Fosshotel Eastfjords

Jump to:

Wild landscapes set the scene at this characterful boutique hotel located on the waterfront in eastern Iceland鈥檚 coastal village of F谩skr煤冒sfj枚r冒ur. Comprised of four renovated and restored historic buildings built for French fishermen who made this place home between 1898 and 1907, it鈥檚 an ideal base for hiking, walking, and enjoying the surrounding fjordland scenery. There鈥檚 47 light-flooded rooms in varying sizes and layouts, all with soothing cream, blue and silver hues, wooden flooring, patterned wallpapers, large windows, and a mix of classic and contemporary decor. Modern amenities include flat-screen TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi, and en suite bathrooms with showers.

Set on a floating pier, the hotel鈥檚 restaurant, L鈥橝bri, serves buffet style breakfasts and French-influenced dishes created with Icelandic ingredients for 脿 la carte lunches and dinners. Indoor and outdoor seating is available. Another highlight is the on-site French Museum, a small exhibition space with multimedia displays about the connection between the fishermen and eastern Iceland.

OUR OPINION:

We love the waterfront location and relaxed atmosphere at this historic boutique hotel in the coastal village of F谩skr煤冒sfj枚r冒ur. The sunsets over the fjord and surrounding mountains are hard to beat.
