Merkister Hotel, hotel in Swannay

Located on the shore of Harray Loch and family-run for over 30 years, the Merkister Hotel is a 15-minute drive from the main towns of Kirkwall and Stromness.

Must be the best hotel on Orkney. Wonderful position on Loch Harray. Central for all the key sights. A bonus if you fish is it’s on a loch and John the gillie is a star. Food good. This is a traditional hotel … absolutely not a boutique hotel (long may it last).

The Royal Hotel, hotel in Swannay

Located in Stromness and with Standing Stones of Stenness reachable within 8.5 km, The Royal Hotel provides a restaurant, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a bar.

Outside of hotel bit disappointing but inside was much better. Enjoyed our dinner at their restaurant down the street. Lovely sleep, good shower, lovely breakfast. Loved the pictures on the breakfast room walls and the staff were informative. There is no on-street parking outside the hotel due to the narrow streets of Stromness but the parking is only a few minutes walk away. We had a great walk in the evening and in the morning went uphill to the viewpoint behind the hotel. Fabulous view over several islands in the sun- stunning! Orkney is just amazing

    Loved the apartment, modern kitchen bathroom, great décor.

    Loved the apartment, modern kitchen bathroom, great décor. Richard was a very good host Just lacked a few extra touches, no teapot, no shampoo, soap or egg cups. Would have liked some milk in the fridge when we arrived and maybe a small welcome hamper considering that there was no breakfast
