Formerly a bland modernist cube, this hotel's public areas are undergoing a stylishly modernist facelift. However, improvements have yet to reach the small, rather ordinary rooms.
Bright, friendly and wonderfully central, and rates here include an excellent breakfast. Guesthouse and dorm rooms alike are neat and well equipped.
This basic site overlooks a wind-battered, rocky beach and has musty little shower blocks. Book through the tourist office.
Arguably Tórshavn's best hotel, the Hafnia has discreetly decorated rooms with satellite TV, telephone and minibar. The eyesore south façade is less discreet.
Above the Smúkkuhjørnið jewellery shop, this handy if style-challenged eight-room guesthouse is more B&B than hotel. Phone ahead to arrange arrival times.
Of a mixed bag of well-kept rooms with fridge and TV, the best are those at the top, notably corner-room number 23 which has extensive harbour views. Shared cooking facilities.
High above the city with super views towards Nólsoy, this turf-roofed palace has trendy touches, a swish reception area and an excellent restaurant serving sushi and scallops.
Functional, ensuite student accommodation here is rented to tourists during the summer vacation. Take bus No 1 to Handilsskúlin.
This pleasant, unmanned hostel has a good kitchen and coin-laundry but is inconveniently located beside the hilltop Hotel Føroyar, which handles bookings and check-in. Central Tórshavn's 3km away by road, 25 minutes on foot using shortcuts.
