Our top choices for Fort Skansin hotels

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!"

Top Fort Skansin Hotel Reviews

Hotel Føroyar

4/10 Poor

"The place was not roomy for 4 people. Our pull out sofa bed has 2 pillows and no duvet… it was already after midnight when we figured it out, we have no duvet or blanket available. We didn’t want to bother the front desk or if there’s one available after midnight. So we just grabbed a sheets( like a big pillow) out side the hallway hamper just have something to use as blanket. The next day the hotel called that they’re missing 2 duvet…which in fact there were never duvet at the first place….so sorry but the experience of this place was horrible….sleep in a cold room."

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."

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."
