The units are beautifully maintained, extremely pleasant on a certain level. The location is magnificent, very close to town centre. Moreover, it is just next door to the restaurant, which serves a good range of Whiskies, Gins, cocktails and beers and public areas.

The hotel is just a few steps away from the Orkney Museum and a lovely park at Peedie Sea. The great cooked breakfast made my mornings even better. As a solo traveler, I appreciated how clean and well-serviced my room was , and the owner's attentiveness really stood out as cute.

Perfect place for a weekend in Kirkwall

Super close to the town center! The breakfast spread was awesome with a mix of Scottish and continental options. My room was comfy, but the mattress could use some love, and the hot tap was tricky. Loved the little bar area with good drinks!

Charming Stay with Historical Touch

I recently enjoyed a good stay, appreciating the unique historical charm of the building and the comfort of my room. The breakfast was personalized and delicious, with options pre-ordered the night before. The staff were friendly. The furniture felt a bit dated and could use some upgrades to enhance the overall experience.
