  • Very good

    Had a really great stay during the first night of the stay, glad I've chosen it. It was in a marvellous and brilliant location on a windswept island. The breakfast was warm and good, overall food was delicious.

    Well, Wi-Fi was very poor.

    Newly remodelled and modern units with tv from other bedrooms. Bonus point for an electric kettle, central heating, and an iron. Perfect and nice location for Kirkwall, close to the ferry terminal, the ferry over to Scrabster on the mainland of Scotland and the restaurant at Breakfast.

    The room we had included an iron and ironing board, an electronic key card, and coffee/tea makers. It had delightful decor.

    The bed was a bit small.

    Perfect and magnificent spot close enough to restaurant and bar, the pub, and main shopping area. Besides, excellent for visiting Harbour Street. Good hot breakfast, with a lot of food.

    Good food, especially good hot breakfast. Well-trained and very professional staff, free wake up calls and ironing. Magnificent, ideal location in the very nice area. Nearby Helgi's - great place to chill out.

    Very well furnished and reasonably spacious units with great bedding and a good sized bathroom, and the staff were exceptional! The location was very central, short walk to the ferry from Lerwick or Aberdeen, Orkney and the ferry terminal.

    The room was very well furnished and extremely spacious!

    The room with a bath. Location: the hotel was not far from a smuggler's cove, Kirkwall waterfront, and historic attractions. We had goodies and coffee at Willows Coffee Shop, it was located not too far from the venue.
