The location is perfect, the staff friendly and the room large and clean. Breakfast was good, especially the rhubarb marmalade.Both the cooked and the continental. On Sunday night there was a session in the Bothy bar and, since Iam a piper , I was invited to join, nice evening. T.R. Anderson more

Booked in for 1 night and stayed for 2!. The staff were extremely very friendly and helpful. The hotel was modern and very clean. Breakfast was great. Having stayed in 4* & 5* hotels all over the world, I would rate the kingsize beds at the Albert as the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever slept in. Was definitely worth... more

We stayed for 2 nights and paid £115 per night. For that price we expected a boutique style hotel with excellent service and breakfast but were disappointed. We could not fault the bedroom and bathroom - both clean and modern style with a freeview TV. The bed was very soft. However, the cooked breakfast was poor - the bacon was... more

Found this place by accident after being horrified by the Kirkwall Hotel and looking for an alternative. The Albert is everything the KH is not...clean, modern and warm. Everything about this place was excellent. Beds are comfy, the room I was in (205) was a good size, everything is modern and clean, and the staff I met were friendly and... more

Arrived late and enquired about a room. They offered us a superior double at £50 below listed price. The room was excellent, very modern chic. A flat screen TV with freeview, and free internet connection. A superbly comfortable bed too. We didn't eat at the Hotel that night, but breakfast was excellent and the waitress friendly and helpful, although there... more

Arrived In Kirkwal for business staying one night in the Albert Hotel, okay pricey but the rooms excellent. They have recently been refurbished October 2007, and they are kept very nice and very clean. The double bed I had was the most comfortable hotel bed I have slept in, the thick bedspread made it very homely. Tea and coffee facilities,... more

My wife and I stayed in the Albert Hotel for 5 nights during a recent holiday in Kirkwall and was most impressed with our accomodation. We requested and were given a quiet room (Room 201) after reading some of the previous comments about these premises on Tripadvisor. The room was excellent - modern, clean decor with not one but two... more

I do not wish to be overly critical about the Albert Hotel. The management has clearly gone to a great deal of effort refurbishing this property but unfortunately there are some fundamental problems with this hotel that make it very difficult to recommend to others. At first glance my room appeared nicely refurbished, boutique cues clearly drawn from Ian Shregar's... more

I spent one night in the Albert Hotel during a business trip to Orkney. The staff were pleasant and the room clean and newly refurbished - with a comfortable bed, cotton sheets and a flat screen tv. However, the hotel was unbearably noisy. The bothy bar below my room was incredibly loud, making rest and sleep virtually impossible. That coupled... more
