Shabby and worn down. Not worth it.
Very shabby hotel. Were told we couldn’t open the window due to hatching birds (!) and there was no A/C. Had paid for a triple room, but one of the beds was a roll-away stuffed into a twin room, with very little room left to move around. The roll-away bed collapsed every time someone sat on it, but they had to send staff twice to check because they didn’t believe us. Were finally offered a single room free of charge. Beds were uncomfortable, and the hotel was quite run down. Sad, because it is 300 years old and has a ton of potential. If only they would renovate it!

Hospitable
The first impression is that the hotel would need an upgrade, but I could see the charm of it as well. The personnel is friendly and has the correct hospitality approach. I have stayed in quite a few hotels on the island and Grand Hotel scores best in this.

I had no warning there was no elevator. It may have been in the description but I missed it. I definitely would have opted for a place I would not have to haul my luggage up and down three stories.

a great place to stay in Shetland
The Grand Hotel is part of the old town, Lerwick. Great place to visit Shetland Islands. Service is absolutely fine - breakfast, cleaning, strong wifi, tv... I have been there approx 1 week and I do not have any problems. I agree that the Grand Hotel is maybe little too old but ... the price is reasonable and - in addition - hotel employees are friendly. Quiet and pleasant.

The hotel is in an excellent location, staff are friendly and cooked breakfast was good. However the condition of the building is very poor. Our room (up 71 stairs, no lift) had a barely-functioning shower, peeling and stained wallpaper, and water damage and peeling plaster around the window. Flaking plaster from the ceiling fell onto the bed (and the sleeper!) during the night. No manager was on site to handle complaints.
