    The location near the centre of town is terrific. Easy walking distance to the port and some great restaurants. The property is very comfortable and has everything you need - it was great to use the washing machine and dryer after several days...

    Everything. The location, the key arrangements but most importantly the proper try itself was stunning. A wonderful quirky house. Watch the staircase but just wow. We loved it.

    The place was stunning. Evrything was clean, comfy and Railis gave us a warm welcome. Well equiped with a washing machine and dryer and nearby the whale watching spots. We felt immediately like home.

    I didn't expect this house to be a two-story villa, especially given the affordable price. The area of this house is super large. The host is friendly as well, allowing flexible check-in and check-out time.

    Beautiful location in central Husavik. Sunset was spectacular. Very well equipped and comfortable place to stay. One of the nicest we've ever stayed in. Very central location.

Located in a historic house in central Húsavík, close to all major services. Stay at Borgarhóll in Húsavík, a historic building from 1895. Built by Dr. Jón Sigurðsson, it once housed Húsavík's first drugstore. Known as Læknishús, Grímshús, and Písa (due to its leaning chimney), it's been called Borgarhóll since 1905, likely after an old sod farm. The site is believed to be where Svavarsson from Sweden built Iceland's first house.
Centrally located, just steps away from the harbor and a variety of restaurants. GeoSea is a short 5-minute drive or a beautiful 30-minute walk to the impressive sea baths.
