PRIME SPOT NEAR THE SHORES OF SKJALFANDI BAY
Ready for some adventuring? This modern hotel’s just a 20-minute drive from Lake Mývatn and a popular starting point for the Diamond Circle – that famous sightseeing trail, which takes in the iconic sights of Lake Mývatn, Dettifoss Waterfall, and the Asbyrgi Canyon. If you’re looking for a comfy place to crash after seeing the best that north Iceland has to offer then look no further.
Húsavík isn’t just a convenient location either, it’s a historic village with sights to see and a unique charm all of its own. Known as the whale watching capital of Iceland, the seas are teeming with several species of whale and all kinds of other marine life. Plenty of whale-watching tours are in operation near the harbour – just a couple of minutes’ walk from the hotel – so don’t miss the opportunity to hop on a boat and see these wonderful creatures up close for yourself.
The Whale Museum’s just a five-minute stroll from the hotel, too, and full of fascinating exhibitions to enrich your understanding of Húsavík and the surrounding seas. The wooden church is another impressive sight and just a two-minute walk away. Designed in the shape of a cross, its architecture combines elements of Icelandic culture and religious iconography, that’s begging for you to take a photo or two. Very much the town’s landmark and a popular destination for snap-happy visitors.
Back at your hotel, head to the restaurant to enjoy Icelandic dishes utilising ingredients sourced from local farms and suppliers. After dinner, grab a drink at the lobby bar before retiring to the comfort of your room for some well-earned rest.
