Excellent hotel if you have a car otherwise book elsewhere as there is literally nothing nearby within a short walking distance. Staff are all 5 stars friendly and polite. Very nice facilities and excellent breakfast.
Overall a good stay. Room was modern but compact. Bed was very comfortable. Room was a bit warm at night and could not open window beyond a crack. Average value No restaurants (besides hotels) in immediate area.
The hotel is on the outskirts of the city so it's not the most centralized location. If you have a rental car, then it is no problem. The hotel is nicely decorated and very friendly staff. The studio was large enough for our family of four with a large enough kitchenette to make our own breakfast. I would not hesitate to stay here again.
Loved our stay. The staff at Hotel Føroyar are all fantastic. We stayed in the Annex, just across the parking lot from the main building. The Annex rooms were very comfortable and spotlessly clean. There were a couple warmer days when we wished the rooms had air conditioning, but we were able to keep it pretty comfortable by just opening the glass door. Having their own parking lot makes parking a breeze, and it's only a short drive from downtown. We spent most of our time exploring various islands around the Faroes, so this was a great home base for us. The daily breakfast was very good, and the views from the restaurant are incredible. Great bar in the lobby, too!
Loved our stay! It was super clean with comfortable beds and a good hot shower. It had AMAZING shampoo, body wash and hand soap! Nespresso pods in the room was a nice touch. Beautiful view of the sea. VERY limited TV. One of the nicest breakfasts we have ever had, with lots of international and Faroese options. Nice walk downhill into town which helped to find nice places to eat and then you burn it all off walking back up. The views alone are worth it.
Room is so clean and comfortable. Our kids liked to play outside and this hotel has big spaces to run around and hiking. Love this hotel
Free laundry also,
Highly recommended

Liked: Staff & service
The hotel did a wonderful job navigating the strike. Breakfast was delicious and cafe offered several options for lunch and dinner. Rooms were comfortable and clean but due for a refresh. Staff was exceedingly polite and friendly.
5 mins away from downtown, super easy to get to all the areas. Loved the heated floors! Only complaint is other guests were super loud above me but I get that’s not the hotels fault. Breakfast was yummy!
Very nice and quiet hotel a little away from the city. a view to the city from all rooms. Nice 5 km walk in the hills behind the hotel.
Remember to have the room temperature set to your needs before arrival as it take some days for adjusting due to floor heating.
I recently stayed at Hotel Føroyar, and overall, it was a good experience. The hotel offers stunning views over Tórshavn and the fjords, with comfortable rooms and a peaceful atmosphere. However, the room cleanliness could be improved—I noticed mold in the bathroom, which was disappointing. The breakfast was typical, but the staff, while friendly, were slow, and there were always dirty dishes left on the tables. The location is a bit remote, but the tranquility and beautiful surroundings make it a nice retreat.
Property was nice on a hill away from town. Staff was not too friendly. There were large parties in town. Room was comfortable and quiet, i felt safe. But did not eat on site. Lots of smokers crowded at front door. Large conference center.
Just have a look at our reservation history....!
That says it all.....
We always like the warm welcome we get upon checking in.
So far there was always a room available even though - due to the early arrival of the Norröna - we're at the Foroyar quite early.
We also enjoy the beautiful walks down to or up from the city center....it keeps us fit and we always enjoy the beautiful views.
To sum it up: it always feels like coming home
Scenic though far from the activity in Torshavn. Steep hike to get from town center to hotel with poor signage on the way. Hotel itself is comfortable.
