The hotel is a little bit further a out of than we thought. It overlooked the ferry port. We enjoyed watching the ferries (we are old). The hotel food was excellent and reasonably priced, compared to the town. At weekend you needto book in the town. The breakfast was good. The staff were lovely. We stayed a week,so they got to know us. We'll be back. On a another note, we are thinking of moving to Shetland.

It’s probably the ugliest building we’ve ever stayed in, but better inside. Our room was rather ‘tired’ - wallpaper peeling off, large crack in the basin, but was clean. Food was really good, and excellent breakfast.

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

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.

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.

Excellent location for Aberdeen to Lerwick ferry. About a mile from city center. I walked a lot.
Verified review

The food was good and there was plenty of choice. The staff particularly in the restaurant were excellent and always attentive which always adds to a stay. The location was good with plenty of parking My only slightly negative comment is that with the great view we had of the harbour would have been better had the windows externally been cleaned Would stay here again I

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

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.
Verified review

6/10 Good

We found the Shelton to be great for travelling by ferry. It’s a short walk to the city center. The included breakfast was a nice benefit with a continental or hot option. We would have liked a longer breakfast hours. We did find it a bit cheeky that the restaurant/bar manager wanted to charge us £3.50 for a glass of ice to take back to our room.

Liked that the property was near the terminal and had things to walk to. Staff was friendly and helpful. It’s an older hotel and some rooms are showing their wear. Our room was very musty.
