People were queuing to get in at 3pm. Eventually we were given a key and told to find our room on top floor. There was no instruction book in the room, and we had no further contact with anyone during our 3 nights stay.

Very well located and clean guest house. Just be prepared for thin walls. You can easily hear guests above and street noise outside.

Room was large, very comfortable and clean. Check in and check out was very fast annd efficient. Our room faced the street and we could hear vehicles driving by during the night. Other rooms not facing the road might be quieter. No restaurants or food service on the property and it’s a bit of a walk to the restaurants.

The guest house is in a great location, the rooms are spacious and well cared for. It is in a very busy road, so if you are a light sleeper it may be an issue for you, but they do have ear plugs available.

Lovely guest house within an easy walk of the train station and town center. Comfy bed and large bathroom. Apparently it was purpose built as a guest house some years ago, not converted from another building, which explains the size of the bathrooms. No lift. Allowed me to store luggage between checkout and sleeper train departure in the evening.

This was a very nice hotel in the heart of Stromness. Easy walk to shops and restaurants, and staff was very helpful and friendly. Our room was clean with a comfortable bed. Parking is at the ferry parking lot within walking distance, free overnight with a fee during the day. We enjoyed our stay here.
