Our hotel in Eskifjörður has deep roots in the community as it used to be a bank and we have our own deity in mountain form of Hólmatindur watching over us and keeps us humble.
The rooms are fitted with modern appliances and a quality fitted mattress for the travelers rest and recovery.
Our team here at the hotel is a mixed bag of deep rooted locals, Icelanders, some seasonal workers, as well as people who are part of the project in other and very important ways.
