Hotel Isafjordur - Horn

This is a VERY VERY basic hotel. Almost like a dorm room. One cheap plastic chair and small table. Nowhere to sit but on your bed. Maybe a step up from a hostel (although I’ve never been to one). The hotel does not have a front desk. You have to walk to the next block to another hotel to register and you also have to go to that other hotel for breakfast. Parking is poor. There were no spots to park behind the hotel when we got there (only maybe enough for 8 cars) so had to park 2-3 blocks away. The breakfast was very good. The door was locked to the building, so you had a code to get in which makes you feel very secure. The beds were comfortable, the shower decent, and it was clean. If you do NOT have your room cleaned, they give you a free drink at the other hotel which is good incentive. Also, there is a towel warmer so that made it easy to wash out some clothes and dry them. Despite the negatives, it was very quiet and I slept well. There are so few options in this town that this is basically what you get. I think I was just a bit shocked when I walked in and felt like I was in college again….

Excellent location, great room, comfy bed. Close to restaurants and shops. Only thing is check in is at another hotel down the street. Hotel room was very clean, and check-in clerk was very helpful. No issues whatsoever! Would stay again for sure! :) Also, the elevator is pretty cool - I think it's a lift. You operate it by pressing and holding the floor you want to be raised to. I thought I was cool, I don't know. lol

Unique hotel in the middle of Isafjordur. It almost looked like a former hostel that had been renovated into a hotel. We had a large charming room with mountain and water views. The bathroom was old fashioned but spacious. Very quiet property, comfortable bed, decent curtains (although the room could have stood to be darker at night). Only two quibbles—the scary elevator was really intimidating, and both check-in and breakfast were down the street. This mattered a bit, as it was very windy and rainy when we arrived and on the following morning. That said, it was a pleasant stay. I’d probably book it again.

We had to check in at a sister hotel, a block from the facility we were staying . The facility we stayed at was unattended. Required a code to enter our hotel. Parking was very limited. Our room was spacious. Bathroom quite small. In the morning, we walked a block to have breakfast at the sister hotel.

Isafjordur is a small town, and it seems that most tourists visit by cruise ship. When doing research, there weren't many hotel options, and I tried to choose the best one based on reviews. Check-in is tricky as you have to go to a different hotel a few blocks away to get your key, then return to this location. The hotel was modern and clean, and breakfast is offered in the other hotel where you check in (breakfast was very good!). The issues I had were mostly with my room. There were items left from the last guest, which indicated the room hadn't been cleaned very well. And the shower drain was clogged, so water spilled out onto the floor after one or two minutes. The stay here was ok, but there is room for improvement.
