Smithfield Hotel, hotel in Swannay

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.

The location was close to the standing stones and Ring of Brodgar. The reception was accommodating when we had to leave early and could pack our breakfast. The taxi service is right around the corner, which is useful to get around when the designated driver would also like a pint.

    Loved the apartment, modern kitchen bathroom, great décor.

    Loved the apartment, modern kitchen bathroom, great décor. Richard was a very good host Just lacked a few extra touches, no teapot, no shampoo, soap or egg cups. Would have liked some milk in the fridge when we arrived and maybe a small welcome hamper considering that there was no breakfast
