Hotel Breidavik

The owner, Birna, is who really makes this place shine. She is very funny, personable, and extremely kind. The world is not worthy of her. The hotel itself is a great place to stay near the Látrabjarg cliffs. Our room was spacious, quiet, and clean. Our bed was large and very comfortable. We slept great! Woke up to some stunning views near the hotel. A cell tower was recently installed near the hotel, so you can get service even though you’re away from a lot of tourist hot spots. They also recently upgraded the Wi-Fi in the hotel and it works great. This hotel is a 10/10.

A restaurant in the middle of nowhere really came in handy. The service is very nice, the food is especially tasty, the mushroom soup and the apple pie dessert (dessert top). very reasonable prices, free croutons on the table, free coffee and tea. great satisfaction.

Great location along the route to the Látrabjarg cliffs. Makes a good stop for lunch or dinner. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but they have a nice big dining room with a view and the food was very good.

Very nice position, in front of the sea. The kitchen is really nice and well equipped. The toilets and showers however are in a separate building which is not really clean or in a good shape.

Overall it’s a nice place to stay close to the cliffs. We stayed in a bedroom for 3 with a private bathroom. The room had all the essential stuff together with the kettle and a tea/coffee set for a warm drink. The beds were one of the comfiest we ever slept in, the room was nice and warm and had a nice sunset view. The bathroom on the other hand was really cold, but with the hot shower. ||We ate the dinner at the restaurant - do not hesitate to ask for a vegetarian meals, we got delicious beetroot patty with mashed potatoes and portion of vegetables. Usual continental breakfast with one of the best freshly baked breads we ever tasted - it was still warm and perfect even with only butter.||Do not expect any luxuries, it’s an older place but has its charm. And remember to walk to the beach, it’s beautiful!

I went just before the high season started to visit the Latrabjarg bird cliffs. Part of the road to the hotel and then to the cliffs is unpaved and potholed. But i managed with a 2WD.|My room with private bath was in one of the trailers lined up outside the main hotel. It worked out well for my bird watching: the two large windows in the room opened on a vast grassy field with a variety of birds passing by . Whenever a bird showed up I opened a window and photographed it. |The coffee/tea set up in the room was good.|Buffet breakfast was quite good. I cannot say the same for dinner options: many items on the menu were missing and what I tried wasn't up to par. I assume it was due to my visiting time being before the high season.

I camped here for a night in a campervan. Facilities are great : heated bathrooms, hot showers, washing machine, drying rack, and fully stocked indoor kitchen. You can walk to the beach. The hotel bar is available to visit as well. The owner Birna is so friendly and proud of her place.

we booked an economy quad, didn't know what economy meant. it means a room with 4 mattresses, there's a per person fee for pillow, comforter and towels. there are 3 beds in the immediate room. through another door, at first i thought it was a closet, is another room with the 4th bed. the setup is a little odd, but with ample room to move about. we were lucky in that once we paid for the extra fee, we were given a triple and a double. both rooms had a small table, two chairs, instant coffee and tea, a kettle and cups. the double had a king bed, two night stands, a sectional sofa, and a closet.||the shared bathroom on the first floor is much used, thus supply sometimes run low or out as in the case of paper towel (thankfully not toilet paper!). There are two bathrooms, but one of them was always locked. There are also campers onsite who presumably use these bathrooms. There's a shower room with 5 or 6 stalls. The water pressure was very weak, water was basically just dripping.||the surrounding is stunning. from the hotel, it's a short walk to the golden beach. We went for our walk during high tide. it was mesmerizing watching the waves roll in, with cliffs on both sides in view. we even caught sight of a seal for a brief moment. ||it's a shame the look of the property isn't commensurate with it's surrounding. the hotel shows its age. the restaurant looks to be an addition, and doesn't complement the hotel. there's a row of rooms in a trailer by the side of the hotel. Campers are accommodated in front of the hotel, most of them are out in the open.||breakfast is traditional and satisfying. we thought the food at the restaurant was excellent.||the hotel recommends seeing puffins early morning and after 7pm. since this didn't work for us, we went around 10. we thoroughly enjoyed the puffins. we saw the most puffins along the marked path. we walked past the trail along the cliff. we enjoyed it, but saw fewer puffins.||final comment pertains to tour groups. there was one particular obnoxious German who was always at the top of his voice wherever he might be, including in front of guestrooms before 8am. presumably a room in the trailer is quieter, although wifi might be lacking. it is only available by the bar/lounge, and not 24/7
