The location is very convenient for all the sights in the south of the islands. It is only a 20 minute walk to the nearest beach which is glorious. My room as very comfortable, with good storage space, TV, hairdryer, etc. There is also free speedy wifi. The shower is one of best I’ve ever had on my travels! The... More

We ate alone in the pleasant dining room and could not understand it. The bar was full but there was no-one in the restaurant. The food was good local produce and the chef was clearly talented producing good lamb and fish dishes. We ate pretty well and enjoyed the experience. We were there at the start of September so perhaps... More

A table of 5 enjoyed a well cooked and substantial Sunday lunch in the bay window overlooking a beautiful bay - plemty of vegetables and tasty meals for all ages from 12 - 80 we all enjoyed our food.. Very quiet on a late September Sunday so a little lacking in atmosphere.

Keith, the proprieter/chef, and his staff made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. We spent the day of arrival exploring the wonderful natural beauty of the Shetland Islands and were arriving at the Spiggie Hotel later than we expected. Keith was kind enough to call my mobile to check on our arrival and he kept the kitchen open... More

We just came in to the Spiggie Hotel for a lunch break and when we sat down, we had to wait for at least 20 minutes for a waiter to serve us. When we got served, we waited for half an hour for someone to give out plates. While eating, we noticed that we were the only ones in the... More

What an amazing place - warm welcome and great food. The views are spectacular and the room we had was extremely comfortable and well equipped. The staff were very helpful and courteous and this made a great base from which to explore the amazing scenery which is in abundance in Shetland. Favourite moment was sitting on the rocks by Spiggie... More

My husband and I just completed a perfectly marvelous stay at Spiggie. It's a charming, yet sophisticated hotel in a scenic location. The 1870s building has been handsomely restored, achieving just the right balance of bygone character and modern comfort. Meals served in the attractive dining room are outstanding -- fresh, local ingredients, interesting menu. And the bar, a neighborhood... More

The positives first, the chef seems to take justifiable pride in what he is doing. The food is pricier the other places where we dined, but the evening dishes we had ranged from fairly good to great. All this was completely undermined by the hotel side of things - proper cleaning was definitely not on the menu. There were tissues... More
