Beautiful spacious room, with spacious modern bathroom and cosy bed. Lovely breakfasts, excellent cosy private bar. Parking close by/out front if you time it right. Staff - amazing! Chef so lovely and lady on breakfast duty also - helped set up so we could watch the All Blacks v England rugby match early in the morning. Chef also showed some interesting local events being the Orca visiting the harbour. Made us feel very welcome. Breakfasts were great - lots of choice

I had a fantastic stay at The Stromness Hotel. The hospitality was outstanding, and the staff were warm and welcoming, especially Scott and Wendy, who were always ready to help with local tips and recommendations. They truly made me feel at home. The room was spotless and comfortable, with beautiful views of the harbor and surrounding landscape. Breakfast was excellent, and the location is ideal, just a short walk from the ferry terminal, local shops, and the Stromness Museum. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Stromness!

Exceptional stay. The accommodation was excellent and the food was fabulous. The staff are very friendly while remaining professional. The restaurant is highly regarded for its dinner menu and rightly so. However, the breakfast is also excellent with 5 cooked options, including 2 fish options. All the food is locally sourced. I can highly recommended s say here.

    The Orkneys was vey beautiful with fantastic scenery but our trip was spoilt by the Stromness Hotel that we stayed at. (BIG MISTAKE). The owners should go to school and learn how to run a hospitality business as they haven't got a clue, unless you are the same ethnicity as them.

    Stromness is a beautiful sea village that is in many ways untouched by time. The people are genuine and friendly, there are ample places to walk to discover little gardens and views, plenty of unique shops. There are not a lot of restaurants in the evening, but the two that are actively open are fantastic and their staff will make your visit memorable.

    Delightful small historical seaport town built on the side of a hill best seen on foot due to narrow Main Street with many small ‘closes’ off leading to the traditional houses Free parking available in port area and most of old town accessible from there - easy walking Museum is worth a visit When coming ashore from ferry take a break and explore the town - the history is amazing from Captain Cook to John Rae through to the herring fishing and the modern ferry terminal

    The Pier Arts Centre is well worth seeing - awesome architecture as well as art. The Vintage Paper Company (Printing) is a hidden gem, and look out for Otto, the shop dog. The Museum is good to see if you are happy walking through lots of interesting old streets and want to learn more of the social history of the area,

    We spent a week in Stromness which was a good location to visit most parts of Mainland. Stromness itself is a quiet town with limited dining out opportunities (book early to avoid disappointment). Getting a cottage with a view over the harbour is essential.

    Stromness is a small town with an old world feel.

    Stromness is a small town with an old world feel. It is a good location to get across to some other islands (especially Hoy, which is why we stayed there). It is also quite a good location to get to the major archaeological sites. The Stromness Hotel is the only large hotel in the town and this is a functional but rather soulless place (we understand the locals have tended to boycott the place since the current owners decided to make it alcohol free) . We stayed early June and there were only other 2 restaurants plus a couple of take-aways and the restaurants booked up really early (ideally you needed to book at least a day ahead!)
