Arnarstapi Hotel

Wonderful stay!

We love the location. A good place to slow down a bit with our road trip. Stroll around the area and do some activities as well. Our only disappointment was that there were dead flies in our room when we check in. Housekeeping might have missed it?

This hotel is right on the ocean and a great walkway with fantastic sights. There is a restaurant attached and a few others across the street (but might not be open). Advice: Bring food/snacks with you because of limited shops and restaurants. The hotel looks like container pods. Ours had four separate rooms. Our room was spacious and comfortable. The shower is heated via solar, so there is limited hot water. The wifi was great as was TV reception. The bed was basic with one pillow each. No washcloths. This was a perfectly adequate and comfortable place to stay for one night.

The staff was so friendly and welcoming. We were upgraded to a water view room and the restaurant was very good. The area is beautiful with nice hikes right out of our door. Went to the nature reserve and did a cave tour as well. Really interesting and fun. The only downside for us was the tour buses that arrived each day which made everything busy and crowded. When the buses left by late afternoon, it was peaceful and more enjoyable.
