Havgrím Seaside Hotel 1948

0.3 km from Fort Skansin

"We stayed about a week in early May. The Havgrim can best be described as cozy and intimate with a handful of rooms. Beautiful sea view and easy walk into town. Breakfast is lovely - and saves you from having to get breakfast in town as there are limited restaurants. I would say depending on the direction of the wind you can hear larger trucks leaving Torshavn from your room if you are super sensitive to noise , otherwise you can hear the ocean waves. A lovely stay!"

Hotel Brandan

8/10 Good

"This was a very nice hotel but the room was incredibly small. My husband and I are not large people but it was challenging to have our luggage plus us in the room as there is little storage. I would recommend removing the iron and ironing board and simply have it available for those who need it."

The Bird / Guesthouse / 10 Min Walk Downtown

4/10 Poor

"Perhaps I misunderstood the dynamics of The Bird, however I was not happy with the experience and was thankful to find a hotel. I paid for two nights I didn’t use I was so unhappy. - one bath shared by many rooms and people. - no dark curtains to shade the 4am light - nowhere to put anything away in the room! Not even a hook for a coat. Unless you are happy with a hostel, avoid this."

Hotel Føroyar

6/10 Okay

"The room was clean and had a beautiful view. We also tried the restaurant on the second floor — the food was very good and the view made the experience even better. However, there were several inconveniences that made the stay disappointing. The spa situation was frustrating: even hotel guests have to pay around $80 for only 2 hours, including mandatory use of their swimsuits and slippers. You also have to walk outside to reach the swimming pool. Another issue was that our room was very far from the lobby, and we had to walk a long distance just to get ice. On top of that, the fridge in our room was not working, which made it extremely inconvenient if you want to keep food or drinks for an early morning excursion. The hotel also charges additional resort/tourist fees. Overall, the stay had some positive aspects, but the extra charges and inconveniences are the reason for my 3-star review."

Hilton Garden Inn Faroe Islands

8/10 Good

"This property is at the edge of Torshavn. The area around the hotel is fully safe, but it is commercial with limited eating choices. It is about a 25 minute walk to the harbor area where most of the shops and restaurants are located. It is frustrating to have to walk from the front entrance of the hotel through the parking lot and up the driveway to be able to walk anywhere. This property was not designed with pedestrians in mind. The room was clear and a good size. A bit of an odd arrangement with separate chambers for the toilet and the shower. The included breakfast was good. Be aware that it gets crowded at peak times. An intriguing detail was that the hotel had a turf roof."
