Felt privileged to be able to stay in such a beautiful historic haa. Setting amazing and lovely to see the trees in the grounds. Large and spacious communal rooms. Lovely staff. Good breakfast. We didn't need the full works but they were happy to accommodate us with porridge and poached eggs. Late check out at midday was a relief. Would recommend and return.

Room was quite small and stuffy, improved when windows opened and door was pinned back. Very thick and heavy duvets for July. Lots (and lots) of firedoors to struggle through with your luggage but part of the nature of the building. Thin walls and bangng doors led to a broken sleep.

Busta House is full of history and character set at a wonderful location on beautiful Shetland. As a mix of old and new it still maintains a welcoming warmth and charm and since it's an old house, a good dose of fun quirkiness. We unfortunately booked one of the last remaining rooms; it did not come with a view and was on the small side, but still comfortable for our short two night stay. The wait staff and food (both dinner and breakfast) were just awesome. We loved all our meals and drinks. I tried all the fish dishes and all were fresh and wonderful. Busta House is a very special and unique place that I look forward to visiting again in the future.

Beautiful house in a beautiful setting- everywhere there was something interesting to see. The staff were particularly good. The breakfast was so nicely presented as well as being delicious. I was working, but sitting for a pre-prandial drink in the Long Room was so relaxing that it felt as though I were on holiday for one night. The shower room was a wee bit claustrophobic, but I'm not going to put that as a "didn't like" because overall the room was very pretty and, more to the point, the shower was intuitive and worked well.

A charming historic building, with beautifully kept gardens, in a stunning setting with views across the voe. All of which pale into insignificance against the stellar performance of the staff here. These friendly and efficient people make this hotel a welcoming, comfortable and relaxing place to stay. The food is wholesome, delicious, served well and without fuss. You must try the scones!

We liked everything about this place!

It was atmospheric, the room was lovely. We had a family room although we were just a couple, it was really nice though. The Long Room is a very nice place to have a drink before and/or after your meal, it would have been nicer if the fire had been on. The breakfast was amazing, the evening meal was fine I have eaten here before though and the evening meal was much better on that occasion. The staff, although young, were lovely and attentive, very polite.

I had reservations about my stay since this seemed like a very remote location in Shetland and I didn't know much about it. We rented a car and it was easy to navigate via GPS to Brea, which seemed like a nice little town with supermarkets and some restaurants available (I thought there would be nothing around for miles). It's easy to get to the house and it has a lovely view to the water. The staff was friendly, the house is cozy and warm and even though is a historic venue, the rooms were well kept, clean and the bathrooms were fully refurbished. The food is good, they offer a fully loaded Scottish breakfast (if that is something you fancy) and a variety of meals for lunch and dinner, preferably book in advance. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and if I'm ever back in Shetland, I'd come back.

Large and comfortable bed, beautiful rooms. Staff were all lovely and attentive, allowed us to check in early. Excellent and varied breakfast and evening meals. Couldn't recommend more. Maybe not the best place for anyone with mobility issues however, as the bathroom is very small and getting into the bath/shower requires stepping over/around the toilet.

Breakfast was superb - especially the porridge and the smoked haddock with poached eggs. Lovely lounge area. Welcoming, friendly staff.

The grounds really need some attention. Although our room had a sea view it was very limited due to the trees having been allowed to grow without pruning. It would be a glorious garden but it seems that there aren’t sufficient funds for maintenance.

Fantastic location and impressive garden space. The service was first rate and all staff went out of their way to help and advise. The lounge, in particular, was a wonderful space for pre-dinner drinks or quiet reading.

Bathroom was a bit cramped. It had excellent facilities, including a great shower, but was tight on space.

Busta is a lovely quaint hotel in Shetland. The staff were lovely and accommodating, the bed was super comfortable and the sheets super soft. The loo was super clean too. Breakfast was included and for a small hotel in mainland Shetland I could not have asked for more. The main lounge was a treat for a bit of silent reading.
