Smithfield guesthouse

Smithfield guesthouse

10/10 Excellent
"Perfect place to stay in the quiet and laid back village of Dounby as it is close to a lot of archeological sites which are about 10 to 20 minutes away in every direction. Very friendly and attentive staff. Great food as well. Spacious parking in the back. There is a gas station and a market across the street so you don’t have to worry about driving too far to refuel and get food. This place will be my go-to the next time I travel to Orkney Islands!"

"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."

"The hotel has clearly just been refurbished and the entrance area was very nice indeed. I was later checking in and had to wait a wee bit until helped by a member of staff - wasn’t a huge issue for me though. The room itself was lovely - spotless and stylish. Didn’t have breakfast as I was leaving early."

Kirkwall Youth Hostel

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!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in St Mary'S?
The best area to stay in St Mary's is the village centre, particularly around Main Street and the harbour.This area is the heart of St Mary's, offering easy access to essential amenities and the island's ferry services. Main Street is where you'll find most of the local shops, cafes, and restaurants, and it's a pleasant area for a stroll. The harbour is a focal point, with boats coming and going, and offers lovely views of the water.Couples looking for a relaxing break will appreciate the convenience of staying in the village centre. You'll be within walking distance of several eateries for evening meals and can easily catch a boat for day trips to other islands from the harbour. This allows for an easy experience without needing to rely on taxis or long walks.For those who enjoy a bit more seclusion but still want good access, staying slightly outside the main village, perhaps along the roads leading towards Hugh Town, can be a good option. You might find properties with more expansive views or larger gardens, providing a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring.
