4 Best Hotels in Borgarnes, West Iceland and Snæfellsnes Peninsula

The loudest noise you'll hear at this beautiful 1890 house is birdsong, and although luxury amenities are not the focus, there's no substitute for the coziness of staying at this family's home. You can reserve a double room or a larger room if traveling as a family.

This hotel manages a good balance of business amenities and cozy and comfortable rooms. Each room has a private bathroom and Wi-Fi. The on-site restaurant, Café Bifröst, serves up a range of coffee, entrées, and snacks. Guest rooms are bright, the mountains offer unbeatable scenery, and a ton of hiking and biking trails surround the property. Be warned: the hotel and restaurant are located on a college campus, so it can get busy and a bit loud.

The striking views are the main attraction here, but the simply decorated guest rooms are a comfortable place to lay your head after a day of hiking the nearby mountain or fishing at the harbor. There are options for shared or private bathrooms, and the hotel staff can help set up activities for your stay.
