Scalloway Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place and would definitely return"

NEW to VRBO: Luxury Seafront Stay in Central Lerwick W/ Parking

10/10 Excellent

"What a fantastic location and gorgeous water view. The whole experience was top notch. The house is beautifully decorated and everything you need is there when you arrive. The house is right in downtown Lerwick and walkable to everything (shopping and restaurants and the ferry). We rented a car and toured the mainland. Would absolutely recommend. There were only two of us, but the house easily accommodates 10 people. So fun to be right next to where DI Perez’s house is on the tv series Shetland."

Central Lerwick holiday apartment

10/10 Excellent

"We were super happy with the apartment. James and Mandy sent us all the info we needed well in advance, so no issues with checking in. The rooms are great, and it's actually a very spacious apartment! Perfect place to relax for the night. Beds were comfortable and everything you need to make a coffee, tea, or small meal is in the kitchen. On top of that, the location is fabulous! Walking distance to the main streets of Lerwick. We rented a car to explore beyond town. We'd definitely rent again."

Shetland Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Pleased to have booked here. Thought the price a bit steep but had a very pleasant three nights stay? Staff amazing, cheerful and helpful and nothing too much trouble. Building is tired double glazed units blown etc but really enjoyed my stay. Food excellent loads and nice and hot. Free breakfast not mentioned so very grateful. Be warned croissants dissapeard quickly."

NEW to VRBO: Elegant Lerwick Townhouse • Harbour Views + Patio

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely property walking distance into Lerwick. Slightly tricky to find the first time — definitely use the three words app — but that is a very minor comment. Great location; clean; had everything we needed for our group of 6, except the living room only had seating for 5. Would highly recommend this place"

NEW to VRBO: Central Lerwick Stay; Harbour Views, Log Burner

8/10 Good

"Great location next to Bains Beach in Lerwick.Nice conversion of former Butchers shop / blanked off window would give greater light to living area.Very well equipped and comfortable.If you have a vehicle parking can be awkward as expected.Contact with “hosts” are not the actual owners - chat lines and phone calls are via The Philippines.Booked through Shetland Stays but seemed to be tied up with this site - seems to be indiscriminate pricing.Would I return - if they’d have me - you bet I would."
