The accommodation was clean and well equipped. There are 2 supermarkets nearby and the ferry is only a 5 minute walk away. I can recommend the guesthouse.

One night sleep near a volcano

One quick overnight stay. Staff was very accommodating for our early arrival. Rooms were clean, quiet and comfortable. Unfortunately, we had to leave early for the ferry departure and weren't able to enjoy the complimentary breakfast.

Gilbert, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Check-in was super easy and parking was available right out front. During checkout, reception went out of her way to get us some information. We thoroughly enjoyed our sleep in the comfortable beds and there was a full-sized fridge in the hallway; convenient for the grocery stores a walking distance away.

nobrainer

good value for money!
Knud, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Property is near the harbor, convenient walking access to shops, restaurants and tours.( There is no elevator for those with difficulty on stairs) The staff were all lovely and helpful.
MaryAnn, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The breakfast was extremely minimal. The common areas such as hallways were very old and seemed dirty, very average/below average for the cost.
Amy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Guesthouse Hamar is in a great location, only a few blocks from the ferry (leave your car on the mainland if you don’t really need to drive on Westmann Island). The room was a lot bigger than I thought. Shower was a little tight, but ok. Breakfast was included which was good as well. Walls are a bit thin, but there wasn’t anyone up late, so it didn’t bother us at night. Very happy with this 1 night stay.
Tracy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Bit disappointed

It was an unexpected stay because the ferry cancelled due to weather, wind. We booked online, arrived after 3pm (check in time), no one was there. We called two numbers and eventually someone came. The tv didn't work.
1-night trip

2/10 Poor

The ferry to the island was cancelled due to bad weather (8 Sept 2023). We called and emailed the hotel to explain we could not arrive per our reservation -- something they certainly would know. Hamar never answered or responded. In desperation, called Expedia for help the same day. Expedia called back the next day, informed that the hotel would not work with us or Expedia, and the hotel would still charge us as a no-show. (Since there were no doubt day visitors stranded on the island, would not surprise if Hamar ended up renting our room anyway). Beware.
