The location was close to the standing stones and Ring of Brodgar.
The reception was accommodating when we had to leave early and could pack our breakfast.
The taxi service is right around the corner, which is useful to get around when the designated driver would also like a pint.

Breakfast options were available; cereal, bread, croissants, eggs. Tea & coffee in the room along with a mini fridge containing complementary water, juice, milk and chocolate.
View from the room was incredible, and the location was peaceful although it was beside a road.
The bed was very comfortable and I got a great sleep. The accommodation was very modern and well kept.

Despite being un-manned, the process of getting keys and the pre-check in info was all very good. Rooms were fine and clean, good shower. Nice touch to have wine glasses and crockery/cutlery in the room so if you wanted to get a takeaway you could bring it back.

Our room was at the top of the building so it was quiet. The food at dinner was all fresh and we ate our way through the menu with relish.

Great location - close to the town centre. The room was an ok size
Located in Stromness and with Standing Stones of Stenness reachable within 8.5 km, The Royal Hotel provides a restaurant, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a bar.
Well worth the ferry ride and then some! Between Stromness and Kirkwall, neolithic and medieval ruins, beautiful scenery, the creative trail, educational opportunities, shops and cafes and restaurants and bars, there is so much to see on the Orkney Islands -- we just barely scratched the surface. We didn't even get off the main island, much to my regret. Seriously: However much time you're planning to spend here, double it, then triple that. It still won't be enough.

Situated in a stunning location, the hotel had everything I could have asked for. Great food, a nice bar and warm friendly staff. Even provided us with a packed lunch as we had to leave before breakfast on the last day to catch our ferry.
