Wonderful large shared lounge area with a large TV to relax and unwind from exploring all day. The kitchen is very modern and well equipped and the same for the bathroom. Extra bonus was the washer and dryer available (for a small charge) enabling us to catch up on laundry.

Old Airline Guesthouse is originally built in 1946 and at that time there were no street names so every house got its own name, this house was named Solheimar in 1969 the house was extended as is bit obvious wen looking at the house, but as expected hose needs bit of attention. Up until 1985 the house serves as the towns Air terminal for domestic flights and air freight, this is were the name of the guesthouse originates from, but the house is called by locals Gamla flugfelagid that translates to Old airline.
We believe that life is short and try to make the best of every day, and do not take life or our selves to seriously. We like to travel, ski, sail and have good people for dinner or barbecue (some times couple of bees as well).
Old Airline Guesthouse, is located in the older part of town on the main street of Hofn, with most services and restaurants in short walking distance. We offer an home feeling guest house with living room, kitchen and terrace for out guests to enjoy. There is parking on the premises and access to laundry facilities etc. from out house there is 3 minute walk to the town swimming pool, 3 minutes down to the harbor an just about 1 minute to the boardwalk path that runs the beautiful coast of our fjord, with lots of interesting things to see and photograph.
