Merkister Hotel, hotel in Gorseness

Located on the shore of Harray Loch and family-run for over 30 years, the Merkister Hotel is a 15-minute drive from the main towns of Kirkwall and Stromness.

Must be the best hotel on Orkney. Wonderful position on Loch Harray. Central for all the key sights. A bonus if you fish is it’s on a loch and John the gillie is a star. Food good. This is a traditional hotel … absolutely not a boutique hotel (long may it last).

    Charming, picturesque area of Orkney.

    Charming, picturesque area of Orkney. Close to the Neolithic sites. Scenery is magnificent and the roads are good. It is definitely worth the effort to get to this northern island. Best eating spots are in one of the towns like Kirkwall which is in the center of the island and the cross roads to all the sites especially the WW2 sites. So much history on this island.
