I do agree with some of the comments that the property has a few minors issues or quick fixes to do like a bath sealer to redo. However, the room was spacious, the restaurant / bar very decent and staff was polite. It had thin walls so be prepared to hear a bit of the neighbors or the dinner area in the morning / evenings.

We originally booked as the hotel was advertised as 'pet friendly' with a private garden area. Thankfully, we had a change of plan and didn't take our dog. When we arrived and someone finally appeared to check us in, after about 10 minutes, we were allocated a small room on the 3rd floor which the wi-fi didn't seem to reach. While the room was just about adequate for a couple, it would not have worked for us with our dog. Also, none of the staff knew how to access the garden as although there was a door from the dining room, we were told this 'wasn't allowed' to be used - we heard other guests asking too. I'd suggest anyone with any specific requirements check with the hotel in advance.

The hotel was a bit worn. The room was very small, but we expected that. Shower was TINY and had mold in it. The food in the hotel restaurant was AWESOME. Based on the moldy shower I would not stay here again.

A friendly welcome and there was fruit at breakfast which was nice. No warning upfront that our bedroom would be reached by 2 flights of stairs - no lift - so my painful tendon certainly got a workout. Stayed for 3 nights and the menu was the same every night - even the specials.

Only drawback was that the car park was at the back of the hotel with a precarious set of steps which took you to the front of the hotel. Not very easy in the dark.

Great room slow breakfast
The room was lovely and quiet ,although the bathroom was a little tired.Bed comfortable room service was very good . Breakfast service needs to be more consistent, some mornings very slick and organised other appeared chaotic , staff appeared over whelmed on occasion. Evening meal menu could do with a little more variety .Reception / bar staff were excellent. An excellent position for town explorations .

The staff were absolutely lovely and very helpful. Unfortunately the rooms (whilst mostly very clean) are stuck in an 80s time warp - not what you’d expect for the price of a room. My other half enjoyed the food, but my veggie curry was watery and bland with soggy veg. The whisky bar has an amazing selection (over 800 bottles!) but it’s a shame that no one working in the bar knows anything about whisky. There isn’t any information about them either so choosing one was taking a stab in the dark. We were really looking forward to trying some whiskies (and we did!) but this was a bit of a let down. It could be so much more.

This hotel was excellent. The staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. Everything was very Covid secure. The food in the restaurant was wonderful, particularly the lamb and we dined there several times as it was the best place to eat in Kirkwall. The staff worked so hard to make our stay perfect

Could do better.
Could do with more, better trained, staff esp in restaurant. For the money, I’d expect the default to room service, rather than having to request fresh towels, etc. Dated. Great location in Kirkwall town centre.

Thank you for your comments, John. In compliance with our Covid-19 Procedures to minimize exposure, we ask if our guests mind if their rooms are not serviced but to please let us know if they require anything i.e. towels, soap, etc. Our Covid-19 Procedures are mentioned at check-in and listed on a card in each room. Post-lockdown, our staff is quite new and are still in training but we do appreciate your patience with this. We are glad you have otherwise enjoyed your stay.

Very pleasant stay.
We travelled to Kirkwall, Mainland Orkney as foot passengers and chose to stay at the Orkney hotel rather than others on the basis of the food we could expect and the warm feelings the bar and restaurant seemed to exude. We were not disappointed in the slightest. Breakfast with local haggis was delicious, dinner the same and the Orkney gin in the Gin bar was delightful Even more delightful was the display of lovely artwork of a very high standard to be found everywhere. The location was nicely central with the bus terminus at less than 10 minutes walk away. The staff were engaging.
