The Ferry Inn is a combination hotel/pub with breakfast included on our booking. We ate dinner both nights in the pub restaurant. The food was good & they had several choices for each course. The location was excellent for the Scrabaster/Stromness ferry & it was easy to navigate to Kirkwall & all the sights.

Nice room, loved the custard cream biscuits. Overall very comfortable bed, clean and well presented. I would suggest blackout curtains might work better. Food and was lovely, restaurant gets busy so reservation was required, but would recommend it. Staff were nice and attentive.

Easy access from the ferry terminal and a great bar. Shout out to Euan/Ewan for his excellent whisky and gin recommendations. Bedroom was spacious and comfortable with a view of the harbour. Dinner needs to be booked in advance and is really good quality, top marks to the Chef. Buffet breakfast a little cold, which was a shame as the produce delicious.

The room and location were great and the breakfast was absolutely Devine! The only “negative “ comment is that the shower floor was slippery with no mat or strips on the shower floor to keep you from potentially slipping. Loved everything about this place in terms of our needs as was right across the street from the ferry terminal. No elevators to second floor so be forewarned if you are elderly this might be a negative, but for these two older ladies, we loved the staff and the place.

Clean, modern and comfortable room. Great pub, restaurant was limited in choice and food quality did not match the prices. Good breakfast though. There are very few other dining options nearby. No on-site parking but we were able to park mostly for free on the streets or nearby parking lots.
