Welcome to 14 Excelsior Place, a beautifully appointed one bedroom penthouse apartment with breathtaking views eastwards over Lerwick Harbour and, to the South, over Fort Charlotte and towards Lerwick Town Hall, both iconic Lerwick landmarks. Situated in the heart of Lerwick town centre the apartment is 100m away from Commercial Street, the main commercial area of town, running parallel to the harbour front with many independent, locally owned shops and eating establishments to explore. If exploring further afield, the Viking Bus Station is also 100m from the apartment, from where public service buses will take you on journeys the length and breadth of Shetland.
Accommodation consists of one double bedroom enjoying views southwards towards Fort Charlotte and Lerwick Town Hall, a light and airy open plan lounge, kitchen and dining area with floor to ceiling windows offering spectacular views eastwards over Lerwick Harbour and across the town. Enjoy a coffee or a meal as you watch ships, ferries and cruise liners at work or at anchor in the harbour as the morning sun floods the apartment. The kitchen area is fully equipped with fridge freezer, dishwasher, microwave and oven/hob. A washing machine is also available in the apartment. The bathroom includes an over-bath shower and heated towel rail. WiFi is available.
Access to the apartment is via a gated entry system. Covered bicycle storage (not locked) is available outside the block. The apartment is situated on the top floor of the block, on its own landing, which is separated by a door from the communal stairwell. Please note - The apartment would not be suitable for those with reduced mobility or any health conditions which would prevent guests climbing stairs.

Phil and Trish R., Sept 2025
Spacious, clean and well appointed. Fabulous view over the harbour. A welcoming and helpful host added to our wonderful stay. Recommend without hesitation. Easy street parking. As the name suggests, a penthouse apartment requires some steps to climb. Great location with co-op supermarket near by and an easy 5 min walk into main street.

Quiet location with wonderful views. I highly recommend this property. Much roomier than the pictures seem to indicate.
