St Magnus Bay Hotel

Ein tolles Hotel in Hillswick mit Blick auf Ura Firth auf den wunderschönen Shetlandinseln. Voller Charme vergangener Tage, mit sehr freundlichem, stets hilfsbereitem Personal. Das Zimmer war sauber und hatte alles, was man brauchte. Das Essen war ausgezeichnet (wenn auch etwas teuer). Wenn Sie ein warmes Frühstück wünschen, mit dem Sie so richtig in den Tag starten können, dann sind Sie hier genau richtig. Nächster Halt: Sonntags-Fleischbuffet! Ich würde auf jeden Fall wieder hier übernachten.

We enjoyed our two night stay at the St. Magnus Bay Hotel. Guest room was large and offered a lovely view of the Bay. Clean and comfortable, the highlight was the delicious meals we enjoyed in the restaurant. Adorned with Viking decor, we felt the historical past and family like atmosphere to be unique and pleasant. Very easy access to the beach and wildlife viewing in addition to the local plants like Oyster plants nearby. I would highly recommend the St. Magnus Bay Hotel to anyone visiting Shetland Mainland.

Arrived in 50mph headwinds by cycle. The hosts Andrea and Paul and staff are most welcoming ,and you feel at home the minute you step over the door. The location is both beautiful and tranquil with awesome views all around. The hotel is comfortable and the food is excellent. The evening meals are worthy of note. The bar is the focus of lively debate . The locals were very friendly. I was offered great hospitality and got a lift with my bike to Brae on 2 occasions to assist me on my way. I would not hesitate to recommend this unique hotel that is steeped in history. Visit and you will find out ! Many thanks to Paul and Andrea.

Great location and friendly owner. Hotel is the only one in the area and although very clean - is beginning to look a bit tired. Good food - random service lol! Good flexibility with antisocial breakfast times. Basic room with an excellent shower. Hotel would benefit from a drying room.

Lovely family hotel in a great location. We were in the recently renovated annex with a view of the bay and it was fabulous. Super clean and comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were great. The nicest place we stayed in our week in Shetland. Staff were friendly and welcoming too.

Had a fantastic stay in this really friendly family run hotel, it is extremely comfortable, nothing was too much trouble, food is delicious and generous portions. Great views of the bay. Would highly recommend

We were celebrating our grandparents Diamond Wedding and decided we’d go to Hillswick and the whole family would stay overnight. The staff were absolutely brilliant, so pleasant, very hardworking and attentive. The menu they’d put together for us was amazing and the food we received was exceptional! The way the food was presented was fantastic, with dishes of vegetables, mash and chips on the table for us to help ourselves to, brilliant idea! The wonderful staff had set a beautiful table with rose napkins and quality streets scattered, which was so thoughtful. We had additional touches to add and it all came together just perfectly. The staff that served us during our meal were absolutely brilliant, they were very busy with other tables, but did a brilliant job juggling alot of work, well done to them, they did such a good job! Both front of house/bar/restaurant staff were some of the nicest people I’ve ever seen, they were all absolutely excellent! The rooms were fantastic and the room our grandparents had was the Delux Suite and it did not disappoint, with additional touches of wine and chocolates! I’ve never seen a room like it, simply amazing! From the massive TV, to the beautiful fireplace, the most beautiful bathroom and a huge living room to spend with the family…outstanding room! We have had an absolutely brilliant weekend and cannot thank the wonderful staff enough. Each one of them are an asset to the St Magnus Bay Hotel! We will definately be back again!

Really nice friendly hotel . They are doing some renovation work at the moment but you wouldn't know . My room was large with a view across the bay . Modern bathroom very clean and comfortable. The best thing about the hotel was the staff. You were treated like a friend the atmosphere was lovely everyone wanting to share the local knowledge. The food was also excellent and pleanty of it after a long day exploring Shetland

This is a lovely grand hotel in the small town of Hillswick. We stayed here for two nights, taking a cab ride from Lerwick to get here. It was a lovely and relaxing place to stay to experience the gorgeous countryside (although we might rent a car if we stayed here again). The hotel is right by the Hillswick Circular hike. Our room was great, spacious, with a comfortable bed and a stunning view of the bay. We were a block from the water and right by the start of the hiking trail, so it was a great base for exploring the local area. The room was lovely, with nice wood furniture and leaf light fixtures. The bathroom had a warm, relaxing shower with good water pressure. Water temperature got nice and hot. The toilet was a bit easy to clog, so we had to be a little careful there. Our room had been newly remodeled, with new carpet, fancy bathroom walls, and looked and smelled like it had recently been painted but maintained its historic charm. The hotel had an attached bar should you want a drink or cake, which was good for when you returned hungry after a long hike. Staff was very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Wifi worked great. This was particularly important, since our cell service here was spotty. Staff had to help us make a call at least once because we couldn’t get our phones to find service. Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay in a wonderful part of the world.
