Review by hotel critic
During my recent stay at Forty Five, John Street, Stromness, I found an inviting blend of comfort and warmth that truly stood out. The hotel's location is perfect for exploring the beautiful Orkney Islands, sitting conveniently near key attractions like the Standing Stones of Stenness and Ness of Brogdar, making it an ideal base for both marine enthusiasts and casual travelers. The hospitality of the owners is memorable; they went above and beyond, even offering delicious homemade breakfasts that showcased local produce. Each morning, I savored freshly prepared meals while enjoying stunning views of the harbour, which was a lovely treat to start the day. My room was comfortable and thoughtfully decorated, providing the perfect retreat after a day of exploration. As a marine biologist, I appreciated the quiet ambiance, which allowed for reflection on the marine conservation efforts in the area. If you're seeking a serene escape with a hint of adventure and personal touch, I highly recommend Forty Five as an excellent choice. It's perfect for couples or small groups seeking comfort and local charm while discovering the wonders of the Orkney Islands.
