Property is going through some renovation. They have a little bit more to complete. It's looking good and it did not effect our stay in the least bit. The hotel is close to fuel, groceries and a distillery. My recommendation is to stay in their apartments.

It was wonderful to have the additional space an apartment provided. The easy parking allowed a stress free return home after a stressful day of driving on the left hand side of the road! The location is perfect.

The Ayre hotel was fine and functional. The room was clean with basic amenities and a somewhat hard bed. The shower was nice and strong. The staff were busy but helpful when needed.

Room was located far from elevator, and several flights of stairs had to be navigated with heavy bags. Staff should have asked in advance if this was OK given one’s physical abilities.

We enjoyed this hotel very much - very efficient and pleasant staff, nice large room and very clean. It's opposite the harbour and our room overlooked this so we had a great view. We also dined there twice - the food was very good and highly recommended. Bar a little noisy and brash for us but a nice range of whiskies and local real ale on draught. Overall a great place to stay in Kirkwall and would happily stay there again.

Great location not far from the ferry terminal.

A very good room overlooking Kirkwall Bay with a large, comfortable double bed. With the hot weather during our stay the room was uncomfortably stuffy during the day. This was not helped by the only opening windows being restricted toplights. The only meal we had was dinner on our final night, which was excellent. Service all round was faultless and very friendly. The room and all public areas of the hotel wer very clean but, sadly, there was no bath mat (readily supplied)or worse, no toilet brush in the room. Would be very happy to stay again.

This is as central a location to Kirkwall as it gets. I booked this hotel as my accommodation for a three day Orkney tour, and it provided exactly what I needed. The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, it was quiet, and the wi-fi was good.
