Comfortable, relaxing hotel with good restaurant and bar all at reasonable prices. Front of building facing the harbour could do with a coat of paint but that doesn’t take anything away from the comfortable interior. Would happily stay again. ##### John Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joan 19 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We chose this hotel because it was convenient for us when arriving from Shetland on the Northlink ferry that arrives at 11:30 pm. The shuttle service from the ferry terminal stops right in front of the hotel. The room was spacious with a well-appointed bathroom and a full breakfast was available in the morning. ##### Joan Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ruta 24 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great location, friendly staff, good food ##### ruta Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark 2 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location, walkable to the town centre and restaurants.
