This little hotel had big in-room comforts, a private bar area on main floor, wonderful included breakfast, and friendly staff. No elevator, but they did help with luggage. Only downside was limited parking. A problem in the whole city, not just the hotel. They did help with that as well. Evening meals were available in their sister hotel, the Ferry Inn, just a few blocks away. Reservations a must!

Lovely large bed and very spacious room that was clean and well serviced throughout the week. Plenty of options at breakfast that sets you up nicely for the day. Very helpful staff that were engaging at all times. I did not use the bar but it was always busy and very popular. If travelling around, the hotel is well placed to reach the various ferry ports. Would definitely use again.

Great place to stay, large and comfortable room which was nice and quiet even though it's above the bar. The breakfast was lovely too. It's shame they don't serve evening meals in the back lounge area of the bar as it looked a nice cost area. We would definitely stay here again.

Went for a drink on a Sunday afternoon, the barmaid with long grey hair ignored me at the bar for 5 minutes, walked past twice to chat to her pals, so we left. The pub dog was friendly, but not exactly a warm welcome. Shame as everyone else in Stromness seemed very nice.

Hotel looks bit drab from outside but inside is more modern and updated. Comfy room and bed, shower good, lovely breakfast, friendly staff. Great photos in breakfast room, lovely dinner served in sister restaurant just down the street, no on street parking as such narrow streets in Stromness but parking is very close. Very safe for walking in the evening and climbed to the view point behind the hotel in the morning. Terrific view of several islands in the sunshine, wonderful. So much to see and do in Orkney, could stay for longer

We had room 16. Great views of Loch and Lewis Castle. Room was huge and had a great shower. Dinner was great in HS-1. Alacart is served in the main restaurant but we arrived too late to get an early booking. So book restaurant prior to arriving. Only 3 minutes away from the ferry it was extremely convenient. Highly recommended.

We stayed two nights at the hotel. We received a very helpful e-mail prior to arrival advising of check in arrangements, directions & places to eat. We had a very warm & friendly arrival and our room was excellent. It was spacious, spotlessly clean, comfortable beds & we had no issue with noise. Breakfast is served in a lovely dining room with lots of choice and a very good cooked breakfast. Chef & dining staff were very friendly and went above and beyond to help us. Wonderful hospitality. We will definitely be back and certainly will recommend the Royal Hotel to anyone visiting Stromness.

Large room, comfortable bed, everything was clean. There is noise from the pub downstairs but it quiets down pretty early and you can put in earplugs (we live in a city and are used to street noise). Breakfast was generous and the scones were particularly delicious. Easy walk to/from the Ferry. We would stay here again!
