The view of the water was nice. The cleanliness was very good. The mattresses and pillows need to be replaced. That being said, I slept well. The hotel, however, is in need of TLC. The location was excellent. The staff we met was kind. We were grateful for the availability.

Lovely staff, presentable common areas, breakfast choices limited but a freshly cooked breakfast is offered. Unfortunately the rooms are super dated and old fashioned for a premium price over £150 per night. In the uk they would struggle to get £60 per night.

Any lengthy flight can seem daunting, but it's nothing a little preparation can't fix. We've made a list of our top suggestions to ensure your journey flows without a hitch:

  • You'll need to present photo identification such as your passport. To avoid delays while checking in, make sure you reserve your tickets under the same name as your government-issued ID. It's worth having digital copies of your travel documents too, just to be safe!
  • If you're flying direct to Shetland Islands, it's likely you're going to be in the air for quite some time. Take lots of snacks and entertainment to keep you amused. Now is the time to pick up that novel you've been eyeing off!
