    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...

    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!

    The staff were helpful. Magdalena (I think that's how it is spelt, my apologies if not to the young lady) who works in the restaurant/bar just seemed to be non stop and went above and beyond to help. Room was clean. Well located in Lerwick right opposite the ferry terminal. Free WiFi throughout hotel and surprisingly quite good. I would stay again as hotels are a bit limited in Lerwick and surrounding area

    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.

    Excellent location near downtown Lerwick. Parking is very easy. We were in the Superior Suite, and the bedroom and bathroom were comfortably large and well laid-out. The double sink is a nice touch. I enjoyed the continental breakfast options provided. The accommodations exceeded my expectations!

    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 location for Lerwick is brilliant. The bus stop just outside of the hotel (we got the bus south to Sumburgh Lighthouse). Easy walk to Tesco's if needed, and the port not too far. Breakfast was delicious, good atmosphere and didn't feel rushed.

    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.

    The apartment was warm, clean and well equipped. It was also pretty central in Lerwick so we walked to most places we wanted to go to. There was supplies left in the kitchen which was nice too. We would rent again if available.

    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.
