There is a great music pub right in the centre of Kirkwall but it wasn't open on the night I was in town. It's called the reel and I have been in it before and it was great. Lucano is a great Italian restaurant but I hadn't booked a table and so could only get pizza and promised to finish before the table was needed. Book ahead would be my tip.

Great tourist centre and Bus station staff.
Great tourist centre and Bus station staff..helpful and great offers on buses covering all island/mainland..Day trip tickets less than £9..and can be bought on buses...Trip to Airport just £1.50!!
Lovely range of shops and restaurant a and museum in centre.
Great to have visited on some days when there was no cruise liner in as town gets rather cramped when excessive crowds in although shuttles and staggered tour departures are helping..Very friendly people in Kirkwall and on the mainland..really go out of their way to help.Make sure to step into The Reel while there, stroll down Scapa Beach and pop into the Scapa distillery for a your and a wee dram!

A nice, quite town with friendly people, the views are spectacular. I really enjoy walking and exploring the streets.
Judith Glue shop and the real food cafe is a jem, the shop is very nice and the food at the cafe is vegan friendly. I didn't have a lot of vegan food options, in this cafe I have found a beautiful place to eat and buy nice products to continue my cooking back home.The staff was extremely helpful not to mention the food that was delicious.

Nice and Orkney was very interesting despite inclement weather. We missed the one day of Summer (Generally happens in June they told us!)visited in Mid August. Must visit Highland Park distillery, their tour and tasting was the best I have experienced.

Historical treasures everywhere.
Historical treasures everywhere. Spotless, friendly,clean air and sea. Beautiful islands and beaches. Good balance of wilderness and civilisation. No litter, graffiti. Spotless toilets in the remotest locations!

Loved it all.
Loved it all. Kirkwall is beautiful in a stunning location with a fascinating history. The people are friendly. More coffee shops would be good for those who don't like pubs and they need to be open on Sundays.Because the narrow streets look like pavements maybe you should warn tourists that these are for pedestrians and motor vehicles. I would love to have stayed longer.
“Had a wonderful stay at this lovely hotel which is in a lovely quiet location nice and handy for the town centre. Very comfortable large room and welcoming friendly hosts.lovely freshly cooked breakfast every morning. Highly recommended”
“The hotel is well located across from the harbour in Kirkwall. The room was plain but comfortable and the staff very friendly. Breakfast was freshly cooked and plentiful. Price was very reasonable. ”
“Very friendly host. Easy check-in (key was in door). Accomodation well adapted to those with additional needs. Easy to find location on stromness-kirkwall road.”
