Why Authenticity Stands Out in Westfjords & West Iceland

In a world of mass tourism, genuine experiences create lasting memories. When you stay with Ourhotels.is, you’ll immerse yourself in the soul of Iceland—where local traditions, untouched landscapes, and warm hospitality come together to create a travel story you’ll cherish forever.

Stay in True Icelandic Inns

Ourhotels.is offers charming properties that capture the spirit of their surroundings. Rest in comfort at Ísafjörður Inn, nestled in the heart of the Westfjords, and wake up to sweeping fjord views. Feel the energy of Borgarfjörður at Hvítá Inn or Truck Inn, where riverside trails invite exploration. Each inn is uniquely designed to reflect its region’s character.

What to Do

• Hike along dramatic fjords and moss-covered lava fields.
• Spot puffins on the cliffs of Stykkishólmur.
• Relax in geothermal pools and hidden hot springs.
• Join a local guide for a glacier walk or horseback ride.
• Sample farm-to-table cuisine made with Icelandic lamb, fresh seafood, and wild berries.

When to Go

Summer (June–August) brings nearly 24 hours of daylight—perfect for long hikes and birdwatching. Autumn (September–October) paints the landscape in gold and red. Winter (November–March) offers northern lights, snowy peaks, and cozy nights by the fire. Each season delivers its own magic.

What to Pack

• Layered clothing: wool base layer, fleece mid-layer, waterproof shell.
• Sturdy waterproof hiking boots.
• Warm hat, gloves, and scarf.
• Daypack, water bottle, and snacks.
• Camera with extra batteries (northern lights love the cold!).

How Long to Stay

Plan for at least 5–7 days to explore Borgarfjörður, Ísafjörður, and Stykkishólmur at a relaxed pace. Extend to 10 days if you’d like to add whale watching, horseback riding tours, or a road trip around the Snæfellsnes Peninsula.
