All Shetland Isles Hotels

Below is a list of all Shetland Isles Hotels in Scotland with Websites, Phone Numbers, Images and links to Maps and Reviews.

The Shetland Isles are an archipelago of 100 islands that are situated further north than Moscow and southern Greenland.

Lerwick is the largest town on the Shetland Isles. The main ferry link by NorthLink Ferries is between Aberdeen, Orkney and Shetland. The trips take about 6 hours between Aberdeen and the Orkney Isles, and about 8 hours between the Orkney Isles and the Shetland Isles. The service runs about 4 days per week.

At the southern tip of Shetland is Sumburgh Head, the first part of the Islands most visitors see when travelling by sea.

Flights from Sumburgh Airport connect to most major Scottish and Norwegian airports, as well as to Kirkwall in Orkney and, sometimes, to Fair Isle.

Visitor attractions on the Shetland Isles include Fort Charlotte & the Broch of Clickimin: a 1000BC bronze-age farmhouse on the south side of Lerwick, Scalloway Castle 25 miles west of Lerwick, Mousa Broch: one of 500 fortified house scattered around the islands, Jarlshof: an archaeological site showing the Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age, Pictish, Norse and Medieval eras, right the way through to the 1600s, and the Fetlar Interpretive Centre.

There are many fishing villages and coastal settlements to visit such as Hamnavoe, Walls, Sandnes, Sandwick, Aith, Mossbank, Brae, Eshaness& Hillswick. View the Click on Map.
