"Both the hotel and the restaurant I think are closed as such, although they belong to the same owners as the nearby Kirkwall Hotel, who use it as an extension of it. We booked at the Kirkwall Hotel, but being 5 they took us here that they said we could be together. We were the only ones in the whole building. No guests, no employees. It wasn't good for him, because it seemed that we were punished for being a large family. The room did not meet the conditions that we needed and suffered several percances and even cold at the beginning. Until I gave the way to turn on the radiators. I didn't have any windows either, just some little Velux on the roof. Breakfast we had to go to the Kirkwall Hotel I would dare to think that this place is reforming it little by little, when they have funds or the opportunity and from time to time, if necessary, they use it. My review is based on my experience, not the status or possibilities of the hotel"

I was surprised to find the shower didn't drain (an unpleasant discovery at 9pm) and the mattress was a piece of rubbish.

I'm afraid the standard of the room was not up to the usual but have been advised they are due an upgrade soon. Rooms: 2 Service: 4 Location: 5

The service was excellent and the bed was very comfortable. I would give the rooms a 5 out of 5, the service a 5 out of 5, and the location a 5 out of 5.

The hotel has been completely refurbished since my last visit and it has been done to a very high standard. They have a variety of rooms and all have modern facilities and beautiful decor. It is a complete transformation from a few years ago.

You don't think about accomodation for mobility impairment until you do. Then it's all you think about. The Shore is outstanding in this regard. Floor level access, no stairs, and the toilet and shower are totally great for those in wheelchairs or walkers. Well done! Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5

The world's smallest room, as you are an annex of the hotel next door you are forgotten about. Uncomfortable bed, can hear everything next door, paper thin walls so kept waking me up. One pillow only. Have no choice to stay here due to hotel shortage due to the festivals. Breakfast is good though. Rooms: 2 Service: 2 Location: 5

Top location. Right in the middle of the action. Great sized room and service from staff who are managing it the kirkwall hotel next door. The room was fine but we had a very noisy neighbour above us. Banging and walking about, water flushing we heard it all. My other suggestion would be to tidy up street frontage The Shore appears shut down and forgotten about on the outside. Out our window in the courtyard was a blue tarp thrown over some items ??? . Presentation matters.

Stayed at the shore on a business trip. No services available at this location as the shore hotel appears to have been bought over as additional accommodation for the Kirkwall Hotel. There appeared to be no staff based in the shore Hotel with all the public areas reception/bar/ restaurant) locked up. This was not known prior to my arrival. Check in/out and meals served from Kirkwall Hotel, however evening meal reservations are required. Unfortunately no availability for a table during my stay to try their menu, which looked good. I stayed in a single room that felt dark and enclosed due to exterior fire escape stairs being directly outside window with no view. Room My colleague stayed in was...
