Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, while a bit cramped, were well outfitted with a view of the ocean. However, the glass door in the shower room being see-through was a bit off-putting as it lacked privacy. The service was accommodating and helpful, especially when they swiftly moved us to a new room upon arrival. The location was perfect for exploring the town with beautiful sea views. The dining experience, although good, didn't quite match up to expectations. The facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was great for exploring the town but my room was a bit warm and faced a busy road. The service was fantastic but some may find the lack of control over room temperature an issue.
The hotel offers a cozy stay despite some room temperature issues. The service is warm and welcoming, though it may not suit all travelers. Its location is excellent for exploring Torshavn, but the dining options are basic compared to other places. Overall, a decent option for the price.
