Fosshotel Westfjords
About this stay
Arriving at the Fosshotel Westfjords places you directly on the coast of Patreksfjörður, a quiet fishing village that serves as a gateway to the southern Westfjords. The hotel, opened in 2013, offers a contemporary base for exploring the region. Evenings here revolve around the à la carte restaurant and its bar, a welcome amenity after a day of driving or hiking. The daily breakfast buffet ensures a solid start to any itinerary. Rooms are designed with a minimalist aesthetic and modern furnishings, providing a comfortable and functional space. Blackout curtains are a thoughtful touch for summer nights, and the option of mountain or fjord views adds to the appeal. Wi-Fi access is available throughout the property, and staff can assist with arranging local tours.

Our take
Fosshotel Westfjords is my pick in Patreksfjörður for travellers who want a full-service hotel at the end of a long Westfjords drive: an à la carte restaurant with a bar, a daily breakfast buffet, and rooms with blackout curtains for the bright summer nights. The minimalist design will feel plain to anyone hoping for a traditional guesthouse. From this coastal base, Látrabjarg, Rauðisandur and Dynjandi all make good day trips.
Why we love it
- Coastal location in Patreksfjörður
- Modern design and comfortable rooms
- On-site à la carte restaurant and bar
- Views of mountains or the fjord from rooms
