호텔 레이캬네스

There is a lot of renovation going on at Reykjanes, but mostly that's on the exterior and doesn't affect the interior or your comfort in anyway. Don't let the exterior view of the building put you off. The place has an interesting history and they're building for the future. The small peninsula on which the hotel is located is interesting in itself with a salt factory, "hot beach", and of course the large hot pool. The setting and the views are pure Westfjords. It's a breathtaking one hour....or three hour drive to Isafjordur. Your choice. The restaurant entrees at Reykjanes are somewhat overpriced. Maybe the sandwiches or lighter fare are better choices, but breakfast is great and included, including smoked salmon and unique home-baked sweet breads. Besides the pool, there is an old-school (figuratively and literally) gym that has everything you need. Finally, it was here that I was treated to my first ever view of the northern lights. I have no words for it. All of us were hooting and hollering and invoking the deity. I'll come back here. Sorry I can't add photos. The site can't accommodate the size of my files.

beautiful sea side natural hot spring pool and Mountain View.

Hotel is converted boarding school with communal bathrooms and showers (fairly old). Facility is undergoing renovation including installation of en suite bathrooms which will be a major improvement. Proprietor and staff extraordinarily friendly and knowledgeable about local area. Great advice for day trips and sightseeing. This will be an all-round great place when renovations are complete.

Super

Das Hotel liegt ziemlich abgelegen in den westlichen Fjords. Das Hotelpersonal war super nett und hat sich auch sehr bemüht, auch die Räumlichkeiten waren vollkommen in Ordnung. Besonders Highlight des Aufenthaltes war der riesige Außenpool, der in dieser wunderschönen Gegend gerne genutzt wird.
