Excellent location
Staff in Kirkwall hotel very friendly and restaurant quite good
Unprepossessing entrance , grubby difficult stairs to first floor.
Very uncomfortable mattress
Good location, quiet, good wifi, good shower
Room was rather small, 2nd floor but no lift. A small fridge would have been welcome.
Conveniently located with parking nearby.
No lift.
Handy central harbour location and good to be able to get a single room considering how high hotel prices are. Good facilities eg ironing board, great to have real coffee and cafetière in room. Good shower.
The entry hall to the Shore feels neglected and there’s no signage to door leading to rooms. Also bad stains on landing carpets.
Lovely place to stay

Great location
No facilities eg restaurant on-site. Short walk to sister hotel.
A very convenient location near the ferry terminal (about 1.5 miles) and not too far from the airport. For arriving on the ferry at a late hour, the public bus transport to the hotel was great.
The bedding is high quality something I really appreciated as so many hotels are not.
The room is very small, and they need more shelf space for things like the teapot and other. The sink tended to clog.
Friendly
Bathroom needs hooks, anti skid in shower
Thought I was getting a single bed for my 2 night accommodation, got a double bed - yay! Room was very clean and comfortable. All items that I needed were provided, there was even an iron and ironing board available. The Shore is in a great location for ease of access to the town centre.
The room had 2 windows, but I closed the blinds down to avoid the view of the bins - not really a dislike as it was easily solved and during daylight hours I was out and about in town!
The shore is now part of the kirkwall hotel and so seems to have been forgotten about. Its a bit odd - I was bombarded with emails from them promising an "Extraordinary stay" and fantastic service yet they didnt seem to want to know me when I checked in - presumably as I was staying at the shore hotel. Reception staff (at the Kirkwall hotel) were mixed - some were quite unhelpful & bordering on rude while others particularly later in my stay were much more pleasant. There were also quite a few maintenance issues with the room. The bathroom tapped dripped & the toilet roll holder was broken. From my perspective the whole arrangement of running the shore hotel from the kirkwall hotel doesn't seem to be working out well for guests.
The position, the room is very clean, staff ready and gentle. If you will go on Orkney, it's nice to go here.
Never. There is only a family on the room above my room so noisy, but it's not an hotel problem.
So, for the hotel, everything was nice.
Location, warm, clean and comfortable.
No view from room.
Locality to Kirkwall town although I arrived late at night.
Room was above a laundry. Dryers running at 5.30. Very noisy. Window blinds don’t fit in windows very well. Bathroom extractor fan incredibly noisy.
