Reviews for Hotel Streym
Review 1:Very close to the ferry terminal. Equally distant (a short 5min walk) to the 'center of town' or the shopping center. Very helpful & friendly staff
Review 2:The view is absolutely amazing from the feon facing room and all the staff were incredibly helpful. The owner even went to the store to buy a toothbrush for my colleague. Top notch service. I will be back again!
Review 3:Stayed Sunday, nothing is open, weather was bad ended up with lunch from supermarket, fresh bread and salmon, only fast food open!
Review 4:Location good for centre.
Review 5:The staff were not particularly friendly and whilst the hotel was functional, it was utilitarian to the point of being a hostel. Despite confirming a double bed twice, we were given a twin.
Review 6:The hotel was located a little way out of the main section of town which was a plus as it meant it was nice and quiet. The breakfast was good.
Review 7:Rooms have wafer thin walls so rooms are noisy. The owner attempted to overcharge myself and other guests by 900DKK, £GB90 for three nights. The reason was that the booking was during a 'football' weekend. Yet the booking.com cost was 2085DKK. The attempted charge was 2985DKK. The receptionist had to call the owner who then accepted the lower cost. Other guests were also being over-charged. Had to ask for a receipt which was not stamped by the hotel. Payment was 'demanded' on check-in. (Do not like being ripped off by a hotelier and to add when discussed with Faroese they were very embarrassed this was done.)
Review 8:Location good.
Review 9:Shower booth blocked (water not drained well). Will be very nice if early check in is possible (Ferry arrived so early and got no where to go...)
Review 10:Very near to the Ferry terminal. <10min walking distance. Very near to the city centre.
Review 11:Rooms were not very clean and rather small and spartan for the room rate. Room was not cleaned at all on one occasion (same on another day for another of our rooms). Reception was typically not staffed. Limited parking. No elevator.
Review 12:Excellent location in walking distance of downtown. Good continental breakfast. Lighthearted/funny room descriptions in the corridors. Good enough WiFi (but in the Faroe Islands there was good WiFi almost everywhere)
Review 13:walls were a bit thin
Review 14:not quite central location but only about 10 minutes walk to the city centre and about five minutes away from the bus terminal, simple but very clean and comfortable room, very friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast buffet
Review 15:Would have liked facilities in the room to make tea.
Review 16:The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room had all the facilities advertised and there was plenty of space. Breakfast was very good. It was very close to the bus station.
Review 17:Room was so small, me and my bag were one too many. Cleaning lady entering the room at 9:30am without knocking, just grumbling
Review 18:Breakfast buffet Cleanness
Review 19:The hotel was ideally situated for having a hassle-free weekend to go exploring Torshavn and the surrounding area. The relaxed ambience of the hotel, and the friendly and the extremely helpful staff, allowed you to have greater freedom to do what you wanted to do - to visit and experience everything the Faroe Islands has to offer.
Review 20:No frills accomadation No elevator of you have heavy bags
Review 21:Very close to the centre of Torshavn so possible to walk everywhere downtown. Breakfast is good for kick starting the day
Review 22:the rooms are rather plain (but the beds were very comfortable), and the internet was somewhat intermittent.
Review 23:the hotel has lovely sea views out towards Nolsoy. breakfast was lovely. the breakfast room and the comfy lounge each overlook the ocean. Staff were genuinely cheerful and helpful.
Review 24:- the walls are very thin so you hear the neighbours.
Review 25:- Friendly and helpful staff - Just outside the center, so easy parking in front of the hotel and everything is in walking distance, the center is less than 500 m. walking
Review 26:Single rooms are really small and the walls are paper thin. Reception is open only from 6 or 6.30am till 9.30pm? Could cause extra effort if departure/arrival is outside of aforementioned times.
Review 27:Few minutes walk from the harbor or Skansin/Tonganes and a 15 min walk to Helipad. Car rental (cheap and flexible). Nice buffet breakfast. Warm room. Service is friendly even if the staff speaks better Swedish than English.
Review 28:Good location, a 10 minute walk from the center of Torshavn (if that). Close to lots of good restaurants, the sea view is amazing. Helpful front desk employees, peaceful. The hotel is basic, but it's comfortable and WiFi works everywhere.
Review 29:I didn't like the lack of soundproofing in the bedrooms! Nor did I like the fact that there is no-one to help you carry your large case up the stairs.
Review 30:I liked the very laid back atmosphere of the place. The breakfasts were good and it was great that you could go to the dining area at anytime and make yourself a hot drink. Olivina, who oversaw breakfast, was so kind and helpful.
Review 31:I'll be glad if you could remove the building on the other side of the road.
Review 32:The very helpful staff, the good room and the good location.
Review 33:There is no fridge or coffee machine in the room

Review 44:Much noise! No privacy...
Review 45:The islands are beautiful!
