    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 '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!

    A lovely place with plenty to do. Those of you who want to relax can enjoy the amazing scenery and wildlife from many locations around Lerwick and even when having a coffee or eating dinner at some of the locations.

    The hostel has the perfect location, right in the middle of Lerwick, less than 10 minutes walk to the pier and into town. The biggest supermarket is also only 15 minutes walk away. The staff was very helpful and friendly! We couldn't have gotten it any better. The shared kitchen was clean and enjoyed by all. We had the room all to ourselves for the two of us, lovely. I would stay there again in a heartbeat if I came to Lerwick again :-)

    This hostel was excellent, great value for money, very clean, all required facilities. Above all the manager was so friendly and helpful - what a difference that makes to a stay. Would highly recommend to families looking for reasonably priced, spacious and clean accomodation in Lerwick. We have a three year old and she loved it, excellent park and swimming pool nearby.

    The room is immaculately clean. Love the small personalised touches e.g. chocolate mints, tea, coffee and chocolate milk tray (kettle). We were able to use their kitchen. The host doesn't live in the same place so it is like a hotel. REally warm friendly hosts. The breakfast is yummy. The location is amazing! Will visit again!

    The property is in an excellent location with easy access to Lerwick. The property is clean and has plenty of space for a 2 bedroom apartment. James & Mandy were extremely informative throughout and very helpful in allowing early access to the property from the ferry (arrives in Lerwick around 07:00)

    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 house is only 15 minutes away from Lerwick and an ideal base for visiting the south side of Mainisland. The house is super comfy and the most exceptional holiday let we’ve ever stayed in. Already looking into booking again.

    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.
