Havgrím Seaside Hotel 1948

0.9 km from Glarsmiðjan

"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 Glarsmiðjan Hotel Reviews

Hotel Føroyar

4/10 Poor

"Over priced and over rated…a 3 star Hotel with a 5 star price tag. Guests pay an additional $100 for 3 hours use of the Spa Facilites, massages are an additional charge. It was a disappointment and waste of a lot of money."

1 Bedroom Apartment | Central | Tórshavn

6/10 Okay

"Property listing is not at all accurate including the address. When you put the address on GPS, it takes you to a different apartment property. We had to call the agent because the code did not work but got lucky that the cleaning crew appeared at the wrong address and took us to the right place. Amenities listed are not in the apartment. There is no microwave or dishwasher. We had a week long stay and had specifically booked this place for its amenities. So it was a huge inconvenience! Washer/dryer is not in the unit and outside and commonly used by other residents. The dryer went on for 3 hours and clothes came out wet. The other dryer is being used as storage ?? Bathroom and bedroom are very tiny so probably not good for more than 2 people. The bathroom got clogged and water leaked out on the floor. There is no outlet for water so water puddled all night until the cleaning crew came in next morning. After cleaning, the crew left the wet towels on the floor. This apartment is not worth the price. The only good thing is the location and its proximity to the harbor and all else including restaurants. It is all walking distance. There is no view if that’s what you care for. We did not use parking."

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."
