I stayed one week at the Hotel Streym in Tórshavn, the capitol of the Faroe Islands. First, if you're from the Eurozone, everything is expensive at the Faroe Islands (even Denmark is expansive), but if you starting to compare the prices from Streym to other hotels, they're pretty affordable. You get a spotless clean room with separate en-suite bath, shower... More

I have visited the Faroe Islands three times now, and each time I have stayed at this Hotel, The experience has always been most enjoyable, and I can and do thoroughly recommend it. It is a small, quiet, (although the road is close, and it is a main road, into Torshavn) basic and relaxed family run facility. The rooms are... More

I travel a LOT. I rarely come across a hotel whose assistance and hospitality reach this level. Helpful and car hire that is a boon to a trip to the Faroe Islands, which in itself is a must. Bathrooms are a little small, but that is the European approach. Otherwise breakfast is good in an otherwise fairly expensive country.

What it lacks in location (though the center is just 10 min walking) it has in modernity and praticality, and reasonable price considering other options in Torshavn. Rooms are ok, clean and the bathroom has underfeet heat system (good!). Breakfast is ok, too. Only problem was that staff at reception told us that we won't have any problem for renting... More

The hotel itself was very basic, feeling more like a motel or high class hostel. Location is ok, a few minutes walk from the city center. View of the bay and Nólsoy from our room. Breakfast was pretty simple too, but good enough to get a decent start on the day. If you're looking for a great start, take a... More

I stayed at this hotel from 18-22 July 2012. This hotel is very much a case of what you see is what you get. Prices in Torshavn are high and this is a relative bargain. It is rather like an upmarket hostel. It is on a surprisingly busy ring road and, while the front rooms do have ocean glimpses, the... More

I would recommend the Streym for the budget conscious traveller who would rather spend their money on doing things than the place they lay their head each night. There are many plusses here. The room was simple but with everything I needed. At first, I was worried as I faced out onto what seemed like a busy road but traffic... More

Stayed here for 2 nights - the 1st and last nights of our 5 nights in The Faroe Islands. It was located very close to the bus station and an easy walk into the centre of the city. Our room was adequate and clean, with a comfortable bed. All the staff were genuinely very friendly and helpful. Internet access and... More

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
