Comfortable and stylish hotel stay in pretty little Stykkisholmur
Pros:

Lives up to the hotel status most compared to the other “hotels” we stayed in Iceland on this trip, which is nice. Stylish, clean, comfortable room and shower. Friendly staff. Convenient location and great views, considering it’s not exactly near the harbour.

Cons:

None
