Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
Everything was spotless and updated. Met the owner and he was very nice to talk to so I learned a lot more about Iceland and got all my pesky questions answered. They were very thoughtful about everything at the guesthouse, and very accommodating allowing us to store some food in their fridge. The room itself was a bit tight in space but seems on par with most guesthouses here. Would recommend.
Lovely quiet location perfect for a road trip pit stop or base for exploring the Westfjords. The hot springs are a lovely bonus. The staff were extremely friendly. We had read the buffet dinner was good and were glad we decided to go for it. Food in Iceland is expensive and this offered excellent value as well as being convenient and very good quality.
Charming guesthouse in the centre of Hólmavik (which is a very small place!) Opposite the restaurant (Riis) which was excellent. Adjacent to the harbour (Whale tours with Lakitours). Very small and friendly (about 8 rooms) with a nice breakfast. Cafe area and a sun terrace on the 1st floor overlooking the bay (saw Whales in the bay from here). One of our two rooms was with shared bathroom (with 3 other rooms) but this was fine - very clean. The other with ensuite. Parking directly behind the hotel.
Great guesthouse with a welcoming host (Thanks Sigrun!!), good sized room and a basic breakfast - it feels a bit like staying at my mom’s house :)
