About The Stromness Hotel
Stromness Ferry Terminal is just along the harbour, making The Stromness Hotel a handy base for arrivals and departures on Orkney. The surrounding town offers plenty to fill the rest of a stay, with pubs, restaurants and eateries within walking distance, and golf, fishing, cycling and watersports all nearby for those wanting to get further out into the landscape. Walkers are equally well served, with routes around the area suited to exploring on foot.
The hotel itself sits at the Pierhead, with en-suite rooms including family options, and free WiFi throughout. A restaurant and bar are on site, serving meals alongside room service and packed lunches for guests heading out for the day, and drinks can be brought straight to your room. Breakfast is included as part of the stay.
Elsewhere, there's a garden for taking the air, a lift for easier access to upper floors, and a laundry service for longer trips. The hotel also functions as a wedding venue, and free on-site parking is available for those arriving by car.
