Royal Oak Guest House
10/10 Excellent
"Most of the rooms have been remodeled so it feels like a new hotel in a classic older Scottish building. Great owners, great service."
Albert Hotel
8/10 Good
"Recently renovated room. Very comfortable and great shower."
Karrawa Guest House
10/10 Excellent
"Our lovely host Fiona gave us a warm welcome! Our room was cozy, comfortable and lacked nothing. Love the tea kettle in the room with a biscuit for bedtime. Easy parking, great breakfast, with something for everyone, even our vegan friend."
Castleyards Apartment 1
8/10 Good
"We had difficulty working around the very small double bed that was in a space so small it was against the wall one side and had about 12 to 14 inches gap on the oyher side . Not good for the mature travellor."
The Ayre Hotel
8/10 Good
"Hotel room was clean and comfortable. Restaurant food was good although the restaurant service was less than average."
The Orkney Hotel
8/10 Good
"Nice location in the town center. Parking available front and rear. Big clean bright rooms with great bed n and pillows and huge bathroom. Breakfast is very good, nice helpful staff and amazing choice of local drinks in the bar."
West End Guest House
10/10 Excellent
"Had a lovely stay thank you."
Kirkwall Youth Hostel
10/10 Excellent
"Perfect 'utilitarian' accommodation for a fan of hostels ... ... The building is not particularly attractive and the rooms are basic and afford no good views ... However, the beds are comfortable, the many bathrooms/shower rooms are newly equipped and excellent, the kitchens are great, the dinning room large & practical, and the lounge very comfortable and equipped with board games & books along with comfy settees. The hostel is a few minutes walk into the centre of town and just a mile from a lovely swimming beach at Scapa where I swam every morning, except for a couple of mornings when I drove a little further to Inganess Beach which is beautiful. For me, so much nicer than a posh hotel because you can cook & eat at any time and fellow visitors always seem relaxed, friendly & chatty ... you just seem to get a much better class of person in a Scottish hostel!"
