The Letwick is situated right on the bay, with stunning views of the bay's coastline. We even had the joy of watching a sea otter hunt from right in front of our room! The TV was one of the largest we've had in any of our many stays in the UK. The staff at reception were phenomenal, and worked very hard to improve our experience.

The room, the facilities, the people all exceed my expectations. I've travelled from Kent to Cornwall, from Lowland to Highland, never been so pleased with the good environment and friendly people.

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!

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.
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.
The Maryfield Hotel is a unique experience. It is a ferry ride from Lerwick and the only commercial establishment on Bressay. James & Nelly make their guests feel at home and are quite accommodating. Nelly is an amazing cook so plan to eat dinner at the hotel. Be sure to sit in the snug and experience a dram of James' whisky collection.
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 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!
This place is in a great location just off the main high street in lerwick, a very comfortable 3 bed flat,easy to get from the ferry port, and a great location to explore the surrounding area. Carina is very helpful and will assist in any questions you might have.
The hotel proprietors were wonderful people, they made us feel welcome and were very accommodating. We would go back there again and were actually sorry we didn't stay there longer. The food was great as well as the hospitality. It was a wonderful experience!
Very comfortable, well furnished and excellently equipped. Convenient town centre location (but quiet, even on a Friday night) communication was brilliant, and good value for money. Would definitely recommend and hope to stay again next time I’m in Lerwick
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.
Didn’t stop there as no room available. Was it up at the Lerwick hotel for one night and then given the option of either staying at the Queens with no meals available, or staying at the Grand Hotel for the three remaining nights.
I had a very pleasant couple of days staying at Solheim. It is excellently located for the bus stop for exploring Mainland and the room I had was very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again if I was back in Lerwick.
We liked the location and the quiet setting of the area. Walking distance into the main part of Lerwick. A very nice breakfast was served each morning. The hosts were helpful and friendly. We enjoyed our stay very much.
We had a lovely time on Shetland. The apartment was very comfortable, well decorated and clean. It was easy to find and close to Lerwick centre. The bed was large and comfortable.
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.
