The town is a great stopover during a road trip, though its food options are limited and everything closes on the earlier side, so check hours before you go. Property was nice, staff was friendly, room was big and clean. Restaurant in the lobby was great for relaxing after a long day with a glass of wine and an appetizer. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Super comfy and quiet

Very large room with updated bathroom and a coffee maker. Centrally located but there is not much to see or do in town. Restaurant downstairs is good but pay attention during breakfast as they don’t refill much when things run out. This morning they were out of croissants, juice, milk, bread, coffee (asked for more), and cheese (asked for more)

This is by far the best hotel we stayed in Iceland. Nestled in the northern side of Snaefellesnes peninsula in Olasvik, the hotel is a very reasonable distance from Kirkjufellfoss. The room was spacious, and very clean. When I called up the customer service and asked to move me to a room with kitchen, she gladly did that for me. Such a nice gesture. We are a family of 4 and this was a family room with ocean view. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Room is nice and clean as shown in the picture. It also has a nice view of the town. The restaurant below offers a small discount if you are a hotel guest and isn't bad. The only problem with this place is that there is no one to check you in and help you. The wifi password was hard to find and the door doesn't close properly. The restaurant is the "help". There are steep stairs going up to the second floor where the bedrooms are - no elevators. Even a carry-on luggage was difficult to haul up.

An inn by the sea

An inn located by the sea, you can check in by yourself with a password sent to you. The guest rooms are on the second floor, and the restaurant is on the ground floor, so it is very convenient for food and accommodation.

Good amount of space in the apartment. Very clean. This was the cheapest place we could find at reasonably short notice but was pretty expensive for what we got. Very good base for exploring the Snaefelsness peninsula.

Great location in centre of town. But the town is small. Great restaurant just under the apartments. Apartments were roomy and had all appliances required. Maid changed towels, teatowels and cloths every day.

Lovely spacious studio apartment, easily enough room for all 3 of us. Clean and has everything needed. It is a little dated and the only thing that lets it down is no lift to get suitcases upstairs. Beware to other visitors that there is only one restaurant in town - but it is an excellent one!

Comfortable and clean

Received the key quote and room no. via email (although has been checking even before we left the hotel to continue our journey, did not see it till we arrived at the apartment). Easy access except need to climb the stairs with our luggage. The room is big and comfortable. There is also a restaurant at ground floor.

The apartment boasts a fantastic location with stunning views and overall cleanliness. The bathroom was also well-maintained. However, the only issue I encountered was the challenge of gaining access to the apartment. The digital key code was not provided in the initial email, so I had to call the provided number, which resulted in a delay before obtaining it.

The room is spacious. However we never received emails about the checkin instructions. The phone number provided did not work. Luckily 10 -15 minutes after emailing about our arrival, the property manager showed up. We have seen other tenants trying to figure out how to check in. The apartment has strong odor.
