Albert Hotel

Albert Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This was one of the best hotels we have stayed at. The suite was a very creative design and so comfortable. The staff were amazing in how they made sure we were comfortable. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous in its design which is relatively newly renovated we understood. The management was so helpful . They kept our bags safely until we left for the night ferry. The bar was great and the food at both the bar and restaurant very tasty and reasonable in cost. Also need to mention the staff at Northline ferry who helped us secure comfortable return trip and the tourist information !! A very special place is Kirkwall!!!!"
