We spent one full day on Westman Island in Heimaey and stayed here at the Guesthouse Hamar. We left our car and most of our luggage at the ferry parking lot (very safe) and brought just enough gear for our one night stay. The ferry from the mainland arrives right downtown and it was a very short walk to this hotel. We were greeted by two very accommodating staff members and allowed to check-in and go to our rooms early which in turn permitted us to get to our scheduled tour of the island on time. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable; about all I care about when I spend so little time in the room. Breakfast was included but we missed it because we were warned of a possible weather issue for the ferry trip back to the mainland by our host. She came to our room around 10:00 pm to help us decide if we should take the early ferry and then told us we could help ourselves to breakfast before we left even though the staff would not be around. She was great and it was nice to be helped and trusted. I do not know if I’ll ever get back to Westman Island but if I do I’ll be sure to book a room at the Guesthouse Hamar. Worth every penny.
