Ideal for a couple retreat
The breakfast was good, good choice of cooked items and an adequate cold buffet. Our room was comfortable and clean on arrival.
It wasn’t inexpensive, but still acceptable.

Had a fantastic stay with friends! We loved visiting the stunning scenic cliffs and enjoyed some live music in town. The staff were friendly, and the breakfast was top-notch. Plus, it’s a short walk to the ferry terminal. Just keep in mind that the water had a strange smell and taste.
The only downside was the water quality. it had an awful smell and taste which made us avoid using it for drinking.

perfect spot for exploring lerwick's attractions and parks
During my stay, I appreciated the lovely friendly staff and the great buffet breakfast that included the best cooked meals I've had in a while, making each morning a delight as I prepared for my day of exploring the nearby attractions, including the fascinating Mousa, which is just a short stroll away, and the beautiful Broch of Clickimin, both offering unique insights into the Shetland heritage and easy walking routes. however, the hotel's dated decor could use some refreshing touches.

Spacious rooms with great views
I had a pleasant stay with my family. Our twin room was spacious and offered stunning views of Lerwick Harbour, which truly brightened our mornings. The staff were attentive and accommodating, especially with my dietary preferences during breakfast, where the selection was impressive and well-prepared. the Wi-Fi connectivity could be improved as it was somewhat unreliable.

Charming Stay with Delicious Dining Options
We enjoyed five nights in a cozy Twin Room, where the staff's warmth made our family feel right at home. The food at the restaurant was a highlight, especially the hearty local dishes. I recommend trying the vegetarian menu—it's a hidden gem. A lovely place to relax!
