The communal area was lacking seats. No bed linen included, but sleeping bags can be used.

Right in the center of town. Spacious communal area. Flexible check in times, even quite late. Free parking right across the street. Everything was clean. Lots of gas canisters left by other travellers.

I did not know in advance how many beds my shared room would have. The shower drain had some issues draining and water got out of the shower (repeatedly).

Great equiped kitchen, long shared table to dine together, shared food shelf, not many people. Location.

The common space has a huge window and everyone in the kitchen is on display. The curtains are roll-down ones, so that obstructs the view completely. Maybe just basic translucent curtains might make it cosier. Just a suggestion, no big deal. Also I did not notice in the email confirmation, that sleeping bag is needed, so I needed to rent a duvet for a fee, also not a big deal, but better to be aware!

Very good location, not too big hostel in size, convenient luggage storage at the hostel. Big common space, all equipment needed for cooking.

Read fine print about extra fee for doona - not excessive but missed in our booking

Very central to town, warm, clean, large common area - we were only ones staying there so very peaceful and quiet!

Everything was generally good overall. There is the usual noise/disturbance from other guests staying up late and talking loudly, but you can just go tell them to shut up after a certain time. The bathroom water taps do not fully close, so beware you can hear trickling water all night, so just go out and close them properly.

Checking in way smooth and easy. Hostel was clean and quiet. When I stayed, there were very few guests there. The kitchen was well equipped, dining area was spacious. There was also a rack for us to share/donate extra food so it did not go to waste, which was an excellent idea.

Pick up of keys 500m away. You need your own sleeping bag.

Clean, roomy, and warm.

You need to walk 5-10 min to the hotel to check in - there are no sheets included in thr price. I used my sleeping bag woth to avoid this fee, so it was not a big problem for me. - bathrooms can be buzy because there are only 2 of them.

Very nice personnel at the check in + Location is good + Everything was clean + There is a common room with couches + Kitchen facilities were clean, too

Had to chase up reception and the keys at another location Isafjordur Hotel.

Comfortable beds. Warm and cozy.

A minor inconvenience was that you needed to leave the building and link up at the hotel to speak with staff. I still think it worked well.

Location was ideal, the amenities excellent.

There is very little to no sound proofing, so as some guests next door were being loud, we couldnt help but be woken up by it.

The location was great and we were comfortable in our twin room. Staff at the hotel check in were super nice and helpful.

What is the tv for when theres no channels?

Ha soggiornato nel mese di settembre 2023

everything as expected; It would have been good to have a clothes horse or sth similar to dry the wet and dirty clothes. Maybe there is, and I couldn't find it?

24/7 reception at Ísafjörður Hotel, check-in/check-out very easy, very friendly and helpful staff, well-equipped kitchen, stable WiFi, 2 bathrooms, 2 out of 3 nights I had the room for myself as they didn't place guests together as long as there were free beds. As the other guests were hikers, too, there were no issues with noise, etc. As with other isolated places with great nature, you'll meet many interesting people. Ísafjörður is rather a sleepy town, but nicely located and perfect to come to rest and to experience authentic Iceland. The surroundings are very exciting and apt for loads of outdoor activities. Especially Hornstrandir is very wild and untamed. Greenland feels close, too (2 days on a sailing boat).

First time staying in a hostel... So I don't know what is normal. But, zero quality. Stove top needs BETTER operating instructions.

Very good location because you could walk to restaurants, gas station and shopping. Plus it had a lovely view

Small double room, nice and clean common area and kitchen. Recommended

Wasn’t that easy to find out where to check in. Initially was told we could check in early but that was not the case. No problem as the town is adorable and plenty to do.

Great location and clean bathrooms. Expensive like all of Iceland but less expensive than a hotel.

I didn’t notice anything that needed improvement.

I really liked the location of the property, as well as the way the living area was set up. It allowed for a sense of community.

(1) The cracked window glass in Room 2 was allocated to us. For safety issues we rejected it and was given another room without question. (2) the duplicate key to the main door had difficulties opening. This was fixed immediately by the staff.

Within walking distance to restaurants, cafes and supermarkets.

Hard to reach and very few power outlets in the room. Also if you don't have your own blanket, it's quite a lot extra to rent one. With one bathroom I imagine it can get quite crowded, luckily we were good with timing.

Super friendly staff and a clean hostel with a well equipped kitchen and comfy beds. We felt safe and the location was great, could even park our car right under our window for free.

Bedsheets aren't included in the price. Bring a warm coat if you don't want to pay extra for sheets.

The beds were comfortable, there was a kitchen with appliances to cook breakfast/lunch/dinner. It is located well as I found the hostel without too much hassle.
