Hotels With breakfast in Shetland Islands, United Kingdom

We stayed in room 11 upstairs in June 2024. The room was very small, with a low ceiling under the dormer. The double bed was small with a tiny duvet that barely covered the bed. They had maybe run out of clean sheets as instead of a bottom fitted sheet on the mattress they had used a valance sheet which didn't stay on. The mattress was hard foam, not sprung, which I found hard to sleep on. The bedside lights had odd lightbulbs, one was too adark and one ws too bright. There was one large window in the room with good views but it quickly steamed up as there was a lack of ventilation in the room. The window opened fully into the room with no way to lock it at a certain position to stop it blowing open or stop the rain coming in. The bathroom had a bath with a shower hose attached to the taps which worked surprising well, although it leaked a bit. There was no fan in the bathroom so again no ventilation. The bathroom was also dark. Breakfast was very good. Dinner at the asian restaurant on site was excellent. The staff were very friendly.

Although the staff were friendly this was a rather 'tired' 'commercial' hotel that didn't live up to its website. After we had booked in and were settling in our room, a member of staff burst in without knocking, saying ”sorry, we thought the room was empty because it was quiet!” Bizarre. The room did have a sea view, but was built partly under the staircase so a little noisy when people tramped up to the next floor. It was also small, and the 'double' bed very narrow, perhaps four foot wide? En-suite also narrow with toilet that was difficult to flush properly. Evening meal was a bit grim, we thought the steak pie would be a safe bet, but was just meat piled on puff pastry, with under-done vegetables. Somebody's idea of a 'trendy' meal? Unbalanced and far too dry, could only eat half of it. Chef's day off? Continental breakfast was fine. (Which was just as well as the cooked breakfast was rather expensive!) Local street parking was plentiful and free - a benefit that takes some getting used to!

The landlord is very nice, we checked in before 8 o'clock in the morning from the ferry. I also patiently introduced us to the delicious and fun surroundings. Then, because the room was not full that day, we originally booked room 2 and the landlord let us live in room 5 on the top of the building. The view was very good. The breakfast is also great, it's always just a very pleasant experience~

A great hotel with a good location and a great restaurant. I recommend it to everyone. In my opinion it is the best choice on the island.

Very good hotel, the boss is very good, warm and kind, tell us which attractions are worth going, the hotel is in the center of the main island, the scenery is very beautiful, close to the supermarket and gas station, there is a small shop, a fish and chip shop is very close, there is also a takeaway Chinese restaurant, But the taste is the kind of foreign improved version, closer to Taiwan, but I recommend the hotel's lunch and dinner, you can tell the boss what you want to eat, the boss will prepare very carefully, we do not know, after communicating with the boss, the boss prepared fish meal and chicken meal, Of course, the requirements are made according to our requirements. It is very delicious. Of course, the Chinese food boss will not do it, but the curry rice made by the boss is delicious, because we like to eat light, the taste is similar to Michelin, the hotel bed is soft and hard. In the middle, the facilities are good. We went to see the aurora. The boss also told us where to see it better. Which website reads the warning. This hotel is warm like home. It is recommended that you book this hotel, but you must book three months in advance in summer, otherwise there is no place.

Very satisfied, I will definitely come later. The staff's attitude is very warm and easy-going. Although this time is short, I am very satisfied.
