This quirky hotel reminded me a bit of an upmarket Hostel. The rooms were small and relatively basic but spotlessly clean, with satellite TV (albeit mainly danish channels) an free Wifi. The Beds were comfortable and the small bathroom had underfloor heating. The View was of the bay. Breakfast was a buffet style continental affair, where you tidy up after... More

The hotel is absolutely fine, but not a lot more than that. It is probably an exceptional value in comparisson to other hotels in Torshavn, an expensive city to say the least, but has the basic appeal (and feel) of a college dorm. There are some very clever slogans painted by each doorway, and on the landings--things like "This room... More

We stayed for 3 nights. The owner of the hotel was a great help to us, nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is budget one with many perks,free wi fi and Internet,complimentary breakfast and free tea and coffee available all day. The owner helped us organise trips using local buses and ferries as organised tours were too expensive. He... More

I stayed at Hotel Streym during July for three nights. The reception responded very quickly on my emails and I got good answers on my questions. I also hired a car thru Streym, they have a fairly good price. The procedure for hiring and getting the car was very simple without formalities - good ! Torshavn is not a large... More

We stayed here for a week in July 2011 and would definitely stay here again. It calls itself a no-frills hotel and I would agree but it has everything you need for a great stay in the Faroe Islands. We booked a good while in advance and managed to get a very good deal with the hotel. The per-night price... More

I rented a car from the hotel and that worked out great, and the price per day was good. The hotel is clean, the staff nice and very helpful. I like that they think of the environment, no changing of sheets or towels during the five nights I spent. Location is great, a few minutes walk to the center.

I spent a week at this hotel and my opinion is very positive. The location is easily accessible by car and both the port and the city center are within a few minute walk. Rooms are basic but spacious, clean and often with great view of the sea and the island of Nolsoy. Breakfast is good but there isn't a... More

Good position with view of the sea - if you ask. Wi-Fi is standard which is useful. Basic hotel but the owner – Aarge (sp?) is exceptional and went out of his way to help. He arranged for one of his hire cars to be waiting for us at the airport – and it was a very good price too.... More

This is not more than a bed-and-breakfast. The rooms facing the sea are very loud, due to street noise. All rooms are very loud if your neighbour is in. Paper walls. The location is still walking distance to the center, but much farther out than Hotels Hafnia or Torshaven. The correct price in most other places would be around €... More

Everything in the Faroes is expensive but this hotel is a perfectly adequate "budget" (£100 a night!) alternative to paying £200 a night at the Forayar (and no large coach parties!). It is right on teh sea, ask for a front room for a sea view and (it seemed) a bigger room. The style is minimalist - think a French... More
