Ayre Hotel & Ayre Apartments ★★★

"La ubicación es muy buena, la estación de autobús que regresa al aeropuerto, varios restaurantes no están lejos, hay paisajes marítimos. Las instalaciones son viejas, pero todavía aceptables, y el calor no tiene problemas. Acaba de entrar en la casa con humedad y sería mucho mejor abrir las ventanas. En cualquier caso, es una pequeña ciudad insulare, y eso es lo que se ha pasado."

The Kirkwall Hotel ★★★

"Really comfortable stay in lovely refurbished room with harbour view. Breakfast was ok but decided to eat elsewhere in evenings."

Grainbank Mews ★★★

"I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Grainbank Mews whilst attending to work related business on the island of Orkney. I met the owner on my first evening who was charming, engaging and helpful. The room was nicely appointed, very clean and spacious with a great “wet room” en-suite. Breakfast was first class and certainly provided that much needed early morning boost! If you are looking for family operated accommodation, in a good location then you must certainly book a stay at the Grainbank Mews - You will not be disappointed."

West End Guest House ★★★

"Be careful when booking here based upon the reviews. This establishment has downgraded its offering from a full service hotel to a guest house offering B&B only. The guest house is largely unstaffed. Check in is a key box on the wall, check out is a letter box to drop off your keys in. There's no dining room offering evening meals, and no bar. My room was simple but adequate. There are tea and coffee facilities, and you can help yourself to top ups from a central store. Breakfast comprises a limited hot menu, which is cooked to order, alongside a coffee machine, juices, cereals and toast. Service from the front of house breakfast team was good. Location wise, it's a 10 minute easy stroll down the main shopping street to the harbour. Price wise, £95 per night is high for what's on offer. Is it comparable with other similar establishments in Kirkwall? I don't know. But whilst the West End is fine, I've paid less for better places many times. "

Royal Oak Guesthouse ★★★

"Lovely experience. Spacious room, clean and well appointed. Very reasonable price with excellent full breakfast included. Welcoming friendly staff. Not in the center of town."

The Shore ★★★

Albert Hotel ★★★

The Orkney Hotel ★★★

"Attended for dinner and a couple of drinks. Manger/barmen with the chain around his neck needs some hospitality training/ attitude change. One guy was his first shift, and yes first pint not fantastic as it wouldnt be in a new place, but the next one was a lot better and he is a cracking guy and a keen leaner. Bar manager guy however should've had a new start observe for an hour or so at least rather than being let loose from the off, surely the basics of teaching someone/managing someone. He also badmouthed said new start to people at the bar, when said new start popped away for whatever reason, which is just unprofessional. Also it is always a reflection on the person who is the boss and trainer rather than the new employee. We said the manager that the first pint was flat, which it very clearly was, and asked for a new one. We were however assured by the manager that it was just the glasses and that he wa working his way throuhh the bad ones, even though he saw that new start hadn't quite started the pint correctly and that it needed a couple of seconds of running before going in the glass. Manager instead of starting fresh just finished off the first pint, especially after it had been poured and then clearly evidenced that it was flat, just pour a new one which another publican had a good pint of si it was possible. Manager however just poured it into a new glass. Which again failed. Husband had to swirl the pint a few times before any sip taken to make it in any way palatable. Second pint received was far better as the new start had got the knack by then. However I would've expected his manager to just do a fresh pint for the first one, rather than just swap the glass when it was so clearly a flat pint. It wouldn't have exactly cost the business much and did leave us doubting their service an quality thereof. At end of night I went to bar to pay and as I got close to bar the bill was just already presented to me without my asking for it first. I get it that that was obviouslywhat I was up for but no eye contact qas made by said manager or acknowledgement and it was just slapped down in front of me and said manager stepped away. Just basic manners at end of day. Obviously didn't tip which he didn't even seem to want to try and gain, as the bill value had already presented in card machine a few seconds after the bill I hadn't asked for was presented to me. Not that after the manager's service we were going to tip anyway. We did however want to tip the new start who is a sound guy and a quick teach which is what you want in hospitality but didn't have the spar echange to pass to him directly rather than via car which would likely go to the business. Hopefully he can put up with his boss going forward. Food was tasty enough. Just service from the manager ruined the experience."

Karrawa Guest House ★★★

"It was a very cozy guesthouse. Anyway, it's close to the local bus stop, but it's hard because there are only a few buses."
