Best hotel on Shetland

We had an amazing stay at the Brae Hotel, which after staying in a few other places, I can say is the best hotel I’ve experienced within Shetland. The room was really comfortable & clean offering great value of money. However the real stand out feature was every member of staff in the hotel and the warm welcome they provided
