Myself and my wife recently stayed at the Busta house hotel, the stay was fantastic.

Firstly the welcome we received was brilliant, the rooms are well prepared with clean... read more and comfortable beds.

The menu had a wide variety to choose from this also changed daily which i have never stayed at a hotel that does this (nice touch !) the meals we received were well presented and were exceptional. Unfortunately we did not get to meet the kitchen / chef to personally thank them.

Lastly the service from the staff was exceptional, we were greeted firstly from the actual owner of the hotel. The politeness of the staff was amazing, the owner of the busta house should be very pleased and proud with all the staff.

Well done to all.

Best Regards
Mr and Mrs Brown More

  My son and I had lunch here on our five day visit to Shetland. The ambience was genteel, the food delicious and we were looked after superbly by a lovely... read more young man called Andrew. We enjoyed ourselves so much we went back two days later to repeat the experience and were not disappointed. We would happily recommend this hotel to anyone looking for good food and good service.

  Me and my partner have stayed at Busta first night of the "soft" opening after the second lockdown.
All staff were very friendly and pleasant and have made us... read more feel safe and welcome right from the beggining when were discussing our stay through messages up to checking in, meal time until the last service at breakfast.
The meal was superb, we both had steaks from the Valentine's menu and they were very good!
The chef went out of his way to accommodate me with Dairy free options which was very much appreciated!
We can't recommend Busta and the staff highly enough!
We will definitely be back.
Thank you for your great service and hard work, we really enjoyed our night away from home in Shetland More

  Stayed one night as part of a tour. Service and food fantastic. Would thoroughly recommend the lamb. Historic house in scenic location. Our only small quibble was that... read more the bathroom in our room was exceptionally small. Anyone larger or with mobility issues might struggle with the gap of only 1ft between the toilet and the accessible part of the bath / shower. Bathroom was recently refitted and immaculate but just a trifle snug.

  Great location. Interesting building and grounds with some great history. The hotel was just opening post lockdown but had put in place clear and thought through precautions.

Good... read more food would recommend eating here.

  Why would anyone stay elsewhere in Shetland? Classic Scottish charm. Delightful staff. Good food at a sensible price. Well place to explore the islands.
We really can’t fault it. Perhaps... read more in this environmentally aware age, our sheets and towels didn’t need changing every day nor our bedroom lights switching on in anticipation of our return. I’m sure energy costs will highlight those issues anyway!!
Well done and renewed thanks.

Use of the other rooms (Library, sitting room) as well as the garden were great ways to relax.

  We ate here twice during our stay on Muckle Roe after popping in for tea and coffee while waiting for our cottage, the staff are so welcoming, great service delicious... read more coffee and shortbread, the meals both nights were delicious, home made and plentiful. The long room is lovely for a pre dinner drink or coffee and the service is excellent they even recommended a place for us to visit as it was sunny when we first arrived we took the advice and had a lovely afternoon at Eshaness.

  The inn is old but extremely well-maintained. Everything you would expect from an inn with history: winding hallways, croft-type deep windows, cozy sitting room, impeccable service. Full breakfast and bar.

  This was a return two-night visit after our first one in February 2021 and if anything service was even better this time if that were possible. Staff at Busta House... read more are very well trained and extremely attentive. Our room this time (Muckle Roe) was unexpectedly large and very comfortable with excellent heating and a very comfortable bed. The menu and food served were nicely varied and always of a high quality. Service was very quick and efficient at every mealtime and it was easy to see why so many locals had booked to dine here each night of our stay. The building has a lovely atmosphere and great character.

  I often have had meals at the wonderful Busta House Hotel but have never stayed overnight. Recently I decided to get away from my home for a night. It’s the... read more best decision I could have made. I had a fantastic time and feel rejuvenated. The staff are amazing, hard working and incredibly nice, enthusiastic and committed to their work. They are attentive without being intrusive. They make you feel special, relaxed and at home. I can’t recommend staying enough. I can’t wait to go back again for another stay.

  Our choice to spend a night at the Busta House Hotel proved to be the right one - excellent. The staff welcoming and very helpful, the food delicious and... read more locally sourced, the place quirky and fun while the bedrooms very comfortable. We met other guests in the Long room after our dinner and had a very socialable evening.

The public rooms in the hotel are in the style of the place as a whole, but clean and well maintained. My room (Bigga) was a quirky one - the sloping floor being its most notable feature!

The purposely exposed historical graffiti on the plasterwork was an interesting touch; the wallpaper was clean and looked quite new, but sadly the carpet was in quite poor condition and had also creased up in several places around the room.
