The place was just fine and met our needs. Only issue for us was the room was a bit tight, and our window opened to a backstreet where we could hear folks talking as they walked bye.

The cottage is modern, beautiful and clean. The living room is spacious and well equipped with kitchen facilities. The attic with beds has a very low ceiling and so one needs to be careful with not getting bumped on the head. The stairs to the attic is very narrow. We requested for sleep arrangements but was not entertained and would have appreciated an explanation. Overall, it is a nice stay!

Great location, very comfortable

Very comfortable hotel within walking distance to just about everything you want to see in Torshavn. There is a restaurant in the hotel that we didn’t try, but did try the attached cafe that was very good. Highly recommend for your stay in the old part of town. Parking is off site, but only a 4-5 minute walk.
