"Enjoyable. Would be happy to return."

8.0

On the main bus route. Beautiful views of the ocean. Comfortable bed, good shower, Friendly staff. All meals available at the hotel. Good food.Particularly grateful to Andrea for her help and local knowledge. Some local walks close by.

To really see Shetland we needed to hire a car. The hotel is about an hour and a quarter away from the airport and the bus service is limited, although there is a main hub in Lerwick.

"Very happy with our choice."

Location and food were first class and staff friendly and helpful.

Stairs a bit difficult to negotiate and a shortage of staff didn’t help.

"perfect and relaxing"

8.0

The owner Paul and his team were fantastic, lovely people. So welcoming and friendly and obviously knowledgeable about the Island. Nothing was too much trouble and we were so glad we have experienced the St Magnus Bay Hotel and if the opportunity arises one day with our busy working lives we would love to go back. We had first class cooked breakfasts, and delicious home cooked food for evening meal, absolutely perfect after a long day of sight seeing and exploring the breath taking views the Islands have to offer. Thankyou paul, you are a gentleman sir
