Such an outstanding hotel in Iceland - Fosshotel Westfjords. We had a group of wedding professionals at World Class Wedding Venues - Say "I Do" Worldwide - touring Iceland searching wedding ideas for brides and grooms wanting to get married or take their honeymoon in Iceland. The Westfjords are outstanding! World Class Wedding Venues team of wedding experts traveled through picture perfect postcard settings. The Westfjords Fosshotel is a perfect place for couples or wedding guests wanting to escape the busy city and explore virgin lands of Iceland. Amazing time our wedding team had at the FossHotel Westfjords - thank you so much for having a friendly, welcoming team who always greeted us with a smile! World Class Wedding Venues

Boring chain. We had 15 lovely guest houses or family hotels in Iceland we loved. But this place was just drab. Too corporate. Zero charm. Unfortunately it was th only place available.

Of the 8 hotels we stayed at in Iceland, this was our least favorite. The service was least effort possible. Coffee machine at breakfast didn't work properly the entire time we were there and no one seemed to care. We had a toilet that was leaking all over the bathroom floor and not sure who designed the shower in this room, but putting a curtain in a 1X1M shower means it sticks to you the entire time you're in there. You won't have many choices in this area, but I'd look elsewhere if you can.

Convenient hotel in beautiful fjord
There are not many hotels in this region and Foss is a quality nation-wide brand. This seems to be usually used for tour groups but the location is beautiful for anyone looking to visit the bird cliffs, red sand beach or other attractions in the area. Be aware that the rooms that face the fjord also face the road, which is busy and as there is no A/C, if the window is open for air, you will hear street noise.

Could have been cleaner
The floors in my room were dirty. It had dust and hair balls along the edges of the wall. The people at the front desk was very helpful and kind.
