Frommer's Review

This stone and clapboard inn is located in the village of Kettletoft, about 13km (8 miles) northeast of Sanday's roll-on/roll-off ferry pier. Kettletoft consists of about 15 buildings and is the most central of the island's four communities. The Belsair's functionally furnished guest rooms were upgraded and renovated in 1992, but the original building dates back to 1879, when it was built by ancestors of the hotel's present owners.

The Belsair is the site of the island's only restaurant. Gardens across the road produce many of the vegetables served in the dining room, where moderately priced dishes include straightforward but flavorful preparations of fish, beef, and lamb.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
