Alway nice to visit Stykkisholmur and we will be back one day and stay at your hotel!
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and service at the restaurant was fine

Cons:

The menu at the restaurant was not interesting, it sadly missed local seafood and there was no Icelandic lamb. Not having any service at lunch time, not even a coffee was disappointing.

Angenehmer Kurzaufenthalt
Pros:

Das Hotel ist gut gelegen, alles ist sauber und das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Der Blick auf die extravagante Kirche vom Speisesaal ist perfekt. Das Frühstück Buffet ist reichlich und von guter Qualität. Das Gleich gilt für das Abendessen - die Jakobsmuscheln und der Lachs waren ausgezeichnet.

Cons:

Leider waren auch um 7:00h die warmen Frühstücksspeisen schon kalt
