Very nice town. Was the starting and stopping point for multiple day bicycle tour of Westfjords. People were great especially Tyler Wacker of Cycling Westfjords who provided advice and support for our tour.

The idea base camp for time spent in the Westfjords region.
The idea base camp for time spent in the Westfjords region. If you have a rental car, you can drive anywhere else you'd like to see, but Ísafjörður has the most options for town activities. The location in the fjord is incredible. I would visit again.

This town is wonderful and quaint.
This town is wonderful and quaint. The setting is stunning, with mountains surrounding the entire town. The people there are very friendly, and it is easy to walk around. The streets have beautiful flower plantings, and there is a fun nughtclub where you can meet local townspeople. We highly recommend it!

Stayed two nights in this gem of a town. First night we camped and it was a fantastic campground. Second night was calling for snow so stayed in the hostel. Best Bonus grocery store we have seen with prices much less than anywhere else in Iceland.

Interesting in itself; however, you need a car to explore the area. Side roads, not too difficult, lead to many beautiful sights. I probably said "Wow" more in the few days in Westfjords than any other time.

The drive to Isafjorour we stopped at Dynjandi Waterfall...
The drive to Isafjorour we stopped at Dynjandi Waterfall called Thundering Waterfall. It is actually several waterfalls topped by a bridal veil large fall. Well worth the steep hike up. One of the most beautiful waterfall we visited in Iceland. The drive back toward Reykjavik was stunning along five fjords and many waterfalls. Glacier views. Lava fields. And mountains. So wanted to eat at Tjoruhusid. But needed a reservation and could not get in. Recommend making a reservation before you leave home. A perfect ending to our trip to the Westfjords.
Room was clean and comfortable. We had access to a lounge / kitchen next to our room. Nobody else used it on the two days we were there but with only one table for breakfast it could have been a problem if six or more other rooms on the same floor wished to use it at the same time. Similarly we also got access to the only shower on the floor when we wanted. The use of the washing machine was great as we had already been touring Iceland for two weeks when we arrived here. The location was great for walking round the town.
Fabulous property. Has everything you will need on your holiday, including a washing machine and dryer which is a definite plus. The owner is a wonderful host and gave us a tour of the property which he is very proud of. Tangs is in the centre of town so restaurants, a fantastic bakery/cafe and the supermarket are all within easy walking distance.
The breakfast was great and included. There's an attached spa. The ambiance in the hotel bar/restaurant is quite nice and it's right along the water which I appreciate.
