The Grand Hotel embraces its visitors with kindness. It is situated ideally in the center of Lerwick. Do not come here expecting a modern building. It is old and quaint with a rugged charm, that I have come to aprreciate greatly.

I have stayed in Marriott's, Hilton's and The Fairmont's but Amanda's attention to detail make this one of the best places that I have ever stayed in. The single room might be small, but it's completely self contained. It has a fridge, a microwave, a care basket with loads of free goodies, a coffee machine and a kettle. The best part is that you also get a place to sit and have your coffee. The bathroom is on the ground floor, but it is spacious and clean. Even the towels are scented. Amanda and her son have made sure that everything you need is there for you. There is freshness as soon as you enter the room. Since she has also been the councillor, she has wonderful insights into the actual lives and problems of people of Shetland. Her tours are really informative and interesting. Bottom line, I would never book anything else whenever I am in Lerwick.

Beautiful location. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Gave me a lift when I was leaving. Facilities were excellent. The podika has completely original decoration celebrating the beauty of nature. Every need you could possibly have has been catered for. Best place I've stayed in Shetland out of the 5 places I've stayed in the past. Will be back again.

The people of Shetland are warm and welcoming.

The people of Shetland are warm and welcoming. The vistas and the location of Lerwick are superb. The number of and variety of restaurants and their high quality is first class. The road network from Lerwick to areas beyond is very good allowing one to see a large variety of inland and coastal scenery.

For a place that size, there are some excellent places to eat and visit. We ate at Saffron, Nepalese/Indian restaurant, Fjara ,cafe/bar beside Tesco and in the Thai restaurant in the Glen Orchy Guest House and The Dowry. Also had takeaway from Fort Fish and Chips. We visited Shetland Textile Museum, Mareel, The Shetland Museum the Town Hall and Clickimin Broch. On a previous visit we has visited Lodberries and Bain's Beach. If you are self catering, there is a large CoOp and an even larger Tesco as well as all the other specialist wee shops for food. Lerwick is supremely easily walkable.

It’s so clean, locals are friendly, scenery spectacular. Easy to get to many picturesque areas like st Ninians beach. Shops are expensive but contain hidden gems. Some of them are bigger than they appear from the streets with many nooks and crannies. Restaurants you really need to book in advance. When the cruise ships come in, it’s quite busy. The museum was lovely, shame about the cafe being closed in there. Jarlshof is worth a visit

Lerwick is a very charming village on Shetland which has many beautiful sights and things to do, on foot or car, plus amazing boat trips to see the abundant bird life off Noss. This is a must do! And travelling to the most northerly points of the UK on Unst, is a beautiful day with the rugged scenery and coastline.

It is a lovely town. We found a couple of great restaurants. The museum was really interesting. As a small town you could walk it easily. It would have been great to have been able to stay longer and explore the rest of the main island. We were aware of buses passing through.

We only stayed one full day and had to 4pm the following day. The people of Lerwick are a very friendly bunch of people. And we interacted with over a dozen people. Business owners, bus drivers, locals young and older helping us with information . One lady stopped and gave us a lift up a steep street to our accommodation . There is plenty to do. We didn’t have a car so we got buses , we travelled to Scalloway and did a town circle trip. There are also a couple of other bus trips ( regular local bus service )that you can explore other areas. We just used our Mastercard from Australia to tap on to purchases tickets . No problem at all. On the trip to Scalloway we saw 4 Shetland ponies. There are numerous walks around the town , one we did called Knab didn’t take long at all. We went to Fort Charlotte which is 5-8 minutes walk from the town hub ( commercial at) . It gives a higher vantage point to see the water , looking straight across to Berssay Island. You can get a ferry over to Berrsay island, it only takes a minute or two .The shops are interesting , we went into a lot of shops, and great souvenirs. There is a modern cinema complex between the town and northlink ferry terminal which has a cafe , and about 100 metres down from the cinema complex is the museum . I did see a boat that looked like it did bird watching tours , don’t quite me on that as we didn’t go or make inquiries. There are public toilets in the hub of town open from 8 am till 8 or 9 pm and they are free. I saw a lot of taxis that seem to wait in the main area of town so I think it would be very easy to get a cab. So glad we went and wished we had two or three days instead of one and a half. I recommend avoiding Monday as most shops are closed and finding something to eat is difficult. I think there is a chippy that’s open Monday’s, not sure what time he closes.

We've had the most wonderful stay at this friendly, comfortable, and welcoming hotel. Close to Bressay ferry terminal it's a regular and short (7 min) crossing back to Lerwick. The hotel is peaceful and has beautiful views from every window. The evening menu is delicious, there is a well-stocked bar and an amazing whisky collection. The hotel owners know their stuff and provide exceptional guest comforts. Breakfast has been a definite highlight, setting us up well for long days of walking and exploring.

This lovely old building is arguably the prettiest hotel in Lerwick from the outside. It's right on the waterfront, and my room has beautiful views across the harbour to Bressay island. Check-in was brilliant with a lovely warm welcome by Skyler (sorry if my spelling's wrong!) who even showed me to my room on the top floor. The room was clean, as was the bathroom, and nice and quiet.
