Ferry Inn ★★★

"The Ferry Inn had comfortable and clean accommodations. Everyone on the staff was incredibly friendly and polite. The location really is just about 1 minute to the ferry terminal which also serves as the bus terminal so all your transport needs are steps away. I would return and stay here in a heart beat. I had a few issues. We stayed in the main building on the top floor. This has 3 issues. 1. The stairs to the top floor (in particular) are quite narrow and steep. I have a bad knee and while i could negotiate those stairs if i had any more serious mobility issues it would have been an issue. 2. The ceiling on the top floor is about 6'2" high. I am 6 foot and the ceiling felt close if I were a taller person it would have been a more serious issue. 3. The wifi was very intermittent in our room. When connected it was quite strong but it dropped a few times an hour."

The Royal Hotel Stromness ★★★

"Went for a drink on a Sunday afternoon, the barmaid with long grey hair ignored me at the bar for 5 minutes, walked past twice to chat to her pals, so we left. The pub dog was friendly, but not exactly a warm welcome. Shame as everyone else in Stromness seemed very nice."

Lindisfarne Bed & Breakfast ★★★

"Hostess & host were both very friendly & responsive. Everything was clean & comfortable. Guest had a shared tv room with several comfortable sofas. Breakfast was very good and generous. Ensuite had a very good shower and host cleaned every day and made beds. Great view above Stromness, across pasture with cows. Thank you!!"

The Stromness Hotel by Paymán Club ★★

"Utterly appalling - unbelievably awful."

Stromness Apartments ★★★

"My wife, sister and I stayed here for three nights in Orkney. We stayed in the Meadow View Apartment. It was a positive gem. Two bedrooms both with en-suites and an additional upstairs bathroom. Heaters galore and a well appointed kitchen. The apartment is situated in the countryside just outside Stromness and is quiet. It is a short drive to the neolithic attractions. The owner, Alexander bends over backwards to ensure you are comfortable. I would highly recommend this property. "
