We had a very pleasant stay at the Royal Oak guesthouse. The room was clean and comfortable. Alice and Eric were very nice and helpful. Eric helped me fix a problem with my bicycle which was stored safely in the garage. The breakfast was a treat and we were able to get a washing done. We will surely return when we are in the neighborhood.

This is by far, the best place we have stayed in. Location was great. Malcolm and Teresa are fantastic hosts. Breakfast was fantastic, just needed to let Teresa know what you wanted from her menu. Beautiful accom so close to the water, big rooms and comfy beds. Highly recommend.

I gave this property 5 stars because there was nothing to dislike. Very nicely decorated and well equipped little house right in the center of Kirkwall that felt like a home from home. I had my choice of the two bedrooms and opted for the back bedroom which was wonderfully quiet with a comfy bed and choice of pillows. The welcome basket was very generous and the price for two nights was very reasonable. It is surrounded by shops and coffee places. I fully recommend this to anyone as a great option to a hotel.

    The hosts made the place extra special. Very helpful and accommodating. A lovely family owned place. Very relaxing. Rooms clean and quiet. Nice meeting other guests in the lounge room. Close to Kirkwall centre. Great place to stay for a few or several days.

    Eric, our host, was very friendly and helpful, recommending local restaurants. We were impressed with his energy, bearing in mind that his wife had just given birth to her first child! The room and bathroom were very well renovated with all mod cons. The shower and heating controls were both easy to operate. A very comfortable and quiet stay.
