    Comfortable double room with tidy, clean interiors. The unique UpHellyaa shield display in the reception area adds a cozy touch, perfect for relaxing with a coffee.

    The restaurant menu feels a bit too fancy for a laid-back dining experience, and the bar menu is quite limited. The noise from nearby pub drinkers might not be ideal for those looking to unwind while eating. bathroom doors in multiple rooms didn’t close properly, with one needing a towel to keep it secure during shower time.

    The location was fantastic for exploring the nearby attractions, including local walks along beautiful landscapes. The meals were absolutely delightful, especially the local Shetland mussels and haddock. The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome, which made our stay even more enjoyable.

    The homemade cheesecake was a delightful treat that I'll remember.

    The bathroom could do with a couple more hooks and another small shelf.

    brusque service

    The Brae Hotel offers a warm environment with genuinely friendly staff, and the food is quite good, especially the breakfast. The room was clean but could use a couple more electrical outlets, and some service interactions felt a bit brusque. it's a solid choice.

    spacious ground floor accessible room, superb sea view, full sized snooker table

    intimate decor
    cozy atmosphere
    convenient accessibility
    lacking grab rails
    limited bathroom accessibility

    The hotel's intimate decor and charming, cozy atmosphere were delightful, creating a welcoming vibe. It was also conveniently located on the ground floor, which made navigating easier for seniors like me.

    More grab rails in the bathroom would be helpful.

    welcoming atmosphere
    exciting local produce
    small bed
    dated decor
    limited menu

    A welcoming atmosphere greets visitors from the moment you arrive, especially thanks to the attentive staff like Scott and Curtis, who excel in service. The rooms were clean and presented comfortably, ideal for relaxing after a day of exploring. Dinner featured exciting local produce with a menu that changes daily, and breakfast included both hearty Scottish options and continental fare. One downside was the relatively small bed size, but that hardly detracted from the enjoyment of the stay.

    From the mouthwatering seafood dinners to the generous, scrumptious breakfasts, every bite felt like a triumph. The staff's warmth truly made our stay special—shoutout to Scott and Curtis for their unbeatable service! And did I mention the fantastic bar for pre-dinner drinks? Top-notch!

    cozy lounge
    scenic spots

    I recently spent 4 nights in a Standard Twin Room. The location is central and perfect for touring. I particularly enjoyed unwinding at the cozy lounge, and the snooker room was a fun place to chill after a long day. The potential for exciting nearby scenic spots added a nice touch to our adventure.

    Felt very happy, no complaints at all.

    clean room
    comfortable bed
    nice view
    basic amenities
    small room

    My Double Room was clean and comfy with a nice little view. The bed felt great for a good night's sleep. Amenities were basic but solid. Just enough to make it cozy, but not super spacious. No serious complaints, really.
