Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

It’s the location…glad I chose Hotel Hafnia. Easy check-in, name and handed a key. Elevator…I used the stairs. Rooms are small, but comfortable for a single. Double beds feel tiny so glad I was solo for this trip. Good Wi-Fi, linens. Yes, recommend.

Our family of three had an absolutely wonderful stay at Hotel Hafnia. We spent five nights in the cottage called Baker Hansen's House and really loved it. While the ladder to the bedrooms was a little intimidating at first, we quickly adapted and loved the charm of this special place. Breakfast was lovely each morning (though could be crowded so allow some time) and wine hour was appreciated in the afternoons, the few days we were available for it. This hotel is perfectly located and we so enjoyed our time here and in the Faroe Islands.

Our experience at Hafnia Hotel was nothing short of wonderful. The hotel's central location allowed us to explore Thorshavn with ease, and the nearby public parking was a huge plus. The cozy and tastefully decorated rooms provided a comfortable retreat after a day of sightseeing. We looked forward to our daily complimentary glass of wine, a perfect way to unwind. The themed floors named after local spots added a charming touch to our stay. The highlight, undoubtedly, was the scrumptious breakfast boasting an extensive selection. The staff's warmth and friendliness made us feel right at home.

We have spent 4 unforgettable nights at Hafnia Hotel, We have simply loved everything of our stunning apartment. It's located in the city center, just in front of the port. we have Stayed in a huge flat, two floors, private bathroom, private kitchen with everything you need. Despite the beauty of our flat what we will never forget is for sure the fantastic breakfast: one of the most complete ever tried. It's a such fantastic place and we definitely recommend to all the people who will visit Torshavn

We stayed in Hafnia Hotel four nights, in an accessible room, since my wife is using a wheelchair. The location is central, colours and design is tasty, and we were overall happy with the room and bathroom, cleaning and service. Excellent breakfast. Good value for the price. Friendly and smiling staff, but the young Faeroe breakfast staff should try to speak Scandinavian rather than English with Norwegians like us, Danes and Swedes. The dinner menu should have had more options, but there are many restaurants just a few steps from the Hotel

The hotel has a lot going for it; really friendly reception staff, good bar area, a free glass of wine each day and a pleasant ambience. It is in a good location close to excellent restaurants but parking isn’t easy. There were also lots of temporary road closures so navigation was challenging in the car. The room was good, spacious (although the bathroom is small and the sink located in the lobby area by the door and with plenty of storage, seating electric sockets and the bed was comfortable. It was stuffy without the window open - which was a problem as (other reviews note this too) there is a lot of noise most of the night from revellers in the street outside. We slept poorly as a result. You could still hear the noise with the window shut and it continued until 4 or 5am. The biggest issue though, and this spoilt our stay. Was the chaos at breakfast time. The breakfast room doesn’t have enough seats to accommodate the large number of organised tours, and they operate a strange system of reserved tables which exacerbates the problem - eg one day a table was reserved at 9 am and they were trying to stop people sitting at it 8 am! We sat there and said we’d be out by 9, which they reluctantly agreed, but there were still lots of unused, reserved seats and people struggling to find somewhere. The overcrowding isn’t the exception, it happened three out of four days. They don’t tell you you need to reserve, and even when we did it didn’t work as there were just too many people randomly seizing any available space. We weren’t the only people complaining about this, but the poor staff were powerless to do anything. The solution? Either allocate time slots for the tour groups or use the cafe downstairs, which has loads of extra space but doesn’t open until after hotel breakfast time. They could easily allocate that space to one or more tour groups and it would make staying at the hotel much more efficient and pleasant for everyone.

Dear LondonFriday Thank you very much for choosing to stay at Hotel Hafnia. I would like to thank you for taking the time to write a review of your stay, it really helps us improve on our services and guest experiences. We are a city hotel, therefor we are unable to control any road closure, noise from the streets and parking issues. but i am happy to hear that you had a good time regardless of these issues . I am happy to let you know that we found a solution to the breakfast issue, as groups dine in our café to make it less chaotic in the restaurant. I do hope we get the chance to welcome you back again at Hotel Hafnia Best regards Súsanna Elisa Andreasen Reception Supervisor

I was there for 4 days and everything was perfect. The rooms are made in the best retro style and are well and stylishly furnished. The bed was really good and there were good TV channels so I could watch World Cup in football, which I needed ;-) The staff were very welcoming and helpful. All in all, I would recommend this hotel to everyone as a super good hotel for both singles, couples and business. I thank and bow
