Beautiful location and a quick stop for ring road drivers. Rooms were very spacious and clean!
We loved our stay at the Fosshotels Eastfjords! The location is in a quaint town and our welcome at reception was warm and helpful. The museum pieces in the lobby (admission included for guests) were fun to look at. The lodging is well appointed in a spacious room that felt luxurious. We had a balcony room with a stunning view of the fjord. The only drawback was the mattress, it was very firm. Other than that, highly recommended!

Lovely town. Good hotel and staff. It’s a very old place repurposed as a hotel. A bit scary to think it was once a hospital. The museum and pictures add to the eerie experience. Our 10 year daughter was super scared. Rest of the stay was fine.
Large, nicely appointed and refreshed room in historic building with wood floors, lots of angles and character. Our room and bathroom were quite large with a nice water view. Very quiet.
We've stayed twice at the Fosshotel Eastfjords. It's a great place to stay for its beauty and access to the rest of the area. The staff is always very friendly and we love the location.
This was my favorite place to stay. The hotel was beautiful, the little town was beautiful. Everyone was so nice. I felt like I was in a story book, everything was so romantic and gorgeous.
If you are making the trek around Iceland this is a great place to stop and rest. A small and cute museum is part of the hotel which is a nice touch. If you plan on arriving late, you may struggle to find food, but as long as you plan ahead for staying in a small town, you will love the hotel and the Eastfjords are stunning in all weather types.
Gentleman at front desk reception was wonderful, the staff in the restaurant/bar for both dinner and breakfast were cold and unfriendly. Wonderful view of the fjord right on the water, however be aware that there is a fish factory and at times the smell is extremely strong. Loved our clean and comfortable room.
The museum in the lobby part of the buildung was so great! Be sure to see the downstairs section too. The rooms were adorable and we had the most lovely view of the fjord. All was great.
This hotel used to be a small-town hospital. The “free exhibit” showcased next to the check-in counter and underground tunnel (tbh I am too scared to go through that tunnel to the restaurant across the street) made me feel uneasy. When we checked in, no one were at the reception desk, but the pre-world world hospital setting with figures wearing 18th century clothes freaked me out. I couldn’t stay inside the reception area to wait for the staff. Anyway, I will never pick this hotel again.
I had an issue: I booked two days at the hotel, included breakfast. At the first day the breakfast was complete, with white bread, croissants and sweet pastries. At the second day only white bread was available because a big group of a travel agency finished with the all assortment of sweets breads. More five couples of guests stayed without this service. A note: we payed for the breakfast, it is not for free… this is a non organization method to supply all the guest in the same way.
Raphael was s gem! What a fantastic receptionist. The property was super clean and comfortable. I would add a few options to the menu, but in all, will recommend.
