A small 10-room harbourside hotel in Kirkwall, Orkney, suited to travellers who want a straightforward base near the water and the ferry terminal.
About St Ola Hotel
St Ola Hotel suits visitors after a no-fuss, well-placed base for exploring Orkney rather than a destination in itself. With just 10 rooms, it has the feel of a compact, easily managed hotel on Harbour Street in Kirkwall, handy for anyone arriving by ferry or keen to be close to the town's waterfront.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning, and the hotel runs a 24 hour reception so arrivals and departures aren't tied to fixed hours. There's a restaurant and bar on site, breakfast is available, and a laundry service covers longer stays. Free WiFi is included throughout.
Kirkwall itself is on the doorstep, with pubs, restaurants and entertainment within easy reach, and fishing and watersports available nearby for those wanting to get out onto the water. Hatston is also listed close by. It's a practical choice for touring Orkney rather than a place built around resort-style extras.
