Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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!

The hotel has cozy, modern yet sleek rooms. The breakfast was included in our rate and it had lots of options to choose from. We ate in the casual lobby bar and it was delicious, they offer a more upscale restaurant with a set menu as well though we didn't try it. It is a hike from town to the hotel, it's doable in the daylight but it does take at least 20 minutes, maybe longer depending where you're coming from.

The view was not as expected. We had a superior room with sea view. However, construction machines took the view completely. So no sea view. Room OK, breakfast fine.

The hotel is very nice and has a privileged location overlooking the city and the harbour. There is absolutely no point to booking a room in the Annex. No view from any room and a walk across the parking lot to get to the main building. The room is comfortable, but not worth the price.