Review 46:A cozy hotel on a perfect location, very close to the busterminal
Review 47:I really missed not having a fridge in the room or a lift. No bacon or hot food at breakfast
Review 48:Quiet spacious room with sea view
Review 49:Very clean, basic room but comfortable
Review 50:Small bed.
Review 51:Location close to Torshavn centre (7 min walk) Breakfast. Friendly staff. Fast wi fi
Review 52:I like the kindness of the staff. Car rental service ….. very cheap.
Review 53:My room is at the end of corridor, so ot is very hard to get wifi.
Review 54:The location is good, near bus station.
Review 55:The hotel is excellently located for both the centre of town, buses and the Nolsoy ferry. The staff were always very helpful.
Review 56:Cheap looking room. Badly insulated. Limited choice at breakfast. Erratic Wi-fi.
Review 57:Comfortable bed. Efficient heating. Good location.
Review 58:Good location close to centre. Their car rental service is great and inexpencive.
Review 59:A bit on the pricy side for what it offered.
Review 60:The complimentary breakfast was excellent and the view from the room was stunning. It was exactly like it needed to be for our trip.
Review 61:Single room quite small, but sufficient, the ones on the second floor do not look against the wall, but above it, so it's o.k.
Review 62:The breakfast, the location close to the harbour / the bus terminal.
Review 63:WiFi somewhat erratic. In a country with 90% of the economy based on fish, there could have been some Scandinavian style fish with the breakfast.
Review 64:The location is excellent, 10 minutes beautiful walk to the town centre, and facing the ocean. Very friendly and helpful staff. Rooms are functional and very clean.
Review 65:Generally, the sea view is limited due to a building in front of this hotel. Stayed for two nights and the breakfast was much better on the first morning. I believe this is due to the number of guests staying in the hotel.
Review 66:My second stay at Hotel Styrem as I went to Gjogy for two nights. This time round a better room was given at the third floor with "sea view". Well, I must say it was comfortable to stay at Hotel Styrem.
Review 67:The room given was okay but there is this weird smell in the toilet. This hotel has a wooden interior structure and the toilet has this laminate over its wooden structures(e.g. floor and walls). So I believe that the stench might be due to the chemical reactions of wood and water.
Review 68:Was given a room at the corner which was fairly comfortable. The breakfast was surprisingly good with a wide variety of choices. The location of this hotel was a bit off but Torshavn is really small. But for those who use the Bus Terminal, this hotel is pretty good as it is very near to it.
Review 69:I found the Faroe Islands very expensive - my room was comfortable enough, but quite basic for the price, though it seemed to be one of the cheaper hotels in town!
Review 70:Staff were friendly and helpful, very clean, good location with easy walk to ferry terminal and the town centre. Wi-Fi & breakfast included.
Review 71:There are elements of youth hostel to it.
Review 72:A really helpful team, unphased by an unexpected 04.00 arrival and accommodating of all upheavals. Helpful advice. Nice notices.
Review 73:The room was tiny, but I got used to that. Although the room was spotless, there was an unpleasant odour from the bathroom, which I Didn't get used to. The sound-proofing between the rooms wasn't great.
Review 74:Great location, although as Torshavn is so small, most hotels there will have a great location! Nice cold-meat-buffet style breakfast. It's reasonably priced by Faroese hotel standards.
Review 75:Minor problem. Room was not made up 2 days in a row despite putting up sign and reminding reception. However, it did not bother us too much. No lift. Have to walk up 2 floors.
Review 76:Very Friendly reception and restaurant staff.
Review 77:Minimal facilities in the room and generally - not very well appointed and no daily cleaning of the room. Poor value for money. variable staff - the lady on breakfast was v good and attentive but the office staff/management were not interested at all - no customer service skills and rarely there.
Review 78:Location near the centre of Torshaven. View (partial) over the waterfront) and a reasonable breakfast room. Wifi. Clean generally. Whilst I would recommend Torshaven for a visit - this is not the hotel I would choose to stay in there again.
Review 79:Nothing, everything was great!
Review 80:The staff was very friendly and helpfull, super clean hotel, comfortable and a very nice breakfast in the morning plus free coffee and tea the rest of the day
Review 81:Don't book a single room (broomcupboards looking out at a dank wall)but only 100 Krona to upgrade to a twin which is great value.
Review 82:Cheap as chips. And in the town centre but with ample free parking. Bigbright comfy airy rooms overlooking the sea. Very decent breakfast.
Review 83:Almost anywhere else it would be at most half the price. Staff can seem abrupt for US standards, but they do mean well and do their best to help.
Review 84:Well located, not in the center of town, but Torshavn isn't that large. A 10-minute walk to the center, and close to 2 convenience stores or small supermarkets. Funny inscriptions of the room numbers and floors. Helpful gentleman at reception.
Review 85:Single rooms tiny, heating unreliable.
Review 86:Good staff, friendly service.
Review 87:Ikea furniture, very basic hotel, extremely noisy rooms.
Review 88:Excellent location, bed was comfortable.
