Cosy, modern ground floor flat in central Kirkwall
10/10 Excellent
"An excellent base for exploring beautiful Orkney. The flat is attractive, comfortable and well equipped, and is in a great location for shopping, restaurants, and places of interest - and also for getting to the bus stationt if you plan to use public transport to get around (we did). Checking in and out was hassle-free. If you have mobility restrictions, I'd contact the (helpful) host before booking as the front doorstep is high and slightly hard to balance on. I was able to step over it though, despite being rather old and small, and maybe a ramp could be used."
"The was a very comfortable and cozy hotel. I had a great time here. I found it impeccably clean, and the cleaning staff was very friendly and helpful. It's walking distance from the downtown shopping area, but still pretty quiet. There is a lovely lounge and bar area that is very comfortable and welcoming. The shower worked very well too. I would love to stay here again!"
"Nice B&B with a good location for seeing Kirkwall and all the sites around Orkney. The hosts were very friendly. Breakfast was great. Room was clean and comfortable."
"The condition of the guesthouse was impeccable. The hosts were great, the breakfast was tasty and the location was walkable to town. The parking was on the premises. Would totally stay there again."
"Lovely old manor house, extremely well kept up. Rooms were quite large and well appointed. Breakfast was excellent as was the attention of John (owner/staff). Loved the Library."
