Hotel Höfn

Perched by the sea in Höfn, Iceland, this golf-focused hotel draws guests who want to explore the region’s dramatic landscape without straying far from comfort. Rooms feel purposeful and uncluttered, with views of the glacier or sea from select vantage points, desks for settling in, and the quiet warmth of an electric kettle for tea or coffee. Days unfold between the restaurant’s local specialties (including lobster), the bar, and a sun terrace overlooking the garden, where guests can linger and absorb the surroundings. A bicycle rental service opens up the neighborhood on two wheels. The Hornafjordur Art Museum and Huldusteinn Stone Museum sit within a 15-minute walk, while Silfurnes Golf Course lies 0.7 miles away. For those drawn to Iceland’s ice, Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon is less than an hour’s drive. Staff at the front desk stand ready to help with questions and tour arrangements throughout the day and night.
