Hotel Djupavik | Best places to stay in Iceland
"This fjordside guesthouse has a fascinating history: it was once a lodging house for women who worked at the local herring factory, but since 1985 it’s been repurposed as a rustic, traditional hotel filled with memorabilia of the town’s maritime history. There are eight rooms, all on the first floor, simply decorated with Icelandic textiles, wooden furniture and fun decorative details (like shelves made from old herring crates). There are also a couple of smaller cottages to rent. Breakfast and dinner is served communally in the little dining room. Guided tours of the ruined herring factory and the nearby craft museum can be arranged. It also makes a convenient gateway for onward explorations of the remote Westfjords. " - Oliver Berry
