  1. Perched on a hillside above Tórshavn, this hotel looks out over the capital, Nólsoy island, and the fjord in a way that makes you feel the Faroes are performing for you. Rooms run from compact doubles to family-sized Annex spaces, all concrete and natural materials, spare in a way that suits the treeless landscape outside. Ruts, the evening restaurant, cooks with produce from the islands' farms and waters, and the Ress Spa offers heated pools and saunas.

    Two honors, in evidence:
