    A little oasis to return...

    Pros: The staff were excellent, all very helpful. The reception, lounge bar and restaurant were recently refurbished and were beautiful.
    Cons: Room was basic. Next time we need to book a room with a bigger bed.

    Great place, worth the money, and excellent food in the restaurant!

    Pros: Location was excellent, free parking, as well as great service, especially from a lady who took us in for a dinner the night we checked in.. so kind and warm
    Cons: The bathroom head shower, wasnt movable, cant be detached. As far as an adult can easily manage with that, washing children was an absolutely nightmare

    Wonderful

    Lovely stay, lovely view, and a pleasant surprise once inside the hotel too.

    Pros: The hotel was a lovely surprise - on the outside it made you think it would perhaps be basic. On entering however, it became clear the hotel was very large, with a huge spacious lounge area, large restaurant, and an adjacent linked public bar area too, all well decorated and modern looking. We also got the pleasant surprise of a bath as well as a shower, and a nice harbour view too.
    Cons: We didn't know that there was also their own private parking at the rear, with direct entry, so had ended up using the free council parking directly out the front, harbour-side. So this is not a complaint - just info for other guests - you can park in the rear car park and get straight through from the main doors at the back too.

    Great location and comfortable stay. Will definitely return when next in Orkney.

    Pros: Newly refurbished and very clean.
    Cons: Service a little sporadic at times but that was because the hotel and restaurant were very busy.
