I arrived late for checkin-in but everything was left out for me so it was super quick and easy to get into my room after a long journey, which was great!
Room was clean and in a really good condition.
Bed was very comfortable.
The shower was amazing! Very powerful and hot.

Nice hotel in the centre of Kirkwall. Street parking was easy enough and you didn't have to pay overnight. The room was far too warm with all of the heaters on full-blast which was not very eco-friendly. We turned all of them off. The hotel restaurant was nice with good grub. The room was comfy although a little dated. We had a few drinks in the Bothy bar but didn't feel very welcome, the bar staff didn't seem keen to serve us. We wanted to try some local whisky, but felt like we were a nuisance for asking. It probably would have been fine if we'd just gone into the bar for a beer!

The entire staff was polite, friendly, SUPER HELPFUL, and professional. We stayed in room 208. It was huge and it has a large bath tub which is always lovely.
Great old hotel with modern upgrades. Good breakfast and dining options.

The location can’t be beat! Our window was right above the entrance to the pub and did get a bit noisy. The bathroom was good and the bed was okay.

Great visit to Kirkwall!
The Albert hotel was fantastic! It is an older property decorated very nicely! Our room was upgraded to a larger room because there were 2of us! The meal we had in the restaurant was the best we had in our visit to the Orkney’s. The staff was so accommodating and helpful. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it for anyone headed to the Orkney Islands

The Hotel was ideal for our requirements. An area that was open for morning/afternoon coffees etc would have enhanced the facilities.
