"The hotel is a lovely old building, having said that it's in need of investment, carpets showing there age, old miss matched furniture, the beds, well the bedding was clean but I think noah slept on them when they were new, as for staff except for check-in we didn't see any, I suppose i could have gone looking, but should I really need to.

Top Hoy Island Hotel Reviews

Greenland House B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Exceptional property exquisitely decorated end maintained: we felt like we were staying in a grand country house. We were made to felt very welcome and we felt very comfortable. Breakfast was a real treat and the cooked breakfast was absolutely delicious. Thank you I’m sure we’ll be back"

Northern Sands Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Comfy clean room although a little small. Breakfast and dinner very good. free wifi and parking were very useful. EV charger in the car park came in handy"

Albert Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel has clearly just been refurbished and the entrance area was very nice indeed. I was later checking in and had to wait a wee bit until helped by a member of staff - wasn’t a huge issue for me though. The room itself was lovely - spotless and stylish. Didn’t have breakfast as I was leaving early."

Castletown Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff were very friendly and the room sizes were great. Breakfast was very nice. The only downside was the car park is not very large so I had to park on the street, but was not the biggest issue. Was overall a good experience"

Forss House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful location, rooms, excellent food, very attentive staff. Laundry was ok."

Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff. Very friendly and pleasant to talk to, although there was a feeling that the administration could be improved. We had to pay an unexpected £48 for breakfast when we arrived and then received a bill for dinner two days earlier. This was no question dishonesty; it was poor organisation. Breakfast was a disappointment. They boasted about the quality of their breakfast, but it was dried out from being "kept warm". On the other hand, my wife asked for a smaller main course at dinner, and they charged half price. Parking. It was available, and they had electric charging points. We didn't use them because we didn't bring our EV, but we appreciated that they were there."

Pentland

10/10 Excellent

"Good hotel to stay in prior to ferry crossing to Orkney"

Manor House

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at Manor House! It is a perfect convenient location if you’re catching the Scrabster ferry. The rooms were spacious and clean. The property is family run and they were wonderful people! We had a delicious dinner at the restaurant and they offered breakfast as well with both continental and a full Scottish hot breakfast options to choose from."

The Orkney Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We were very lucky because both times we parked at the hotel, we got one of the 2 slots in front of the hotel, so we didn't have to try and find the additional parking lot, but the staff did give us a map to find it. Keep in mind that there is no lift, so depending on your floor you need to carry your bags up. The 23kg bag was not much fun to take up and then down 2 flights of stairs. The food for breakfast was very good whether the cereal/yogurt/fruit or the from the menu. The staff in the breakfast area were really good. The front desk is a little wonky because even the person in the office there isn't as helpful as the front desk clerk who isn't there most of the time, but who is very helpful when you can get them. The WiFi isn't extremely fast, but I was able to work, especially in the library where there was power. It would be nice to have higher chairs with tables other than coffee table height. Even in the room there isn't a desk to work at. We were overall very happy with the stay and the Italian restaurant across the street was perfect for eating early."
