6/10

Staff were all very friendly , but the hotel is rather dated & in need of a re vamp. The dining room is unwelcoming & is like being in a ferry . Line upon line of ghastly Formica topped tables . Very unappealing. Very expensive for quality of the hotel .
1-night trip

10/10

Quick and easy check in and out (at unsociable hours. Friendly staff, and great food. All that I needed for a flying visit.
2-night trip

8/10

Quick and easy check-in and out. Room was large and clean. TV was difficult to control but all that you need was in the room. Breakfast was served which was nice and not a buffet style. Bed was not comfortable and mattress needs to be replaced. Restaurant was fair and not too expensive as the town is a little walk from the hotel.

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

10/10

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.
6-night trip

10/10

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

10/10

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.
8-night trip

8/10

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
9-night trip

8/10

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.
3-night trip

8/10

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.
4-night trip

8/10

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.
4-night trip

8/10

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.
7-night trip

8/10

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

8/10

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.
3-night trip

10/10

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.
1-night trip

8/10

Perfect hotel choice if your travels involve the Northlink Ferry - the terminal is literally across the road. Not really walkable to the town centre. Friendly staff.
1-night trip

6/10

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.
4-night trip

4/10

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

4/10

A 3 night holiday stay. Initial impressions were of a rather tired, dated hotel. The room was clean with adequate but basic facilities. Breakfast was good but spoilt by the filthy windows looking out over the ferry terminal. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
