The Stromness Hotel is situated just 4.5 miles from the Ring of Brodgar and Standing Stones historic sites and is the perfect base for your visit to Orkney. The narrow, winding streets through Stromness have a unique traditional and historic feel about them, and the contemporary styled Pier Arts Centre offers up a truely inspired harmony between the traditional and the modern.
