our stay on the island was simply delightful. we were so close to a tiny harbor, making it easy to explore. the cozy hotel was well-kept, and the friendly staff made our experience even better. The food at the restaurant was outstanding. we especially loved the fantastic breakfast, which included a delicious cooked barley option.

totally recommend

Our stay was magical, with stunning birdwatching just a short walk away and the cozy, charming rooms making us feel at home.

I had a wonderful stay where I loved the charming, cozy room and enjoyed delicious lamb for dinner at the restaurant. The sun terrace was perfect for relaxing, and the leisure room was a great spot to unwind after exploring. It was a bit inconvenient that the shower on my floor wasn't functioning, but the trip to the other one wasn’t too bothersome. Definitely recommend trying the fish of the day!

Beautiful view and friendly staff, but small rooms made it a bit cramped.

This charming hotel provides everything I need, a cozy restaurant with excellent food, cute staff who helped with my documents, and a relaxing lounge area. I can't wait to return for a romantic escape.

Charming Stay with Great Location for Birdwatching

A cozy one-night experience! Enjoyed delicious meals at the restaurant while watching Arctic terns dive around us. Friendly staff made us feel welcome despite the busy tourist season. Pro tip, explore the area for puffins—it's a birdwatcher’s paradise!

Hotel Flatey offers a good escape into nature with really good dining that surprised me. Despite the shared bathroom situation causing minor inconvenience, the cozy atmosphere and amazing views made my stay nice.

charming experience with slight distance drawback

Flatey Island offers a unique atmosphere that transports you back in time, with beautifully decorated rooms that were upkept nicely. The hospitality was exceptional. the staff were welcoming and even reached out before our arrival to accommodate our needs. The breakfast provided was incredible, featuring a variety of options that surpassed our expectations, especially the cooked barley. Also, the sea view from the dining area was a lovely touch, enhancing our dining experience.

The distance from the ferry dock to the hotel is a bit inconvenient for those with heavy luggage.

Our stay was nothing short of magical. The room had breathtaking views of Breidafjördur Bay, and the cozy atmosphere made it feel like a home away from home. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was a standout with a delicious cooked barley option that set us up for a day of exploration.

There were no significant downsides.

Flatey Island captivated me with its serene charm. The hotel’s old-world atmosphere felt like stepping back in time. The room, a Double or Twin Room with Shared Bathroom, offered basic comfort, but it lacked darkening curtains, disrupting my sleep during the bright summer nights. The staff greeted me warmly and checked my needs in advance. Breakfast exceeded my expectations. the options were fresh and filling. I loved the cozy communal areas, although they felt limited. Birdwatching was spectacular, with puffins and other species nearby. The remote location created a peaceful retreat, yet the shared bathroom situation left something to be desired. A longer wait for breakfast could be improved, but the stunning views made it all worthwhile.
