A week’s stay in Lerwick
We were very impressed with the professionalism of the staff.Every meal we had was excellent and the rooms were clean and comfortable
Mary, 7-night trip

The hotel needs an injection of cash to refurbish it but the staff were friendly and cleanliness of the room was good.

Receptionist went above and beyond when I developed a cold and generally feeling unwell. She was very approachable and kind. Couldn't find fault with any of the staff members.
Geraldine, 8-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was an excellent base for exploring the islands. Location next to the ferry terminal is not the prettiest but always something to look at and in easy distance of the town centre. Room was large and comfortable. Food was excellent and staff were invariably friendly and helpful.

Local knowledge from reception is worth more than a guide book. Friendly and helpful staff

Nice Stay in Leerwick
Nice enough hotel. Decor was dated. Room was immaculate. Desk and bar staff members were wonderful and took good care of us.
JOHN, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is a bit tired in condition. However the staff are friendly and helpful and keep the hotel spotlessly clean. Joseph in particular at breakfast stands out but all staff we encountered were great. We would stay here again

Old fashioned but clean. Meals fine. Problems with TV reception from work on roof. Problems solved. GB.
George, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel location ideal for coming off the ferry but after that your away from town. Buses don't run later at night , so it's taxi or lomg walk back. Staff were very good but the decor is dated and dark.changing to brighter colours would transform it.

A very present overnight stay at the Shetland Hotel. Will look to stay again next time in Lerwick.
Robert, 1-night trip

Excellent local food
Although the hotel was rather dour from the outside, it was perfectly nice, if a little old-fashioned, inside. Particularly good was the food. The sirloin steak and kippers were the best we have ever eaten in a hotel or restaurant and are locally sourced. Service was very good and the room was very pleasant - the only negative being that the bed wasn't the most comfortable. A view of the Ferry Terminal made for interesting watching and we enjoyed watching the boating activities as the hotel is right next to the sea.
Penelope, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Further from the town centre than I had imagined.
Stephen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel staff were efficient and pleasant. Our room was clean and tidy. The location across from the ferry dock and close to town was handy. The property needs updating. The furniture, mattresses and decor is worn, but functional. Our stay came with breakfast, but it was not made clear that this was provided.
Marie, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very dated decor. Most of the windows are dirty or have blown and need replacing
alastair, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The beeds in the room was really bad, to soft and you could feel the springs all night. The bedding’s was also horrible especially the pillows. Wi-Fi well it’s there but you can’t use it, because you will loose connection every minute Poor standard compared to other hotels
Kristian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent and efficient front desk staff who were wonderful in providing suggestions of places to visit. Dining room service was a bit hit and miss at times - though food was generally good. Very, very convenient when arriving by ferry as the hotel is located just across from where the ferry docks.
Douglas, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommend this hotel!! The staff is top notch!!! We spoke with Jane quite a bit and she was so helpful with suggestions on what to see and where to go. Anything we needed, we were helped with. The breakfast is great quality and had a nice choice. Rooms are basic but comfortable. We had 3 of us in a room and the room was spacious. Room service was amazing. We had a wonderful stay, and would stay again! We lived Shetland, and it is the people there who make it a special place to visit!! Thank you

The staff were lovely and very helpful, the manager couldn't do enough for you. The room was a bit dated but very clean. The breakfast was very nice too.
Diane, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were very nice and attentive. Room was very clean and beds were very comfortable. Location not very pretty, very industrial. A bit too far from the main village.
Mary Ellen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Food fine, room clean and good size, staff friendly and helpful, location next to port and a few minutes from Lerwick town centre. The only downside was the building was a bit tired. Would use again.
Robert, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a perfect location for people taking the ferry as the terminal is across the street. The hotel has been around for a while, so might seem a little worn, although we found everything clean and our room/suite was lovely. Hot breakfast was really good & staff were pleasant. Walking distance to much of downtown Lerwick in 15-20 minutes. Great hotel!
Anne, 2-night trip
