Top Fort Skansin Hotel Reviews

Hotel Djurhuus

10/10 Excellent

"Nicely Clean up room. Sunrise view. As promised. Service staff went the extra mile to help and correct our booking entry with Expedia team. Recommended stay and will come by again .😁"

Havgrím Seaside Hotel 1948

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful location right on the shoreline, easy to get to from the airport. Lots of parking. Room was very clean and comfortable. Excellent breakfast buffet. Honesty bar and lovely common area. Staff were very accommodating. Absolutely nothing to fault with this venue."

Hotel Tórshavn

8/10 Good

"While it was a contact less check in, all went smooth. Room was very small, but we needed twin beds and there weren't a lot of options. They were comfortable. Putting suitcase under the bed helped with room size. Breakfast was a great perk. The biggest drawback was the bathroom. It was tiny with nothing besides a curtain to separate the shower from the sink / toilet area so the water spread well across the floor. Another challenge was parking. There is a public lot about a block away. We were concerned with getting ticketed for being there too long but all was f I ne. Wished we could have tried the restaurant but they were booked. Smelled fabulous. This is a great location and value. As a value traveler, I would stay again even with the bathroom."

1 Bedroom Apartment | Central | Tórshavn

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was clean and spacious with a very useful kitchen area (fridge, sink, oven, hob, kettle, toaster and coffee machine). The location was perfect - the marina, harbour and main city car park were all within easy walking distance (less than 5 minutes) and despite the housing density we were not overlooked. It was also pin-drop quiet despite us being there during peak tourist season - we slept well. Lots of shops and restaurants were also within easy walking distance as were a number of supermarkets and bakeries. It was a great base to explore the islands from."
