Smithfield Hotel, hotel in Twatt

Situated on the Orkney Island, 14 miles from Kirkwall, Smithfield Hotel offers 3-star accommodation with free parking, a bar, and a restaurant. Kirkwall airport is 30 minutes’ drive away.

This hotel is well located, the room was comfortable, but there is no bar and no restaurant (happily there is a Spar in front of the hotel). A lady welcomed us, and immediately left the hotel after our arrival... but we had everything in the room, so no problem with that. Apparently they are expecting a new lease in the coming months, reason why the situation is a little bit strange.

Merkister Hotel, hotel in Twatt

Located on the shore of Harray Loch and family-run for over 30 years, the Merkister Hotel is a 15-minute drive from the main towns of Kirkwall and Stromness.

Must be the best hotel on Orkney. Wonderful position on Loch Harray. Central for all the key sights. A bonus if you fish is it’s on a loch and John the gillie is a star. Food good. This is a traditional hotel … absolutely not a boutique hotel (long may it last).

Waterfront House, hotel in Twatt

Boasting a private beach area and views of sea, Waterfront House is a guest house set in a historic building in Finstown, 5.7 km from Maeshowe.

The view from the room was incredible. It felt like we were on the water. We sat for hours witching the birds on the shore. Just as we were leaving three Curlew flew right past the window - almost a leaving present.

Our room was at the top of the building so it was quiet. The food at dinner was all fresh and we ate our way through the menu with relish.

    An absolutely beautiful place.

    An absolutely beautiful place. If you love nature, hiking, the ocean and plenty of history, this is the perfect place. To take full advantage of Orkney, I would suggest having your own car. We had an amazing time. I would definitely do it again. ❤
