Top Mainland Hotel Reviews
West End Guest House
10/10 Excellent
"Rue calme, mais près de tout. Nuit silencieuse. Consignes claires"
The Ayre Hotel
8/10 Good
"Hotel was great"
Karrawa Guest House
10/10 Excellent
"You can tell the staff enjoy what they do, the room was a lovely place to stay and i was well taken care of. the room was clean warm and spacious, I will defiantly return."
Lindisfarne Bed & Breakfast
10/10 Excellent
"Very friendly hosts, nice room with lovely view. Excellent breakfast"
Smithfield guesthouse
10/10 Excellent
"Easy parking and my room was spotlessly clean, breakfast was cooked to order and was delicious No meals in the evening was the only downside but I was able to get evening meals without having to travel too far"
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!"
The Shore
10/10 Excellent
"Very nice accommodation, I have stayed before so I knew what i was doing into, I will be back."
Albert Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Loved it there."
The Orkney Hotel
10/10 Excellent
