Kirkwall

"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!"

Castletown Hotel

"Excellent breakfast Very helpful and polite staff Good value"

Greenland House B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, spacious en-suite room in historic building. Great breakfast. Friendly and helpful owner. Recommend highly."

Northern Sands Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at Northern Sands, Dunnett. The location was perfect, The staff were great, friendly and helpful. The food here is great, both dinner and breakfast. Thanks for a great stay. Kr Gary & Hayley McLean"

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 Stromness Hotel

8/10 Good

"The location and old world charm. The staff member was very nice and went out of his way to help us."

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."

Albert Hotel

8/10 Good

"Recently renovated room. Very comfortable and great shower."

The Royal Hotel Stromness

10/10 Excellent

"Come and enjoy proper hospitality in a proper hotel with wonderful people. Just like it used to be before life was overtaken by digital awfulness. If you want room service ordered through your TV then stay away. Sensational breakfast (that can also serve as lunch and beyond). Our second visit since 2022, the hotel holds a special place in our lives."

Celtic Lodges

10/10 Excellent

"Wayne was very accommodating. He greeted us on entering the driveway and offered us kickstand pucks to keep us from sinking in the gravel. He was very friendly and suggested places to go. Thank you."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Flotta Isle?

The best area to stay in Flotta Isle is typically near the ferry terminal at Flotta Pier, as this offers the most convenient access and a central base for exploring.This area, though small, is the primary point of entry and departure for the isle. It's where you'll find the island's shop and post office, which are often the main points of contact for visitors.

You can enjoy strolls along the shore, observe local wildlife, and experience the quiet pace of island life, all within easy reach of the ferry for day trips to neighbouring islands.Solo travellers will also find this location ideal for its convenience and the sense of community. Being close to the main amenities means you're never too far from assistance if needed, and it's a good spot to meet locals or other visitors.
