Top Fort Skansin Hotel Reviews

Hotel Føroyar

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, modern and spacious property. Room has breathtaking views of the harbor. Great Wi-Fi and one of the best showers. I’ve seen traveling all over the world - excellent water pressure and plenty of hot water. Varied and tasty breakfast and food and beverage otherwise was top-notch. Only negative is that it is a bit far from the city center. They say it’s a 15 minute walk to town, but that really only gets you to the outskirts and to go to the center of town is closer to a 30 minute walk. But there was an easy, if a little pricey taxi service that was always readily available. On balance, the extra time to get down to the harbor area was worth it and I would definitely stay here again."

62N Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A great little hotel right near the waterfront. The staff was so helpful finding fun things to do, and everything else. The breakfast was great…prepared by the restaurant downstairs, which helps a lot in getting going for the day early. Ask for a room overlooking waterfront, with a large balcony. It really makes a difference. Absolutely would star here again."

Guesthouse In The Heart Of Tórshavn

10/10 Excellent

"This is a self-service guest house so do not expect hotel-level services. There is no staff on site. But it is an economical alternative to Torshavn's expensive hotels. Its location is unbeatable. During my stay all the other guests were respectful and quiet so there were no problems. The bathrooms are shared but proved to not be a problem. Different folks had different schedules so there was never an issue of accessing a bathroom. The hotels.com listing mentions parking. This is not correct. There is no dedicated parking. But there are a couple of public lots of only a modest walk away where you can park 23 out of 24 hours without moving your car. The public spaces in the immediate vicinity are free but restricted to 30 minutes or 2 hours...works well enough to unload your luggage but then you need to move your car to one of the longer term lots. The kitchenette is adequate. There is a shared fridge with a dedicate modest-sized space for each room, but no freezer. There are two food stores within 5 minutes' walk."

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."
