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.

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was a good size, with very comfortable beds and a nice TV. The bathroom itself was spacious, although the sink was surprisingly small and not very practical. The hotel has only two floors and does not have an elevator, so keep that in mind if you have heavy luggage or mobility concerns. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore the area. One of the highlights was the restaurant downstairs, which serves the best espresso in town. Overall, it’s a comfortable and well-located hotel that we would recommend.

Prices in Iceland are high. This was comparable. Nicely appointed. Clean and comfortable room. Liked the kitchenette. Plates and settings. Microwave and refrigerator. Pictures did not represent the room. Nicer! Restaurant was very good! Family enjoyed the food- prices again are high in Iceland but well thought out ingredients and taste. Comparable pricing. Big drink selection. Caution. No elevator. 3 flights of stairs.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.
