"We were very pleasantly surprised to learn our 1 room family suite had 2 separate bedrooms. Beds were very comfortable and the bathroom was nice. Only issues were that we only had 1 key which made it tricky every time we went separate places. Also there was an illuminated exit sign in the king bedroom we had to cover up it was so bright, and when others shut their doors it would thump ours. Loved the skylights, was a bit stuffy but those helped. Loved the breakfast!"

"A very friendly welcome, they were happy to accommodate our very late (11.30pm) arrival after we travelled there on the ferry. The owners have recently taken it over and in the last few weeks completed an overhaul of the bar/restaurant area which looks lovely. We didn't try the evening meals but the breakfasts were phenomenal, a proper Scottish breakfast that really sets you up for the day. Very friendly hosts helped us to work out what to do during the day and suggested good walks and so...

Top Orkney Hotel Reviews

The Ayre Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Comfy room, excellent service, perfectly located."

Albert Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, central to everything and easy to get to from the North Link Ferry. Orkney is lovely and the people wonderful IF you stop and listen. Will be back."

The Orkney Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff really friendly and helpful, nice quiet room as we had our dog. Lovely breakfast."

Karrawa Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable rooms, great breakfasts"

Graemeshall House

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely and accommodating host with lots of local knowledge and history. Spacious, comfortable and private rooms. Breakfast was delicious with a great selection. Would come back any day and highly recommend to anyone. The personal touch and interaction with the host was appreciated and the perfect touch one would ask for a true Bed and Breakfast experience."

Royal Oak Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"The owner was so warm, hospitable, and willing to help with any problems I had. He really went out t of his way to make me feel comfortable and cared for. Breakfast was wonderful---lots of hotels and cold choices in a clean, cozy breakfast room. Parking lot was easy to enter and leave with ample space for all cars."

The Sands Hotel

8/10 Good

"This was expensive for what it was but I guess there are a lot of tourists in Orkney and not a lot of accommodation! Over £200 a night for a small room, double bed (not king). The rate did include breakfast, which was adequate (order from list the night before). The hotel did have a restaurant - food was fine - and a bar and friendly barman. Staff were lovely altogether. I have never been to Orkney before so can’t make any comparisons but I suspect this may be among the better places to stay. Lots of room to park the car. Sea view."

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."

Murray Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the tour of the facility and our room. Help with parking was so useful for ease of getting out of the lot. My wife needed medicine kept cold and ice packs frozen and had no issues having this done for us. Because we were leaving before breakfast a to go meal was provided for us."
