The Scapa Flow Visitor Centre and Museum is a national museum that explains the central role that Scapa Flow, and particularly the islands of Hoy, Walls & Flotta played in the defence of Briatin during both World Wars. The museum itself is closed during 2018 and 2019 for major renovation but the rest of the site at Lyness is still open and well worth a visit.
After a day experiencing the wonders of Hoy, it was nice to spend the night at the very welcoming Stromabank Hotel in a clean and modern room. The (new) owners did everything possible to make our stay a pleasant and enjoyable one. Excellent breakfast with amazing views! Well worth supporting the owners who are starting out on this venture.

Takes a booking, including a 240 deposit, then cancels it the next day via email and then doesn't answer the phone. It may be a lovely place, the food might be nice, but the customer service is dreadful and unbecoming of the Orkneys. Thanks for your advice that alternative accommodation is available - you can be certain that you won't be getting any of my money when we do visit Hoy.

We had a fantastic stay at the Stromabank Hotel, Chris and Jade were very welcoming and friendly, allowing us to check in slightly earlier as it was a very wet day. The room was nice and clean with everything you would need, and the WIFI was fine for checking emails/social media. It was lovely to have a view from our bedroom window across to Switha and the Pentland Firth.
We had a lovely evening meal, the portion sizes were very generous and the food was delicious. Our breakfasts the next morning were also very good. I'd highly recommend and we will definitely return for another visit soon.

From the arrival, the landlady welcome us really warmly. Rose took us around and up to the bedroom. We then went to the bar and stayed few hours which allowed us to meet some of the locals. Again a very warm welcome. We had dinner and the food was well cooked and really nice. Really enjoyed our stay and we will be returning. Thanks once again for everything. Sophie & Michael
