Old property but really well updated. Almost empty for my stay at very start of season so my single room on 2nd floor was quiet. Room clean and comfortable. New ensuite with walk in shower 10/10. Breakfast continental or pay extra for cooked. Parking easy ( you really need a car) and Scalloway very well placed for touring. Hotel closed for food in evening whilst I was there and not much else locally but really enjoyed my stay and would definitely use again.

Everyone at the hotel was concerned for our comfort and well-being, they were very flexible when our travel plans were unexpectedly extended, the food was delicious, and it was an excellent base to explore Shetland. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic staff who were incredibly helpful. Very good sleep and walkable to everything in Scalloway. Car required for daytrips. Hood parking outside the hotel and a short walk away.

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.

Lovely location on the West Coast but only 20 minutes away from Lerwick. Friendly staff and a clean room with a sea view. Family run who appreciate their guests

SCOTT • Couple Trip

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.

Booked a single room which was quite small but it was exactly as per the photo. The bathroom was quite spacious and very well lit. Extremely clean as was the bathroom. Noise insulation wasn’t great as the room is above the kitchen but I’m used to very quiet living. The dinner menu was varied and the dishes very well presented. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A shame the breakfast pastries were individually wrapped in plastic and the jams and spreads which I understand to limit food waste; maybe that’s different in high season.

Andrew • Couple Trip

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.
