"This was a very cozy and relatively private igloo. We chose it for clear view should there have been northern lights. There were none during our stay but it was still a great stop. Lovely expansive view. I wasn't expecting it to be so close to the main road with relatively bright lighting as a result. The common area was nice and clean with adequate bathrooms for the number of people during the times we came to the space."

Top Vesturhopsholar Hotel Reviews

Hótel Hvítserkur

8/10 Good

"Wonderful Staff, delicious dinner, clean spacious room, great view…the outside of the building can use some tlc."

North West Restaurant & Guesthouse

8/10 Good

"The property is clean, staff was helpful and the dining area was busy, lots of people eating good food. Now the reason I gave 4 stars is because this is a truck stop, literally drove right by the place because it does not look like a hotel. The noise from the trucks and the highway was alot until after 10pm. Also the room was cool when we got in so turned the heat up and it never got warmer. The bathroom is tiny! When you shower nothing in the bathroom comes out dry, even with the shower curtain nothing was safe. Expedia has it advertised as Breakfast for a fee, but after October the breakfast is not offered at all. Overall, if all you need is a cheap room,clean bed, shower, and convienent location, literally 50feet off the highway, this place really is great."

Sauðá Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"We were so looking forward to this accomodation with the view straight to the ocean, and a hope for some Northern Lights, but our day's plans were changed due to weather and we didn't arrive until 9pm on a wet and crazy windy evening. It was such a cozy space to warm up in, and we were happy to arrive finally. The kitchenette was handy, the water was hot, and beds comfortable."

Cozy Cottage on Hillside with Breathtaking Mountain Views, 3 mins from Route 1

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful little cottage, "cozy" and peaceful. The initial info regarding check in was a bit confusing, however Peter met us to check in and gave us great hints regarding places to go and things to see....we could not do everything he suggested and we never would have seen seals playing just a few feet offshore, if he did not tell us a place to see them. The hosts checked in during our stay to make sure everything was ok...great hosts....great place."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Vesturhopsholar?

The best area to stay in Vesturhopsholar is directly within the small cluster of accommodations near the Hvítserkur rock formation, as this is the primary point of interest in the region.

This area is a remote and tranquil part of Northwestern Iceland, primarily known for its natural beauty. The accommodations here are typically guesthouses or farm stays, offering a peaceful retreat with direct views of the coastline and the iconic Hvítserkur basalt stack. You'll find yourself surrounded by the rugged Icelandic landscape, with the ocean just a short walk away.

Couples seeking a romantic and secluded getaway will find this area particularly appealing. The emphasis here is on disconnecting and enjoying nature, with opportunities for quiet coastal walks and observing the local wildlife, particularly seals. The lack of light pollution also makes it an excellent spot for stargazing and, during the right season, viewing the Northern Lights right from your accommodation.

For those interested in photography, staying in Vesturhopsholar offers unparalleled access to Hvítserkur at different times of day, allowing for capturing the rock in various lighting conditions without needing to travel far.

When is the best time to go to Vesturhopsholar?

The best time to go to Vesturhopsholar is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is mildest and daylight hours are longest.

This period is ideal for experiencing the region's natural beauty and wildlife. You'll find the roads more accessible, making it easier to explore attractions like the Hvítserkur rock formation and the nearby seal colonies at Illugastaðir. The landscape is lush, and the opportunities for hiking and photography are abundant.

Couples looking for a romantic escape will appreciate the extended daylight, which allows for long, scenic drives along the coast and evenings spent under the midnight sun. Many accommodations offer excellent views of the surrounding nature, great for a relaxing stay.

Wildlife enthusiasts will particularly enjoy visiting in the summer as it's the prime season for birdwatching, especially for puffins, which nest along the cliffs.
