Great place in Shetland

Our experience in Shetland was greatly enhanced by our hotel stay. The staff were very helpful. Particularly Scott and Curtis at breakfast. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The amenities were very good and useful. Even though it was a distance from Lerwick it was definitely the correct choice to stay.

A nice hotel with very helpful staff. Some minor issues on our arrival which were sorted out immediately. The problem was with Expedia booking, not the hotel. Absolutely perfect for our visit which was for a business trip. We will definitely go back next time we are in Shetland.

2 nights in Brae

This is a nice wee hotel in Brae. My room on the ground floor had a somewhat more utilitarian feel to it than previous stays on the upper floor, however friendly staff and good food. Given hotel prices in Lerwick just now it represents value for money.

The reception staff was very helpful. Check in was quick and easy. The restaurant and bar were exceptional. Dinner options had a few changes each evening. Book early because bus services like this location. Our room was very nice with a view of the water. Breakfast was great and quick. Check out was easy.

Comfortable friendly stay

Charming friendly staff, nice hot full Scottish breakfast included. Easy to find and easy parking. Option of dinner - sadly this is usually for hotel guests only, but they accommodate when they can. We enjoyed one dinner there and it was wonderful. I had the poached salmon and my spouse had steak pie, both delicious. The room was small but spotless, and the bed very comfortable. Would definitely recommend!!
