The old Thingstead of the Faroese has become a modern city. It has been opened up to the world, developed and globalized. It has grown considerably and is constantly on the move Besides being the capital and the seat of Government and administration, Torshavn is also a cultural
centre; Concerts, live theatre, and all sorts of exhibitions have become a natural part of life in the city which also offers excellent shopping opportunities. Also in other respects, life in Torshavn is thriving. The many
restaurants and cafes as the night lift in general make Torshavn the
meeting place all year round, and not only around the St. Olaf's Day festival, the national festival of the Faroe Islands. Torshavn is also a place of
business and in the face of globalization
business relations with other countries have increased considerably. Apart from the tourists that come to the Faroe Islands by sea, two airlines fly several
trips a day to and from the islands. All this naturally has an effect on the hotel and guesthouse industry. To meet this growing demand, more beds have been obtained. Old hotels and guesthouses have been renovated and new ones open up all the time. The changes and the development which we experience in Torshavn these days, are not likely to slow down in the years to come. On the contrary, sub sea tunnels are being made to connect the islands and as it is today, 86% of all Faroese people are now able to drive to Torshavn. This is bound to affect all aspects of the service sector. However, Torshavn has not forgotten its origin. A lot of effort has been put into preserving the old part of the town, Tinganes/Reyni, where the oldest house dates back to the thirteen-hundreds. A stroll through this old part of town, taking in the cosy atmosphere leaves you imagining how the people of Torshavn used to live in the old days.

Hostel.fo is run on a commercial basis but this is not the only explanation behind the success since we started in 1992. Accommodation and communication with the guest are our main passion and thereby the main motivation behind the whole
business. Although a generational change has taken place in the company, the objectives remain the same. What is new, however, is that in the recent years we have attempted to broaden the range of accommodation possibilities and bring more variety into the
business. As a result of this, we now attract a wider variety of visitors making our work at Hostel.fo more interesting and exciting all the time. At the same time, this makes a greater demand on us as host and provider. But our staff have chosen this as their life style, which means that we are able to preserve the close contact with our guests. Our aim is to provide cosy and
safe accommodation for our visitors. Hostel.fo enjoys visitors from all around the world.
