Excellent host. For a UK guesthouse, it was in exceptional physical state and cleanliness. Convenient central location. Lerwick has a beautiful historic downtown which hasn't suffered from the blight of pebbledash stucco like other parts of Scotland.

Loved the view of the water from our room. Loved that we had a hidden opening to a second small room behind the bookcase. Loved the breakfast. Located a short walk from Commercial Street and the Harbor of Lerwick and as we were fortunate to have good weather (except for wind), enjoyed the walk.

The accommodation was close to the town and great facilities to make your our food preparations. Friendly owner servicing the apartment, nice to have a bathroom for each room. Good to see re-cycling promoted within the complex.

The manager that took care of our stay arranged a different room for us than the one we had reserved, because we are somewhat elderly and not really able to handle stairs. He prepared a room especially for us that we could access with the lift. He went above and beyond to help us! Helped us with laundry facilities etc. Great guy!

Fantastic location with beautiful 2 bedroom home and fully furnished, beautiful kitchen with even an espresso maker, stove and oven, full size fridge, dishwasher and laundry facilities! WiFi. Host David is very responsive, helpful and friendly. Home is centrally located, right next to the Fort, beautiful TownHall, and a couple steps from Commercial St, with lots of businesses and restaurants. And also wonderfully quiet. Highly recommend!

I was in Lerwick during a stretch of unpleasant weather - cold and rainy with strong winds sometimes gusting at gale force. I would not recommend October or probably not winter. I will return, but next time in May or June! The city and surrounding towns are worth the visit. Next time I make the journey I will go to Kirkwall, too,

This is where you need to base if you want to explore the Shetland Islands. We found a great tour guide who took us all the way to the northern end of Unst and with his 40+ year history on the island was a wealth of information. Message me if you want his contact info.
We also did one of the wildlife boat tours which was great!

We very much enjoyed seabird watching tour departing from the small boat ferry port in Lerwick, which is really recommended! We brought a car rented at Aberdeen to Orkney/Shetland by ferries and it was nicely worked. Taking your own car is recommend as the great bird watching and archaeological sites are far away from Lerwick. Unfortunately the puffin season was over when we were in the Orkney/Shetland. I would like to visit again to see puffins!

Lerwick, well known to many people because of the TV series 'Shetland', is a charming town with many interesting features. Most importantly, the people are very friendly and welcoming to visitors, a good thing as during the summer months it is a regular stop off for cruise ships.
The town centre is tucked just behind the sea front and contains interesting local shops, cafes and restaurants. Our favourite was 'The Dowry', which has great food and excellent coffee. Visit Fort Charlotte, take a walk around the Nab for breathtaking views, catch a ferry across the sound to the island of Bressay, peruse the outstanding (and free) Shetland Museum or walk out of town to explore the ancient Broch of Clickimin. Of course, there is also a tour of the locations used to film 'Shetland'.

Lerwick is a great base for shorter excursions around the islands. We could have stayed longer for more hiking and half/full day visits. Shetland has a lot to offer. The nature is outstanding and people are very friendly.
We really enjoyed our tour with Lara Thomason who guided us around south Shetland and took us the the north west cliffs of Shetland. Very knowledgeable and pleasant to hang with. Next time it will be for hiking!

A lovely place with plenty to do.
A lovely place with plenty to do. Those of you who want to relax can enjoy the amazing scenery and wildlife from many locations around Lerwick and even when having a coffee or eating dinner at some of the locations.
Isleburgh was the perfect accommodation for my solo trip to Shetland. Lerwick is a great base to see the archipelago and this place was conveniently located, affordably priced, clean, cozy, and welcoming. It was nice to have my own private and secure space to come back to after long days of exploring. Check in and out were really easy and it was great having a carpark for my rental care. My room also had a sink and fridge which was very convenient.
The Grand is indeed grand, a wonderful building with an incredible interior. Very nice to be there. The hotel has a ‘grand’ location, being in the centre of Lerwick, convenient for the bus station and nearby restaurants. The hotel owner was incredibly helpful with questions I had. Very pleasant room. I have never been to the Shetland Islands but I felt the Grand Hotel was an excellent way to be introduced.
This hostel was excellent, great value for money, very clean, all required facilities. Above all the manager was so friendly and helpful - what a difference that makes to a stay. Would highly recommend to families looking for reasonably priced, spacious and clean accomodation in Lerwick. We have a three year old and she loved it, excellent park and swimming pool nearby.
The location was great. Slightly out of Lerwick and convenient. The hosts were attentive and gracious. The place was clean. They had everything you could possibly need for a self catering cottage. The Wi-Fi was fast and easy. They had good blackout curtains. This matters in the summer! I would stay there again definitely!
Personal service, very good brakfast and dinner (seafood), very nice and clean room, with a view. Excellent, quiet little hotel located near the ferry, only 7 minutes or so from Lerwick. Fantastic nature, bird life and hiking at Bressay. (No access to Noss due to bird flu, we recommend a boat trip from Lerwick instead)
Staff was very lovely, location excellent. Price was good. Large room. View was very cool - old cemetary. Overall, despite the fact that the hotel needs a little renovation and buy some newer things, this is pretty much what I have expected based on the price, reviews and pictures.
Just a short walk from the centre of Lerwick, the hosts of this beautiful apartment have thought of everything. It's spotlessly clean and kitted out with everything you could possibly need for a perfect stay, the peace & quiet and sea view from the living room were an added bonus.
Loved my wee single room, was lovely and clean, comfy bed, huge tv on wall, ensuite shower which was great. On the ground floor, which was even better! Lovely friendly staff, great breakfast too,would highly recommend Solheim Guest House to anyone coming to visit Lerwick.
Breakfast was exceptional. When they clean your room they give you it in an hamper so you have it for the next day. There was enough to snack on through the day too. Microwave, toaster, kettle and coffee machine all in room. Ideal location right in the heart of lerwick
The property was convenient to town, clean, comfortable, and had all of the amenities of home (the shower water pressure was even better than home! LOL)
The proprietor and her family were very friendly.
I can’t imagine wanting to stay anywhere else whilst in Lerwick!
The location for Lerwick is brilliant. The bus stop just outside of the hotel (we got the bus south to Sumburgh Lighthouse). Easy walk to Tesco's if needed, and the port not too far.
Breakfast was delicious, good atmosphere and didn't feel rushed.
Loved the location, very walkable around town. The hosts were very helpful- I was able to leave my luggage both before and after the trip as I was on the ferry, arriving early and leaving Lerwick later in the day. The breakfasts were great.
Amazing B&B in the center of Lerwick, close to everything. Clean and newly renovated. Room was spacious and comfortable. Lynette the host is fabulous very knowledgeable about the area and really welcoming. Will definitely go back.
Apartment was very clean, well appointed and in an excellent location in Lerwick. The apartment is finished to a very high standard with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Would definitely stay here again.
Amazing location, adorable hotel, really friendly staff, great food and close enough to the town while still feeling like not a tourist spot. Really fantastic
Although the room was spotlessly clean, the hotel was EXTREMELY tired and most of the furniture, fixtures and fittings should have been replaced years ago.
