The ambiance and look of the hotel
The breakfast was excellent however, I would suggest to move the toaster on another table away of the buffet because, it was very crowded.
Excellent property. We love the building and the history related with this hotel. Excellent restaurant Dir dinner and the breakfast was the best of our trip

Very basic set up. Understandable being in countryside of Iceland however overall experience doesn’t meet the value. Part of this hotel is a small museum focus on its history story which was lovely.
This is a beautiful hotel on the water in a beautiful fjord. The room was lovely and the staff were very helpful. We ate at the restaurant at the hotel as well as the two in the community - everything was delicious. We used this as a base to explore the other east fjords. The trails were very good. We loved the quiet relaxed atmosphere of the area.
We've stayed twice at the Fosshotel Eastfjords. It's a great place to stay for its beauty and access to the rest of the area. The staff is always very friendly and we love the location.
Invited upon checkin to see the Museum regarding French fishing history housed in the building..was excellent! Room facing the fjord had small deck with chairs, was lovely to have a chance to sit right by water. Bed, bathroom, all excellent. Parking very near door. Did not have breakfast, price seemed high. Front desk not manned it a.m., supposed to find staff in dining area in another building to give key, no one there, finally knocked on back door to be able to hand key over. No problem really tho. A very nice place to spend our evening.
This was my favorite hotel of my ring road trip simply due to the balcony overlooking the fjord. I spent hours just sitting, sipping coffee, and watching the ducks/ducklings. Such a relaxing location and the room was a good size. I really miss this hotel the most out of my whole trip. Also, Tatyana at check in has such a bubbly personality that it was great to see someone who really enjoys what they are doing and is an extremely welcoming person. 10/10 will be back!
We reached late but the receptionist was quick to help with the check in. Room size was small (we had requested a 3 person room). Bathroom was also small. Certainly expensive for the price that we paid but thankfully the breakfast was included in the price.
