The staff was not so great

Very beautiful house and room

Stayed in July 2025

Staff was rigid and un social

Nice bed,

Because we were below ground, there was more noise at first than we expected. Laughter carried too well, but eventually died down.

Our room was below ground, with a shared shower and toilet. The sharing of facilities worked well, and our bed was very comfortable. The history of the guesthouse was prominently shown in the dining room, and we had a pleasant breakfast (to order).

Great staff that was flexible with our arriving time. Beautiful venue. Delicious pizza.

Poor soundproofing and very old

Nice location and good beds

Instructions could be a little clearer how to pick up keys to get into the house for late arrivals. But this information was actually provided, so I´m just putting this here to fill the box with something!

The house is a living museum and we loved the old charm classic interiors. Bed mattresses are great as are pillows - and we know our pillows! The rooms do not have separate bathrooms but common ones but this is quite acceptable since usually one of them is available and they are very spacious, clean and well equipped.

There was no host. We were checked in by a guy passing by on a fork lift and we never saw any staff again. The upper level rooms and bathrooms were nice and clean with pretty views only on the water side, but Breakfast was non-existent, not served in the beautiful dining room… instead we went down to a dark lower level and found sour milk and other tired items in a small refrigerator. We just left and ate elsewhere.

Love the building, views, photos of family generations.

Very clean. Bed matress and pillows excellent. Very spacious, well equipped and clean common bathrooms (was our main concern before stay and thus really exceeded expectations). We did not buy breakfast but it looked ok.

Stayed in August 2024

We would have liked either thicker or more pillows. The amenities were very basic, but ok for the price

Einarshúsið is pleasing to the eye with a rich history. A bit eerie, but enjoyably so. The shared bathrooms were clean and well kept, and there were a few of them, so there was never a wait. The staff was friendly. The restaurant serves good pizza into the evening and has a varied selection of beverages. We would stay here again.

Cozy accommodation and very friendly staff. Value for money and you get what you pay for.

We liked especially the old history of the hotel and the location; right down at the harbor in Bolungarvík where the view is so beautiful.

As it's an old guesthouse, it can be a bit loud, but not unmanageable. Breakfast was fine, but expensive and not overall worth it. Everything else was good.

An old guesthouse in a gorgeous little fjord in the Westfjords of Iceland. This was a perfect place for our family of 7 to spend a couple of days as a base while exploring all the beauty that the Westfjords has to offer. Rooms were fairly spacious, and the shared bathrooms were nice and well kept. Overall a great little stay.

Nothing

Quirky guesthouse that very unique to Iceland. Pizza was good. Eclectic decor.

I can think of nothing.

It was easy to find. Lovely staff in the house. And quiet in the evening.

We got a terrific room for free in an old style house. The historic wooden floors are nice but a little noisy.

Unfortunately.. The basement room although beautiful was my daughters least enjoyable room of our entire Iceland trip. And we are not fussy! They Did not like the smell or the downstairs bathroom. Returant: we ordered Pizza dinner our first night, the place was full since the only decent place in this quaint town and the good reviews. Because of under staff food never came out. managed to watch the whole England vs Netherlands semi final on a big screen down stairs in the basement.. and still no dinner. Finally, and with a full apologies from young and very friendly staff , had a tasty Chicken Pizza ( but the one with sweet potatoes wasn't - they were not cooked.. ) So my conclusion; Corner suite or any other on the top floor - definitely. Basement although beautiful, probably not

Ok this is going to be a mixed review! We, a family of 5 booked for 2 nights for the sake of sailing to Hornstrandir day tour , which was cancelled due to bad weather. Booked the corner suite + the basement room for my 18&15 ages girls. As all reviews, this place was extraordinary unique - loved the décor, the antiques; large room.Beds were extremely comfy, 2 clean shared bathrooms on the floor. Probably my favourite room out of a 14 night stay!!! Has a refrigerator down stairs for the use of guests; huge TV screen!! Watched the House of the Dragon episodes I've missed.. and the euro semis!!! Very friendly young staff!!!

The location is really convenient if you are visiting this area. We wanted to see Isafjörður and this guesthouse was the most affordable in the area and is only a 10 minutes drive from Isafjörður. We were cozy and the place is lovely. It was quiet and calm. We did not regret our choice!

A bit loud from the restaurant downstairs in evening but it closed at reasonable town and was silent rest of night

Very cozy right near isafjordur perfect for a night stopover, very cute town

Friendly staff, good breakfast, great dinner at the restaurant.

Stayed in June 2024

They offer breakfast, but unlike the carefully planned dinner menu, there wasn't anything of note and no hot items. It was cold cuts like bologna, a slice of cheese, a hard-boiled egg, and bread. We opted to start our morning camp style the next day instead. Rooms run small, the queen bed uses up most of the floorplan. Size isn't terrible but something to keep in mind if you have more than one suitcase. The radiators are old, room 3 needs a tune-up since the control knob spins in place, making it hard to get any heat out.

Nice proximity to the harbor and other hikes or scenic drives. The dinner menu is good and they offer gluten-free pizza. There is a sink in the room, but it was rare that both restrooms were busy given the small number of rooms. No noise issues; the main dining area clears out by 21:00 or 22:00. The staff were friendly.

Nothing springs to mind

Eclectic sort of place. We had the basement all to ourselves. Had the biggest pizza ever.

Stayed in June 2024

All the rooms are on the second floor. The house is old, so the stairs are steep.

Quietness

Stayed in May 2024

No facilities aside from the room and breakfast area.

Charming frontier type property in a great location whilst touring the WestFjords. Good breakfast, clean facility with a character.

Stayed in September 2023

We were hoping to have dinner at the property but it wasn’t offered which was disappointing. The breakfast was bacon and eggs, toast. An alternate cereal and fruit etc. would be appropriate.

The old property has lots of history. The rooms are decorated nicely. The host was helpful on where to eat in the neighbouring big town.
