Stayed 5 nights in this guest house October 2011. Room 2. lovely big twin with super view over the water. Heavy net lace curtains on the window obscured this a bit, but not liking net curtains is just a personal thing. Heating system worked ferociously well, windows could be opened easily. The room has a curious arrangement of the wash... More

Stayed here 1 night on business and Christine & Dieter were really helpful and welcoming hosts. Very adequate room with all that I needed. Would definitely stay here again.

After 3 days in London and the day and a half it took me to get to Shetland, the Breiview Guest House was a perfect place for me to relax and enjoy Shetland. Dieter made me a "full Scottish breakfast" each morning, and Christine was absolutely lovely letting me share with her the photos of my home and family in... More

Very large guest house, friendly welcome, nice lounge with much appreciated honesty bar. However the bedroom (lower floor) was cold - the heating never came on and there is no drying room so our kayaking clothes remained wet. Fine for a one night stay but if visiting again I would try to avoid the 25 minute walk into town by... More

Stayed 3 nights in a clean and convenient room. Indoor furnishing was not extravagant but reasonable for the price. Owners and staff were friendly, breakfast was OK. Responses to accomodation request and further e-mails were sent immediately and booking was very uncomplicated. Location is a bit outside of Lerwick but quiet and walking distance to town centre was acceptable.

Just stayed two nights at Breiview on a business trip to Shetland. A bit out of town but a perfect place to crash at the end of a busy day with good breakfasts and nice rooms. What more do you need?

Having had negative experiences of Glen Orchy and Alder Lodge and been unable to get a room at Fort Charlotte, I thought I'd go a little further out. I tried Breiview. I would agree with the other reviewer in that the decor is a bit eclectic but the rooms are generally big and the proprietors are very nice and keen... More
