House was lovely, very nicely kitted out with a modern good quality kitchen and bathroom Everything was super clean and tidy. Was really helpful that dishwasher and washing machine tablets were provided.Beds were very comfortable. It's a great location for exploring Orkney, only a short drive to get to most places. Lovely views down to the water.

Great location in Kirkwall and we had been looking forward to this trip for a while.

Great location, comfortable house, lovely host

We've stayed in a few youth hostels, so we knew what to expect. Kirkwall youth hostel was clean, warm and convenient. It had good kitchen facilities, and the communal spaces worked well. The bedroom was fine, with a generous en-suite bathroom.

The staff were very friendly and very understanding when the airline cancelled my flight and lost my luggage. The Youth Hostel is really close to town and supermarkets which make it a really convenient location :) Googlemaps a must for figuring our bus times - plus the lovely folks in the travel centre. Lovely place to visit, coming back and I'll be staying in the YH again when I do! :)

Convenient This is a youth hostel still many people the same age as me here, old generation. Had washing machines and drying room. Ideal for backpackers and cyclists. Quiet and comfortable Full kitchen facilities

Lovely responsive host. Great location in centre of Kirkwall. Locksafe for front door. Quiet. I stayed in January. Central heating in living room works well, and bathroom is warm too with a good, but compact size shower.

Quite possibly the best hostel we have stayed in and we are both volunteers for YHA and in the past SYHA!
