I loved staying in this little guest room. This was easy to find, in a great location for exploring the peninsula and near a supermarket, restaurants and walking trails up to the lighthouse. The rooms were tiny, but people gather in the reading room, which was so plush, welcoming and nicely stocked with books, games and plenty of coffee or tea in adorable platters. The beds were so comfortable.
Extremely hospitable and we loved the reading room. Very cozy.
Expensive place smaller than I expected.
What's not to love

Caring, kind, generous staff
Phenomenal location historically significant town near store museum and best mussels in iceland
Staying in this lovely hotel was just a nice expierence. Windows facing the open sea over the harbour, really comfy rooms ad beds, with a peculiar nordic style that you just can't avoid falling in love with. Breakfast is delicious and the owner is always nice and willing to help. It's certainly a must if you're planning to stay for the night in Stykkisholmur, be sure you don't miss it!
Awesome location
Pros:
This charming boutique hotel looks like it was plucked straight out of a Wes Anderson film with its perfectly curated mid-century Scandinavian decor. It still is a modern hotel in every other respect though, with modern bathrooms, comfortable beds, and good wi-fi. The staff is friendly and professional — ready to help with local travel tips and restaurant recommendations.
Cons:
For the price, it seemed a little excessive to charge extra for breakfast. It was good (the smoothies are the best part), but wasn't dramatically better than comparable hotels that included breakfast in their rates.
Good breakfasts. Eggs. Cold cuts. Good coffee
Fantastic hotel opposite the gorgeous Norwegian house. Lovely building, the rooms are immaculate - even the smallest single is a study in how to make the best of the space. Super comfy beds and the staff are so friendly. Breakfast is pretty amazing too.
Lovely boutique hotel designed with traditional Nordic style and a hint of modern accent. Staff, service and breakfast are perfect.
