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.

Steve

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,LaurelieUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

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'.RichardUnited Kingdom - 8.0Scored 8.0

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!AnnaSweden - 10Scored 10

- From $279.90 per night9.4Scored 9.4WonderfulRated wonderful· 120 reviewsNellie and James were superb hosts. An added bonus was that Nellie was an exceptional cook conjuring up an amazing seafood platter which my husband and friends devoured. Has to be ordered in advance but if you love seafood well worth the wait. The only slightly disadvantage of this lovely hotel being on Bressay was that it has to be accessed via a rather expensive ferry from Lerwick. Ferry times vary, but average out to be every 45 mins but I have to say this really wasn’t a problem for us.ZoeUnited Kingdom
- 7.2Scored 7.2GoodRated good· 588 reviewsThe rooms we booked were very clean and comfortable. There was an excellent choice for breakfast ranging from a continental to the full works. The staff were very helpful throughout our stay advising on things to see and how to get there. During our stay we had a couple of evening Thai meals, the food was delicious. The hotel is only about a 10-15 minute walk from the centre, however if you are coming by ferry, I'd suggest you organise a taxi from the terminal as its a good 40 minute walk.

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.MMaltbyUnited Kingdom
