2-minute walk to the Icelandic Sea Monster Museum

About this stay

The village of Bíldudalur wraps around a small harbour on Arnarfjörður, and this B&B sits within it rather than on its outskirts, close enough to the Icelandic Sea Monster Museum to reach it on foot in two minutes. Rooms are brightly decorated with mountain or fjord views, bed linen, towels and bathrobes included, though bathrooms stay shared across the property rather than private per room. Breakfast is served each morning in the dining room, and a communal TV lounge gives guests somewhere to gather once the day's driving along Route 60 is done. Outdoor sun loungers sit outside for anyone wanting to unwind rather than head straight indoors. Hiking is listed among the property's activities, and Bíldudalur Golf Course is 1.7 km away for a low-key afternoon. Being family-owned shows in the smaller scale of the place, closer to a village guesthouse than a hotel, which suits the fishing village around it.

  • Village centre location
  • Breakfast included
  • Communal TV lounge
  • Mountain or fjord views

Our take

This suits travellers who want a village base within walking distance of what little there is to see in Bíldudalur, rather than an isolated countryside stay. Families and couples on a two-person trip both rate the location well, and the included breakfast and communal lounge make it an easy stop between longer legs of a West Fjords loop. Travellers wanting private bathrooms or resort-style amenities should look elsewhere, since this stays a modest village B&B by design.

  • ✓Walk to the Icelandic Sea Monster Museum on arrival, it is two minutes from the door
  • ✓Confirm shared bathroom arrangements before booking if travelling with others outside your group
  • ✓Use the outdoor sun loungers on a clear evening rather than the indoor lounge, the fjord view is worth it

Why we love it

  • Two-minute walk to the Sea Monster Museum
  • Breakfast served each morning
  • Mountain and fjord views from brightly decorated rooms
  • Outdoor sun loungers for unwinding
Why guests love it

For a family, the strongest argument here is the location: the Icelandic Sea Monster Museum is a two-minute walk away, so children have something to look forward to without getting back in the car after a long drive on Route 60. Breakfast is served each morning, bed linen, towels and bathrobes are included, and the communal TV lounge gives everyone some space in the evening. Bathrooms are shared, so I would book it for a short stop rather than a long stay.
