Hotel Foroyar

Overlooking Tórshavn, the capital city of the Faroe Islands, and its harbour, Hotel Foroyar is a comfortable, contemporary choice often used by visiting dignitaries and sports teams.

Stretching out along a green hillside in three grass-roofed tiers, its 106 rooms are spacious and stylish with panoramic views out to the North Atlantic.

The restaurant, Gras, is the setting for continental breakfasts as well as quality buffet lunches and dinners made from local produce, notably plenty of freshly caught seafood.

Downtown Tórshavn is an easy walk away and you can explore further afield by following cycling and walking trails or even by horse.
