The staff were great
8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2026
Very easy to find. Rooms were comfortable and clean. The pub downstairs was very welcoming and it was so close to the ferry. Perfect for our needs.

Great location. Well cared for. Great breakfast. Two good bars, enjoyed live folk music upon arrival. Had dinner at the Ferry Inn - delicious.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2026
Located in the heart of Orkney. Easy to walk to the ferry, zero parking. Breakfast starts 7:30, so if you are taking the morning ferry, don’t get breakfast.
No dinner service, could never find anyone in reception, just left my key on the desk.
