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.

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.

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.

Never received code to check in. Upon arrival had to call number, owner found us, was very friendly, and got us checked in, The hotel seemed to be one floor on top of a strip mall. We missed it the first drive by. I had reservations at first. No lobby, no amenities. Upon entering the room, we couldn’t have been more surprised. Stayed in a different hotel every night. This was the most spacious and comfortable room. Sitting areas for us so we don’t have to sit on the bed. Coffee maker for pods or tea. Room very clean, bed very comfortable, ocean view a little obscure, but good. Room is not oceanfront. It is ocean view. Area fantastic, charming little walkable village. Great for watching sunset. Restaurant only open 2 hrs for breakfast (not free) so we did not get to it. most disappointing but nothing to do with the hotel about 11 PM, there was a screaming child in the room next to us who continued to scream & cry most of the night, so almost zero sleep. Again nothing to do with the hotel. Our room was fantastic. Loved it and would stay again. Area fabulous.

avoid this property

Normally, the property sends us the access code 24 to 48 hours before our arrival, but we did not receive it. On the day of our arrival, we tried calling their phone number multiple times, but no one answered. Concerned that it might be a scam, we decided to arrive early, around 3 PM. When we arrived, there was a phone on-site that we used to call them repeatedly. Eventually, a lady answered and told us she was busy and couldn't provide the code, instructing us to come back after 4 PM. When we returned at 4 PM, a man was there who helped us call the lady (presumably the manager). We finally received the access code, but it was only after entering the room that we received an email with the room number and access code. This experience significantly disrupted our travel plans and diminished our overall impression of the property. I would advise against booking this property due to the poor communication and lack of timely support.

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.

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.
