10/10 Excellent

Friendly, clean hotel. Lovely location, continental breakfast was included but various cooked options were also available. We ate in the bar one evening and drinks in the bar both evenings we stayed, both very reasonably priced & enjoyable. Mix of locals and hotel guests, good atmosphere. Would recommend and would return.

8/10 Good

Pleasant comfortable stay, good food

We stayed for a few days while exploring Shetland. Our room was comfortable and warm, with a modern (if snug) en-suite bathroom. The dining room had a good and interesting menu; dinner portions were enormous. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. There was, at times, a little music from the bar audible in the bedroom.

stephen, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Our stay in Scalloway was mostly pretty good. Our hotel room could only be cooled by open windows and outside, right under our open windows, bar patrons gathered at tables for a smoke, and frequently loud conversation. The smoke and noise were drawn into our room through the open windows. Although the hotel asks smokers use their back porch, there are still many who smoke in front. My recommendation is to avoid sea view rooms in summer if noise and smoke will bother you. Also, their coffee machine was broken and the substitute coffee maker made terrible coffee.

Good location near to Meal and Minn beaches and easy access to other routes around Shetland.

10/10 Excellent

Great hotel, easy to find, quiet at night, fantastic food and great staff. Highly recommend.
Johann, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Our stay was pleasant. Staff was courteous and friendly. The room was clean and spacious. Its an old building but well kept. Nothing fancy but enough for what we needed. We were out all day & went back to hotel to sleep. Walls are thin like other people mentioned, so u could hear yr next door neighbors tv. It didn't bother us, cause it was on while ours was too. There is a bar across the road so on the weekend people coming and going can be heard, but then again, we had our windows constantly open, so that could also be the case why we heard them. The hotel is aware of that & provided ear plugs which we used. Staff did our laundry when we asked them, folded it & placed it in our room. For me as someone who travels is to look for a clean & safe place, and the Scalloway hotel was that place.

10/10 Excellent

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Hotel is in a good location to visit all area's of Shetland. Good selection for the continental breakfast, and food was excellent for evening meals. Some fixtures and fittings need replacing as they were looking a bit worn in the room we were in, but generally the room was clean and warm.

The furnishing and comfort of my room rate an excellent. The food was also very good. However the staff, though willing when tracked down and friendly, are in serious need of training in customer relations.
