I had a fantastic stay at The Stromness Hotel. The hospitality was outstanding, and the staff were warm and welcoming, especially Scott and Wendy, who were always ready to help with local tips and recommendations. They truly made me feel at home. The room was spotless and comfortable, with beautiful views of the harbor and surrounding landscape. Breakfast was excellent, and the location is ideal, just a short walk from the ferry terminal, local shops, and the Stromness Museum. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Stromness!

    It‘s huge and perfect for families (not for us being a couple with a dog though). The location is rather quiet and a good start for touring the Orkneys by car. Beds are comfortable.

    The cottage was lovely, very spacious and clean. It is perfect for anyone with pets or children as has a lovely kitchen with dining table and 3 big bedrooms. The living room was spacious and comfy. We found the location good as we didn't want stay in the middle of town as well as had a car that allowed us to travel. It has a massive garden which was great for the dog.

    Amazing house, between farm and old stone mill, otherwise surrounded by pasture. Perfect heating for all rooms is available - good for Orkneys weather. The apartment is between Stromness and Kirkwall (closer to latter). Beautiful sandy beach can be reached by 30 minutes walk along a path just across the road. Pet/dog friendly!
