Fodor's Expert Review Ayre Hotel
Ayre Rd., Kirkwall, Orkney Islands, KW15 1QX, Scotland
This large, functional hotel by the harbor offers ample accommodation choices—including a wing of nine spacious, self-catering apartments—plus a good bar-restaurant. Public rooms are spotless but lack character, while the modern guest rooms combine light wood, creams, and purple-accented soft furnishings. Ask for a room with a good sea view on an upper floor to avoid a room around the back.
PROS
- great for families and groups
- some rooms have great sea views
- location near the harbor
CONS
- uninspiring parking lot views from some rooms
- feels like a chain hotel
- used by tour groups often
