Bobbing in the frothing North Atlantic, the remote, 18-piece Faroes are a picturesque patchwork of emerald pastures, dotted with sheep, gaily-hued cottages and tree-free moors. The sea is never more than three miles distant in this proud, assured land, where deep-rooted traditions remain strong. The coasts boast deep fjords, steep cliffs and looming headlands. Explore these fjords by wooden sloop or sail the coast by schooner. Walk the fells and brave the unpredictable weather to puffin spot.

Best Hilton Garden Inn Brand Hotel I Have Stayed in Before
Reviewed By WorldWideTravel88There was no international hotel chain in the Faroe Islands before, until Hilton Garden Inn opened in late 2020. In such circumstances, I would give them a lot of room for error before I criticize since there is zero competition but instead of being at the low end, while not being perfect it might be the single best HGI I have ever stayed in. We stayed in a junior suite; they only have one such room in the entire hotel out of 130 rooms. The room looked nice and fresh with modern design including some view of the sea and sheep nearby. I normally don't like green in the room but here it was matching well with the scenery outdoors. The only minor issue with the room was that the power plugs in the wall stopped working a couple of times during our stay and required the staff to reset the fuses. As is often the case with HGI, I found breakfast to be superior to comparable brands from other hotel chains for example Fairfield Inn by Marriott. They did not go as far as offering avocado toast from an a la carte menu, but rarely do I see half avocados in a hotel buffet so a “do it yourself” version of an avocado toast was possible, along with excellent smoked salmon. The restaurant could get very crowded at times but thankfully they had three small tables outside the restaurant and closer to the bar where we could sit and have more peace. Service was generally quite good but there was one hiccup during our stay. They missed housekeeping two consecutive days despite me specifically asking for it at reception before leaving for the day. On the second day I could see why: there was a large number of room keys scattered on a table as the hotel was preparing for the arrival of a big group so housekeeping prioritized cleaning rooms which had a check-out, rather than our room despite my request. Hotels which cater to group tours are often a negative for people who travel on their own and I guess we saw part of the consequences with the missed housekeeping. That being said, the room was great, the breakfast was above average, and without other hotel chains in Faroe I would return to HGI without hesitation.

Disappointment
Reviewed By 582miiakWe are staying here as I write this. A one week trip with 2 adults and a small child. The studio room was very dusty and the floor dirty as we arrived. Rooms were cleaned daily but it was very poorly; the floor was vacuumed only when we asked it to be done (twice during the week), dirty dishes were left in the room and also didn't bring new ones. Breakfast room was very very full and no free or clean tables were available. Many times juice dispenser was out of order or the juice had run out. No coffee cups and the coffee thermos itself was also empty. Roomservice was a joke; very pricy but poorly. We ordered a salad without nuts (allergy!) and we made it very clear as we ordered. When the salad was brought into our room there were nuts in it! And also no cutlery. We called the room service and they brought a new salad, again with no cutlery. As we were again asking for cutlery the waiter said "it's coming soon". We waited for 45minutes and nothing happened! With these prices I wouldn't recommed this hotel.

Cute and clean but far
Reviewed By Tin100tinI liked the hostel itself, big rooms, clean bathrooms, cozy. It is run by the Foroyar Hotel which is a very posh hotel with fantastic breakfast and dinner buffets. The hostel is in a separate building but you check in at the Foroyar. The views from the hostel are fantastic. It is located on a hilltop overlooking the city and harbor. The hostel site shows that it's 1.8 km to the city but it feels like it's much much further. It takes about 25 to 30 minutes to get down to the harbor from the hostel. I never tried to walk back up because the way is quite steep uphill. It is about $15 to take a taxi from the harbor area to the hostel. There are no restaurants other than the buffet at the hotel to eat at near the hostel. So basically you are having to go down to the city for pretty much everything. A great place if you want to be away from everything, although for me, it was a bit too far. But the hostel itself is fantastic!

Reasonable priced, beautiful location and view, friendly staff and clean room
Reviewed By Thor Bis all you need... This was the best place we stayed at on our one week travel to Faroe Islands. The place is close to town, and has a beautiful ocean view. The kitchen is large and spacious, and the rooms are really nice. The house is renovated, and looks new inside.
