Large neat rooms with private bathroom, harbour view, for instance. Marvellous and good position in the lovely area, so close to the center of the town, Stromness harbour, and Easy to get in. 10 minutes walk to a superb museum.

I booked a newly decorated room with a view of the sea. The breakfast was hot with plenty of dishes. The hotel staff was very very helpful, not annoying.

Appreciated this hip new hotel : excellent food and lovely friendly and affable staff. The location was good and perfect and the room was spotless. Besides, it was not too far away from Stromness Golf Club. We ate at an excellent restaurant with great food and service. We had a sea view. The service was great, we had 1 fantastic night here...

The location was perfect for a short stay, right near the ferry. Staff were really friendly n helpful. The room had a nice hot shower which was great after a long day. The bar area was chill with a nice atmosphere. Breakfast was delicious and freshly made!
The entryway/closet in our room didn't have a light so it was kinda dark. The pillows were a bit too hard for my likeing.

Perfect Location and Cozy Atmosphere
The breakfast was delicious, especially the porridge, fueling my day of exploring. The atmosphere in the bar was vibrant and cute. The only downside was that the restaurant was closed , limiting dining options.

The location by the harbor provided easy access to local attractions. Staff were friendly.
Breakfast options were somewhat limited for a picky eater.

Charming, Charming, Charming
My small single room was airy with a skylight that offered a fresh breeze and charming views over the rooftops while the harbor view was a lovely bonus. The dining experience was great-enjoying fresh fish and chips was like a culinary hug from the local cuisine!
100% recommend 😊❤️

Perfect harbor views and good food
Super comfy sleigh bed! Dinner was a highlight, had scallops and roasted hake, yum! The staff were really friendly. Just be careful of the pub noise at night. It can get a bit lively.

I really enjoyed my stay, especially the tasty meals and the cozy double room with a huge bed. The hotel had a relaxing lounge area and a beautiful garden you could unwind in. Just a heads-up, the TV remote was a bit finicky, but overall, it was a lovely experience! 😊

missingWrote a review on 22 Junspacious bathroomconvenient locationoutdated decornarrow hallwaysunpleasant corridor smell
The room was well arranged with a surprisingly spacious bathroom. The location offered fantastic access to the ferry and lovely downtown streets. The decor felt outdated, reminiscent of a '70s cruise ship, and the narrow hallways were inconvenient. The smell in the corridors detracted from the pleasant ambiance.
