Snæfell, a three-story wooden house built in 1908 situated by the opening the river Fjarðará, in the center of Seyðisfjörður.

The house early the center of musicians in town, and later it became the local post office and in 1943 it was turned into a hotel. It has beautiful views over the small bay and this natural estuary is home to birdlife, trout and the occasional Atlantic Grey Seal.

Through the years it has played many a role. A shoemaker workshop was there for a few years also the taxi station and a large restaurant. The house also served as a home to several families before becoming a hotel. Among many of the people living there was Ingi T. Lárusson one of Iceland´s foremost composers.

The house was renovated in 2007 and a lot of effort was put into storing the rooms to their original charm and state. In 2013 three new rooms were added on the ground floor: these rooms are more spacious and modern and therefore we dub them "superior".

Room facilities: Heating, Shower, Hairdryer, Toilet, Bathroom, Towels, Linen, Upper floors accessible by stairs only.
