"We chose the Queen’s Hotel for its convenient location to restaurants, shopping, and sites in downtown Lerwick. The property is older and still needs some renovation, but the staff — specifically Rory & Pete — were extremely hospitable and helpful. There is no onsite restaurant, but the staff provided great local recommendations that are easily walkable.
We also hired Sandy’s Taxis for transportation from Sumburgh airport and for our sightseeing needs. John was a fantastic driver & offered local knowledge that enhanced our experience."
"I had a lovely stay here, it is well located and the room I was in was well kept. I will say watch out for the step into the bathroom as the door is misleading! Also if you're more than a size 12 you will struggle to wash yourself in the shower without banging your elbows on something!
The in room tea and coffee making facilities, along with the small fridge were appreciated.
I had an issue with the toilet flush which was dealt with in an expedient manner.
I would stay here again :)"
"Best place to stay when visiting Shetland. Perfect location within Shetland and within Lerwick. Walkable to everything in Lerwick.
The owner Peter is great. The breakfast was very nice and the room was cozy. Very quiet and clean property. We loved it there."
"Sarah the host was lovely and we enjoyed her art/gallery and garden. Chalet was in a good position if you have a car. We didn't know you couldn't drive your car to your chalet - suitcases have to be lugged up and down steps. We would have liked some outdoor seating. Kitchen was small but good and had everything we needed. Lsundry was fine. I thought the chalets were near a beach because of the photos but they weren't."
"A very nice room although I found the bed a bit soft. The staff are extremely nice and accommodating. The breakfast was excellent. I ate in the restaurant twice but recommend eating at some of the restaurants in town."
