Staying in Stykkisholmur

Stykkisholmur sits on the northern side of the Snaefellsnes peninsula, facing Breidafjordur, and it is one of the main stops on the peninsula's coastal road. The hotels here fall into two groups: those with addresses in the town itself, such as Adalgata, Austurgata, Borgarbraut, Frúargata, Laufasvegur, Hofðagötu and Lágholt, and those on the roads and farmland around it, at Snæfellsnesvegur, Hólar, Vogur, Miðholt, Helgafell and Skógarströnd. The town addresses put you within reach of the harbour and the streets, while the countryside ones suit travellers with a car who want quiet and open views.

The 3-star range makes this list useful for couples and families who want a simple, well-rated room rather than a large resort, and for business or one-night travellers passing through on the peninsula. Guest ratings cluster at 4.5 to 4.7 out of 5, with the two most reviewed properties, Fosshotel Stykkisholmur and Miðhraun Lava Resort, drawing the largest numbers of guests.
