The hosts were lovely and always greeted us with enthusiasm and lovely smiles. It had all that we needed. Easy parking, quiet and clean.

Very basic hotel (could hardly turn around in room). Located in very isolated small town. One dining option in town (5 mins walk). Helpful and friendly staff, very quiet and clean.

Small but very clean and comfy. Plus the staff was wonderfully helpful!! Amazing stay

Hotel Finna gives new depth to the term "minimalist". This is barely a "hotel".  There are no closets, no bureaus, no shelves, no hangers, no toiletries. A small table and chair is all there is room for along with the bed. The flat TV is on the wall but didn't work. And, the bathroom is just large enough for a toilet and small sink with a shower barely large enough to turn around in without stepping outside. When we arrived, we asked for ice for drinks and were told to go to a supermarket nearby and get it there.  "Breakfast included" is comprised of a few slices of cold meat, tomatoes, boiled egg and white bread with margarine. We were told that the eggs were only served hot every other day. Clearly unionized chickens. Young person cleaned tables around things in the middle wearing gloves and using same gloves when she dealt with food.  One can only imagine how she cleaned the rooms.  We were supposed to be there 3 nights and run away after one night.
Perhaps the most serious issue was that the price in Bookings.com was listed in local currency but the amount charged to the credit card was the same number but in Euro (715.36 EUR): 3 times the amount. We paid for this “luxury” EUR 238.45 per night and the owner of the hotel did not bother to acknowledge the mistake and return the difference.

Do not trust what it says on Booking.com

Small guesthouse in the little town of Holmavik. It became one of our favorites due to the kindness of Kathy (hotel manager) who gave us some great tips for the rest of our Iceland trip and prepared breakfast for us. Our room was nice, facing the coast. It was small but totally fine for 2 people, and had a mini fridge and kettle, as well as a TV. Everything was very clean. We spent 2 nights here and explored the Westfjords from Finna Hotel which we can definitely recommend. Big thanks to Kathy for making our time that much more fun! 

Great hotel for exploring Westfjords

This charming hotel nestled in the small coastal town of Holmavik is precisely what you want if you're reading this review. Whether you're coming or leaving the breath-taking landmass of infinite wonder known as The WestFiords, this gateway hamlet is strategically advantageous, & the Finna Hotel is its worthy host. The town itself is a must given its fascinating history, the Museum of Sorcery and Witchcraft, local statuary art, & the not too distant Eiriksstadir, where you easily step into the world of 10th century viking life.
From my hotel window, I could see over the tops of local homes, boat masts in the middle distance, and the gorgeous waters just beyond. My room was rather large for the price of it, providing the plenty room to re-organize during what was for me a mid-point in my Icelandic exploration. 
There seems to be this frustrating movement toward super soft beds, & as most people over forty will tell you, there is nothing comfortable about sleeping on a cloud. For their part, the Finna offers the Goldilocks of beds: not too hard but properly firm. The bedding itself offered a couple options and this leads me to what I really want to say about the Finna Hotel: there is a degree of Thoughtful-ness that I DID NOT encounter at the 3 other hotels I stayed during my visit to the country. 
The sincerity that I encountered from the (?mgr/owner?) Cathy was at once reassuring. I know this will sound corny but she has the air of authenticity such that when she said something to the effect of "Let us know if there is anything I can do for you.", it sounded not like a auto-kindness of average concierge, but well, like a friend, warm & from the heart. The next morning she was training the new seasonal staff on the manner by which to set about the Continental Breakfast. She directed with authority and respect. It may have been very early morning but the vibe was jovial, like maybe she was once a teacher. I had 3 other "continental" breakfasts but this was the freshest, and most thorough. Also, the only one that provided cream cheese, which, darn it, I love. 
Toiletries were complete, plenty of towels, all the coffee fixings you could want, shades were completely adequate for coping with that midnight sun. Clean, did I mention clean? I don't usually walk around in less than socks on hotel floors but here none of that weird stickiness you encounter. 
The fact of the matter is, this isn't just some place purveyers intend to let "just get by" on location, & lack of immediate competition (there are some "guest houses" near-by, but I've had less luck at some of those so-called places). This place is NOT destined for decline (like so many coastal hotels I've encountered on shores around the world, but an absolute jewel, intended to be as much a part of the traveler's experience, and an indispensable mainstay of the region.

I fully endorse this place; you can literally do no better.
Best accommodations I had in Iceland.


An indispensable jewel of N.W. Iceland

We loved the manager, Kathy, she really made our visit special.  It’s clear she is working hard to help restore this hotel to its former state.  It’s a funky little place, each room having different amenities.  Some with large mirrors, some with small.  Same goes for sinks.

The views from the rooms are spectacular.  

Good place to stop along the way

Not a five star hotel and the room and the bathroom were on the small side but considering the price, it was more than acceptable.

Hotel is a bit run down, and not well maintained. Walls have a lot dark line spots and nail holes. Guests were constantly slamming their doors. Bathroom is not too clean. Windows are not clean too.
