Staying in Reydarfjoerdur

Reydarfjoerdur is a small town on the coast of the Eastfjords, with the fjord and the surrounding mountains framing almost every view. Addresses on this list sit along harbour-side streets such as Hafnagata, Hafnarbraut, Strandgata and Búðareyri in Reydarfjoerdur itself, and in the outlying Breiðdalsvík area at Sólvellir, Eyjar and Selnes. A few are further out at Staðarborg, Vallargerdi, Fjarðarbraut, Skorrastaður and Neskaupstadur, so a car matters for those.

The hotels are practical rather than luxurious, and that suits the setting: days are spent driving the coast, hiking or fishing, and the evening is for a meal, a bar and an early night. Couples will find the quieter guesthouses and lodges appealing, families are served by hotels with family rooms and cots, and business travellers have desks, wifi and meeting facilities at several properties. It works best as a short break or a one- or two-night stop while travelling the east coast.
