Great access to Muckle Roe, must see destination; lovely home cooking with farm fresh ingrediends (the lamb is a must); generous size, renovated room with modern bathroom; reliable regular bus service to other places in Shetland for those with backpacks, the isolation from town is a bonus, so relaxing; helpful and friendly service

A nice clean hotel situated on the waterside.
A nice clean hotel situated on the waterside. Very good staff who operated well under covid restrictions. The food was good and we enjoyed all our meals. Not gourmet food but good. Excellent selection of whiskies to try and a well balanced wine list.

I liked the location of the hotel and the staff were all very helpful and friendly.
The hotel had just had new boilers fitted so it was very warm and stifling in the bedroom.
The dining room could benefit from more lighting as it was quite dark

The hotel its self does need a little TLC but that didn't take away the good time we had there. As I've said before I would gladly recommend it although now I have thought about it there is no lift to the rooms which are upstairs, I think that would be the only down side for any one who had mobility problems. The hotel is well used by the locals which says a lot when the locals eat out there too.
Busta house is a lovely building, historic, quirky and well presented. We’d had a strange introduction to Shetland Hotels with our previous hotel in Lerwick but Busta House more than made up for it. This was achieved by the constant good humour, charm and efficiency of all the staff we met. They even managed to fulfil a busy Friday night service with aplomb.
Our dog was made welcome and enjoyed snoofling about the garden and snoozing in the lovely bedroom.
All the staff were very positive and helpful, especially when we had an early start on leaving.
The location is beautiful and the hotel has a lot of character. The Long Room was a great venue for meeting other guests and sampling whiskies or drinks of choice.
The food was of good quality, with ample portions.
The service and staff, especially Bradley (!) was exceptional. it was a beautiful, historical property, conveniently located to do day trips around the whole of Shetland. The food was great: the breakfast selection was very good: varied, fresh, and generous portions. The bar menu was top notch.
Breakfast and dinner excellent . Big portions ! Was given wrong type of room initially but staff changed it to correct one with sea view with no fuss .Hotel old building but quirky and worked well . Very busy on a Saturday night with lots of locals dining which is good sign.
The staff makes this hotel, they are the best that I have come across, willing to help and nothing is too much trouble.
The location was quiet and the hotel has a large garden (although prone to midges at times - not the hotel staff's problem though just nature).
The setting was beautiful. A lovely country house hotel. Rooms have been refurbished with excellent bathrooms and furnishings. Extremely comfortable beds. Lovely restaurant with wonderful local dishes. Very friendly and helpful staff.
This hotel was lovely. The service was fantastic, friendly, and helpful. We had dinner at the restaurant and it was very good. Breakfast the next morning was also great! Also the bathtub was enormous!
Great position geographically for touring Shetland. The hotel was warm & comfortable with excellent staff & great food. Given the COVID circumstances this was a good visit.
Very quiet and comfortable hotel. The bed was very comfortable. It is a very well
run and all staff unfailingly attentive and polite. The food was excellent.
