The Ayre Hotel

The Ayre Hotel

8/10 Good
"Very clean hotel, modern rooms, good elevator, excellent breakfast buffet. Wifi could be a bit spotty, but that was all over Orkney at times, so outwith their control to some degree. Very convenient location, just a short walk to the cathedral and high street. "
