One night sleep near a volcano

One quick overnight stay. Staff was very accommodating for our early arrival. Rooms were clean, quiet and comfortable. Unfortunately, we had to leave early for the ferry departure and weren't able to enjoy the complimentary breakfast.

This simple guesthouse was in a perfect location and was very clean and safe. We wanted extra pillows and they were brought to us. I appreciated having a couch to sit on, it's nice to have the extra seating area. Also appreciated the fridge in the hallway.

William, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The breakfast was extremely minimal. The common areas such as hallways were very old and seemed dirty, very average/below average for the cost.

Knud, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Check-in was super easy and parking was available right out front. During checkout, reception went out of her way to get us some information. We thoroughly enjoyed our sleep in the comfortable beds and there was a full-sized fridge in the hallway; convenient for the grocery stores a walking distance away.

10/10 Exceptional

Property is near the harbor, convenient walking access to shops, restaurants and tours.( There is no elevator for those with difficulty on stairs) The staff were all lovely and helpful.
MaryAnn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Guesthouse Hamar is in a great location, only a few blocks from the ferry (leave your car on the mainland if you don’t really need to drive on Westmann Island). The room was a lot bigger than I thought. Shower was a little tight, but ok. Breakfast was included which was good as well. Walls are a bit thin, but there wasn’t anyone up late, so it didn’t bother us at night. Very happy with this 1 night stay.
