Varis House

A very sweet B and B. Rooms we clean, all necessities were available. Room was smaller than expected.

Brilliant

A cozy and comfortable B&B within walking distance of much of Lerwick. We had a fun and friendly host but we never saw him after check-in. Our door lock was broken or the key was faulty, only working with effort, until we were locked out on our last day after having breakfast in the very nice dining room. Calls to our host and an alternate number went unanswered, but we did finally get into our room after 20 minutes of trying and were able to check out. Our host did finally get back to us while we were on the road to our next destination. Other than the lock though, Varis House is a fine accommodation.

Excellent location and a wonderful experience overall! Will stay again if ever I come to Shetland again! View from top room absolutely amazing!

Always a pleasure to stay here.

Friendly landlord, room and bed quite small

Liked the position in relation to the town and that there was parking. However for the money it was a disappointment. Everything about the place was tired and worn. Seriously needs an upgrade. Beds and bedding old and lumpy. Decor dusty and from the ‘80 s. Also we were refused a late checkout and when we left at the required time, there was no one to check us out! Not an enjoyable stay.

The guest house was in a great position, just a few minutes walk from the harbour area. Our twin room with very comfy, great shower with loads of hot water. The room was quite compact but had everything we needed for our 4 night stay. We loved the breakfasts, continental style with the added bonus of Julie’s lovely home baking! Nigel and Julie were wonderful hosts. Recommended.

Very warm welcome

Ideal for Lerwick and getting about Shetland.
