This Hotel offered excellent service, the room was perfect and we enjoyed our stay. We ate in the dining room for breakfast and dinner and both meals were of a high standard. We would definitely recommend to others to stay here if they came to the Shetlands and we would stay here again.

A beatiful location with much character and history. Hearing the sound of the sea from my bedroom was very special. Excellent customer service too, I would recommend a visit.

We spent two nights here and loved it. The friendliness of the staff combined with the professionalism of the chef made it a start to remember. Dog owners: although dogs are not welcome in the general areas, the hotel grounds are great and lead straight to the shingle beach. Plenty for the muppet to sniff and lots of rabbits to chase.

Third visit but first with Hotels.com. Always a welcoming reception - nice ambiance and a historic building to boot. A bit out of the way, so a car is required if staying for any length of time. Great food & superb breakfast to order.

We had a lovely big room Yell overlooking the garden. The hotel was peaceful and quiet even though there were some big groups staying. Always plenty of hot water and heating which was needed after being in the cold winds at Shetland. Staff very helpful and polite - they helped us book ferries to Yell and Unst. Breakfast and dinner very plentiful - too much for me at times but you can ask for a half portion. Lovely lounge to relax in on an evening. Highly recommend and we hope to be back at spring time in a couple of years

Fantastic wee hotel, way better than I’d usually get for a business trip. Excellent service-really felt like I was at home. Bang on.
3-night trip

10/10

Great hotel. The staff, in particular- Andrew, Bradley and Stephanie- were excellent. Both our Breakfasts and the evening meal we had were good quality. The Whisky selection was amazing. They are refurbishing parts of the hotel, but it did not have an impact on our stay. Our room’ Muckle Roe’ could accommodate four people. What would have enhanced our stay would have been if the second bed could have been moved to one side and two comfy chairs placed by the window to really appreciate the view from the room.

The hotel didn’t meet our expectations that were formed by their website. Our room looked like it had been recently refurbished and certainly the bathroom had been, however the decoration looked very amateurish- I can paint a door better than the bathroom one. I thought the food offering would be more high end with an emphasis on Shetland seafood but it was fairly standard, nothing particularly stood out. For example one choice was lasagna and it was made with Aberdeen Angus beef and Orkney cheese to give it that locally produced feel. Dundee marmalade is world famous but their choice of Tiptree from Essex and portions of Lakeland butter shows they are not walking the talk. Another area for improvement would be to vacuum more thoroughly, especially the stairs leading to the bedrooms. We still enjoyed our stay and the staff are very welcoming.

This is a lovely old fashioned hotel. Great, helpful staff. We stayed 2 nights and ate in the first night and at a local restaurant the second night. The food was fine, not beautifully presented but very generous. The prawn cocktail was just a pile of prawns in a sauce with a tiny salad garnish. Breakfast was also generous and well cooked. The room was lovely, it was quiet, there was a plug for a hairdryer next to a mirror and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom looked newly refurbished in a small, awkwardly shaped space. In trying to shoehorn a bath with an overhead shower into that space, neither works well. The side of the bath is so high it’s very difficult to get in and out. The H&C taps are the wrong way round. They are also in an awkward position where it’s impossible to top up with hot water without risking a burn. I scraped on the taps getting in. My husband was too tall for the shower head. Had to lean right over the toilet to put things in the bin. A shame it’s been designed like that, there are better options available. The inroom safe was on the floor so difficult to use.
