Everything was perfect! The cleanliness, the service, the breakfast. (Even though there was no vegan options, i made it work with the fruit and sliced bell peppers.) Hotel os right in the center and a .i utes walk from everything. Im planning on returning, so i would like to see options for laundry services.

What I like most is the location of the hotel in the centre of Torshavn. Although the bathroom/shower is small, but everything functions well - no leaking and clean. I received the room number and key code to the room in advanced via email but still I get nervous and anxious when there is nobody to speak to at the registration counter, but this is not a major issue as there is a phone at the counter which automatically connects to a staff who will assist if needed.

This was my second time at Hotel Torshavn, perfect for a week hiking and exploring in the Faroes, ideal small room for one person, no reception, not needed, good brekfast in room which turns into a separate Oriental Restaurant later.

Although they state the front desk is staffed, I arrived at 6:00pm and no one was there. I waited quite awhile then had to check in by phone. The rest of my stay was just fine, my room was clean and the location is great.

A great stay in Torshavn
Perfect location in downtown Torshavn. The breakfast selection was small (unlike Norway or Iceland's free breakfasts), but there was plenty, and hearty for my needs. The room was a tad small, but for one person and given the need to explore not be stuck in a room, it was very good. For the price, location, and free breakfast, you cannot beat this hotel in Torshavn. The hotel was clean and pleasant for my stay.

Hotel centrally located and comfortable. Breakfast was good. Only difficulty we had was with the self checkin service. Because we didn't have internet we were unable to receive the access code for the room. This proved to be really challenging. Thankfully another guest gave us the wifi code so we were able to receive the code. Other than that everything was great.

Great hotle in the centre of the city. Walkable to everything including the bus and ferry terminal about 8 mins. The harbour about 1 min. Grocery stores about 5 mins. The hotel itself is clean and quiet. The breakfast was plentiful with hot and cold choices. It didn't very but was plentiful. The room was an adequate size, space for luggage and to walk around.

Lovely Hotel in centre
Hotel very convient & centrally located on the waterfront close to restaurants. Rooms were comfortable with large windows, ours overlooking harbour. Basic amenities, TV, coffee maker - not lavish. Staff were exceptionally helpful with directions, restaurant suggestions, etc.. Parking can be difficult but staff helped with directions.

A hotel in the perfect location. Great view of the harbour from the room; easy walk to all of downtown. The hotel is a little older and we were told it's due for demolition and rebuilding in the next two years as it is very hard to make the building consistent with renewable energy. Glad to hear the old lift will stay though. Breakfast was pretty good, and we had fun watching some other guests make heaps of sandwiches with an entire loaf meant for everyone.

Very much worth the price
Friendly service, good breakfast and the room was nice. It could be a bit cold in the room though, since it was hard to open the window just slightly and the Faroese weather can be quite windy. I'd say it's rather wasteful to have these tiny shampoo bottles for the guests. Overall I'd say this hotel is good and deserves 4 or 5 stars for it's price.

I wish I had known that the hotel was not staffed before booking. This was a little unnerving coming from another country and not having phone service. The computer check in of course did not work and so I needed to to call to check in on the hotel phone. It all turned out ok but it would have been so much more welcoming and safe if there had been a person there

Really likes Tórshavn and the Faroes. The hotel was central and clean. Really nice. One thing I wasn’t sure about is that it doesn’t have a reception. Everything is done remotely by email. This makes the stay a little impersonal. However, the stay was great and the bed was comfortable.

The location is excellent. And so is the restaurant which is Asian/Thai inspired. But the hotel is way overdue for a complete makeover. An ancient lift, out of date bathrooms, and worn carpets. Our room was very noisy. People partied until 4.00am every night. The beds are clean and comfortable.

Do not know what is a Queen Size bed
Our stay was awful mainly because event hough we got a confirmation saying we will get a Queen Size bed, we were given 2 single beds put next to each other. When I asked the receptionist she insisted they call these 2 single beds together as Queen Size bed. I have travelled to 158 countries and NO WHERE I have heard such a crazy comment.

Central location, wonderful staff and fantastic rooms is how I'd describe this hotel.

I don't mind my bedset ans towels didn't get changed for the 3 nights of my stay but at keast give me enough toiletries would be nice. Breakfast hours is good.
