Very good

We stayed in many hotels along the circle but Vest Mar was the best of all !
My family was very impressed with the location and nicely done room arrangements with dining table. The kitchen had all necessary plates and dishes. We all agreed if we re-visit Iceland Vest Mar will be the only hotel we need to book for the duration of stay.

The Vestmar has nice rooms overlooking a working harbor, not “breathtaking ocean views” as advertised. Large, clean, updated rooms are on the second floor. They say they offer “unparalleled service,” but be prepared to carry your suitcases up the stairs.
In room coffee is good and they give you some chocolate. This is a very nice hotel but they should alert guests that there is no elevator and handicapped stay isn’t possible.

Check in was simple and we were very impressed with how big the rooms were and how nice they were. Check in was super simple.
This is a standard design hotel room that was very large and clean. No cooking facilities. Restaurant on premises but no breakfast. Hotel owner was available and helpful. I had made a booking error and they fixed it. Recommended.
What a delightful place to stay! We had a large room with huge bed overlooking the fishing docks and bay. If we had a room on the other side of the hotel, we would have seen mountains and the Baejarfoss waterfall. The room had a large TV, loveseat, chair, desk, and room for extra storage. The bathroom was well equipped. This is a great place to stay for a few days if exploring the Snaefellsnes peninsula (comfort, food, gas, grocery, excursions). We ate dinner in the restaurant below, and this was a fantastic dinner. Check-in was literally arriving, going to the room, and entering the given code. Super easy. Highly recommend staying at VestMar!

The town is a great stopover during a road trip, though its food options are limited and everything closes on the earlier side, so check hours before you go. Property was nice, staff was friendly, room was big and clean. Restaurant in the lobby was great for relaxing after a long day with a glass of wine and an appetizer. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Nice quite place, was a little unsure if the room was for us at first as it looked like someone had just stayed before us with trash and towels. It was a great place to stay for the night and would stay again.

An inn by the sea
An inn located by the sea, you can check in by yourself with a password sent to you. The guest rooms are on the second floor, and the restaurant is on the ground floor, so it is very convenient for food and accommodation.

Great apartment
A very spacious and well equipped apartment in a nice location. There was plenty of room for four people and the kitchenette was excellent.
A really good space to relax and explore the local area from, would happily stay again.
