Stay at Hotel Foroyar
Pros:

Or stay at the Hotel Foroyar was great! The breakfast was very good. The location of the hotel and the views were amazing.
We were a bit disappointed of the level of the rooms that would require a renovation.
Spa experience was amazing in the newly renovated spa, but please be noted that they request you to wear their own swimwear. You cannot wear your own.

great view and friendly staff
Pros:

we spent 4 days walking and sightseeing in the Faroe Islands. This hotel was a fine base for us. We had two meals in the restaurant. The first on a Tuesday was excellent so two days later we went again. This time good, but not excellent. Try the scallop starter. The beds and room size was fine and the view over Torshavn from the window was fascinating, watching ferries etc. come and go.

Nice stay, but not relative to the price point.
Pros:

Pros - amazing location overlooking Torshavn, beautiful spa, free parking
Cons - very expensive for what you get (rooms are very basic), maid service is haphazard (they make the bed, but don't always empty the trash cans or clean up used towels or things on the floor, they do not offer any sort of discount to hotel guests for spa usage (and it is very pricey simply to enter the spa).

Hotel is nice but quite far out of town. They advertise everywhere it is 15-20 min to centre of town but it's not. Staff were helpful

Dark/old ambience, no customer service, leftover food, mass processing
Pros:

We went to 1933 Cafe&Bar for Lunch. Overall cleanliness in serious need of improvement: tables were sticky and covered in crumbs, floors dirty. No friendly welcome from service members, you kind of get ignored. Burgers were somewhat decent, Sourdough bread with shrimps were definitely not fresh, maybe leftovers from breakfast.
Atmosphere in the lobby/bar was chaotic and loud: people came from the pool in wet clothes to have lunch, some people started filing their nails and polishing their toe nails at the table.
Overall a weird experience. Unfortunately would not recommend.

Many positives and initially unexpected negatives .
Pros:

Positive:
+ Nice, friendly and very helpful staff. Especially the reception.
+ Great design and the location
+ Very comfortable and large parking - with no extra charge
+ Comfortable studio rooms.

Negative:
- Only average+ breakfast.
- Internal restaurant requires booking that is hard to get. 5 nights we spent there and no chance to have a dinner at the hotel's own restaurant.
- Even though the SPA area is great in design, it does require extra payment (ca. DKK 500) which taken the room prices is just greedy...

Pros:

Loved our stay. The staff at Hotel Føroyar are all fantastic. We stayed in the Annex, just across the parking lot from the main building. The Annex rooms were very comfortable and spotlessly clean. There were a couple warmer days when we wished the rooms had air conditioning, but we were able to keep it pretty comfortable by just opening the glass door. Having their own parking lot makes parking a breeze, and it's only a short drive from downtown. We spent most of our time exploring various islands around the Faroes, so this was a great home base for us. The daily breakfast was very good, and the views from the restaurant are incredible. Great bar in the lobby, too!

Unique experience!
Pros:

If you want a true nordic experience, hotel Foroyar is definitely worth visiting. Location is cool, on top of the hill so views are great. Hiking-trails are close-by too. Hotel itself is really clean and staff superfriendly.
I think it's important to mention that although city centre is about 20min walk away, it might not be the easiest walk because when coming back, you have to walk up the hill. But there is a taxi service that reacts very quickly.
