"Good location. Room was small with old furniture but clean. Dining room/restaurant was dusty: tables and floors were clean but evidence that corners, blinds, and deep cleaning does not happen often. Food options were quite good. Breakfast was good and well-served."
"My first room was a bit of a disappointment, but when I was moved to a ground floor room for my last two nights, it was a real “wow!” moment when I saw the view.
The restaurant was closed, so no breakfast was on offer. It would have been useful to know this up front.
The staff were very kind and helpful."
"The chalets are set in the most beautiful location overlooking Scalloway. Easy access by car to the whole island. The chalet was very clean with everything we needed and perfect for 2 people. We loved our visit and would definitely return to Scalloway and the Chalets again. Will be recommending to friends and family, thank you Sarah."
"Older property but with distinct charm. It is well maintained and clean. Good breakfast and good onsite dining. Extremely friendly, helpful, and efficient staff."
"The whole experience was wonderful.
Great hosts, really nice room and view and perfectly positioned for town.
Breakfasts were a triumph and hospitality from Ryan was second to none.
We really enjoyed our stay here and it made Shetland a really enjoyable experience for us."
