Exelent Pizza, exelent survice. Came here with friends to selebrate that one og us is getting married next saturday. Evrybody loved the food and survice exept the one icelandic women that did't like that we were loughing and having fun 🙃😉😊

Exelent pizza

We stayed there 2 nights in crazy stormy weather in the middle of July.  The house is old and whilst being there during a storm had a real charm to it, it felt like it was going to give to the weather at times.  The rooms are small, but everything you need really. Clean, but will need some maintennce soon.  Staff is super friendly, and the food, we only tried the pizza, was great. Tbh I would have like a little less, notice, less toppings. Since there was a storm we didnt really do much but bolungarvik has a good swimmingpool.  It was a good place to be in a storm.

Lovely place.

We had great expectations when we made reservations for 12 persons in Einarshús in Bolungarvík 8 months in advance. We booked all 6 rooms on the second floor and yet when we came to check in 4 of us got the 2 rooms in the cellar, beneath street level. The cellar rooms did not at all have the standards we expected and the toilet and bathroom in the cellar were disgusting, to say the least. This is an old house with history but what I saw of it, the cellar and the dining room are not well maintained. The food was poorly served with no elegance and did not even taste good. The potatoes had the tase of being warmed up and the lamb was tough. The fish tasted better but was nothing for the eye.

Under expectations

Group of three of us were the only guests in the hotel. Our room was a good size and the bathroom was large and very nice. Wifi was excellent. Didn't do anything in town so location was fine with plenty of parking.  

We only stayed one night and for dinner the owner Benedict cooked us lemon fish. It was similarly pricey to other places, but he brought out a huge skillet for us all to share. I hadn't had that much food for almost two weeks! He had tried to get us to order the fish gills, but though we declined he brought some out for us to try. I asked how much his Einstok beers were, especially one that was much stronger (and more expensive) and he replied for me they were all the same price. 9% gets you when you survive off of gas station hot dogs.

He gave us the background on the house, which we didn't realize would be a description of how anyone the original owner every loved had died, and included Ben producing the tiny shoe of the owner's son who died of TB. He said they found the shoe in the wall during some construction, and offered up his own interpretation of what that might mean. One of Benedict's mates was staying there while in town from Reykjavik, so after everything was locked up and turned off it was just the four of us in the house.

Ben's daughter walked over to grab some breakfast in the morning and when my friends commented that his Facebook page lists 'nightly live music', and that we had not in fact heard any live music the night previous, he promptly brought out his guitar and had his daughter sing "Hallelujah" by the recently (at that time) deceased Leonard Cohen. Her beautiful voice made it a heavy moment as our group of three sat alone, in the dining room, eating toast at not yet 9:00 am.

When we left I had to turn the car around because we realized we had miscounted on our beer report settling the bill. He as surprised to see us back, and said we probably should have just kept going!

In all an extremely memorable and intimate experience with Benedict. We felt like we were staying with a friend who was taking really good care of us.

Great Stay!

We were a group visiting this place in Bolungarvík. Very interesting house.This house came from Norway in late 18century. The family with 9 children  which 8 of them died and their mother of sickness at that time.  Pictures of the folks on the walls.  We got warm welcome from the staff .

Wonderful place to visit.  Historic, food, cosy.

Ive stayed there for one night. Staff is nice but rooms are so small. No breakfast was offered to me or anything to boul a water to make a coffee. Noted so much dust under the beds when leaving. I think there's must be other places to stay alpaying 12.000 Isk.

So expensive for what it offers.

We stayed in this historic house in August 2016 and the room was clean and the beds good. Although the bathrooms are in the corridor there were two of them and we newer had to wait for one of them to be vacant.
The breakfast was buffet style with a good variety of cold items.

We had dinner in the restaurant in the evening and the food was very good and the service to. The owner is there himself to take care of the guests and make you feel at home. He even entertained the guests with singing and playing both on guitar and Harmonika in the evening.
esthoust
Will definitely stay there again and visit the restaurant to. As a guesthouse deserves 5 stars
