"Lovely facilities, very comfy all round. Definitely 4 star or more! Location top too”
Photo of Hostel

Hoy has a fascinating variety of hills, dramatic coastal scenery and low-lying fertile land. Spectacular cliffs bound the north and west of the island, while the southeast cost has many bays. Much of North Hoy is owned by the RSPB, where large varieties of birds live and breed. Off the west coast The Old Man of Hoy, a 137m sea stack, is perhaps Orkney’s most famous landmark and a great place to see puffins. The hostel was completely refurbished in 2005 and now offers high quality 4-star accommodation. All rooms are en suite, with a shower, and have twin beds and a bunk bed. Family rooms are available and one room is equipped for wheelchair access. There is a well-equipped kitchen, lounge area, dining hall and drying area.
