    Maybe a bit expensive. Also, in September, all the birds are gone from the cliffs.

    The innkeeper is extremely friendly. We discussed about living in Iceland, he told us the history of the place, his childhood in this region, had many wonderful stories to share. He even passed a playlist of songs in our la guage. The place is old school, in a very pleasant manner. It's like entering a photograph of a recent past. There are lots of vintage objects and pictures everywhere. Nothing here is modern, and it's perfect like it is. We had a good meal in the evening (even though we did not book it, and came in late) and a nice buffet for breakfast. The room was very large, with a salon and a table, like a suite. Also it's one of the closest places to stay to observe the cliffs of Latrabjarg.

    Amazing hospitality and accommodation! The room was clean and cozy, and the staff was more than welcoming to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The location to the hotel will lead you on a scenic drive and it’s very close to scenic viewpoints like Latrabjarg cliffs. Would definitely come back again.

    Our main window faced the parking and the reception - privacy issue - as people kept walking past.

    Wonderful host, charming friendly and welcoming - that is the best draw to this lovely guesthouse. Good simple breakfast in a quaint dining room filled with photos from the past. Perfectly done soft boiled eggs and nice baked goods. Dinner smelled lovely, but we were full so couldn’t try.

    The dinner price seemed a bit overpriced but then I don't know much about Iceland hotel's dinner charge. So maybe, not

    Be prepared to drive 40 more minutes from the hotel to the cliffs to see the puffins. On the plus side it breaks up the drive to this remote location.

    Beautiful clean room. Delicious breakfast and dinner. Owner has a lot of local knowledge and fun to talk to. Beautiful landscape. Remote location, but the puffin cliffs and museums are worth the effort. Peaceful place.

    I really enjoyed my stay here. Smaller hotel and good sized single room for a solo traveler. Friendly staff/owner that made me feel welcome. I wish I could have stayed longer and would definitely return if I find myself in the same area again. Breakfast was very nice for a great start of a new day exploring the area.

    We had a blackout : no electricity and no internet in the evening till next day early morning 8:00am. Personally feeling, it is a bit overpriced.

    The mattress is amazing comfortable. Nice view to the beach and also can really enjoy the quiet. 10 mins walking distance to the nice sand beach. The owner and staff are very friendly and it is a nice cozy place to chill out.

    I loved everything, if I HAD to pick one item I would say to have a better table salt. Yup, that's how good the stay was- the only thing I can recommend is to improve the salt LOL

    The location is lovely- remote and peaceful but close to the cliffs and other pretty areas. It's a really special spot, as you have the mountains to one side, and the beach within eyesight (about a 10 minute walk away). The thing that makes this spot very special is the owner and staff. He is very caring, takes his time in assisting each person, is very willing to share and recommend experiences, he truly puts a lot of effort into making sure your stay is enjoyable. It's a small team- seemed like only 3 people do everything there, but they do it really well. As a side bonus- they have a great tea selection :) We will be coming back- I highly recommend it!

    Ideal place to travel around Latrabjark and the southern part of the West Fjords. Not only the puffins, but also the whole landscape, the waterfalls and the beaches are worth a visit. Very friendly host and good dinner. Room was spacious and clean. We have stayed there several times and will surely come back.

    Well, it was windy here, but you can't control the wind!!! :-)

    The hotel Latrabjarg was exceptional in every way. Karl is such a kind host. He greeted us when we arrived and offered a dinner of the evening (for an additional price). The menu looked great but we were excited to go to the bird cliffs so we declined. The hotel is about a 30 minute drive to the bird cliffs. We did see numerous birds including puffins!! The breakfast the next morning was a wonderful spread of cold foods (breads, cereals, cheese, fruit etc) , including homemade museli by Karl's wife and even a plant based milk (almond) for me. Everything was just wonderful and I highly recommend staying here.
