An inn by the sea
An inn located by the sea, you can check in by yourself with a password sent to you. The guest rooms are on the second floor, and the restaurant is on the ground floor, so it is very convenient for food and accommodation.

Good amount of space in the apartment. Very clean. This was the cheapest place we could find at reasonably short notice but was pretty expensive for what we got. Very good base for exploring the Snaefelsness peninsula.

Very comfortable rooms/beds, good shower. Clean and well maintained. Olafsvik is a very quaint fishing village that was very convenient for traveling around Snaefellsnes Peninsula.

The room is spacious. However we never received emails about the checkin instructions. The phone number provided did not work. Luckily 10 -15 minutes after emailing about our arrival, the property manager showed up. We have seen other tenants trying to figure out how to check in. The apartment has strong odor.

Comfortable and clean
Received the key quote and room no. via email (although has been checking even before we left the hotel to continue our journey, did not see it till we arrived at the apartment). Easy access except need to climb the stairs with our luggage. The room is big and comfortable. There is also a restaurant at ground floor.

First of all, it’s a non-refundable booking. We booked the room day at the first, found it out right away. Tried to cancel it and book the next day. On the phone with Expedia; unable to cancel it at all. Expedia gave us partial refund; then we booked it again the next day. Received the confirmation emails with no check in instructions. Arrived before 9pm, called via the phone provided at the doorway, that lady spoke too fast and I had to ask her to slow down to get the code. Then she made me like an idiot… No elevator. Not convenient with large suitcases. Spacious room with couch and tablet! Four real beds as we booked. That’s a plus. Some pots and pans in the kitchen, but no salt or oil.

There is no elevator. We got the room in second floor. Room was very basic. Equipped with kitchen but no basic items like oil, salt. There was no coffee machine, dishwasher. It’s an outdated property.

Not fancy, but met our needs.
It was roomy enough. The curtains let in a lot of light, which made sleeping rough since there is so much daylight in May. No elevator. I had questions before checking in and tried to call the provided phone number, with no answer. The self check-in did work fine, though. There are few restaurants in Olafsvik, so be aware this hotel does not provide breakfast. We got yogurt and pastries at the local supermarket.

The room was very spacious and had all the conveniences of home. It was hard to find once we got into town. The signage wasn't clear, and we had to ask across the street where it was located.

The apartment boasts a fantastic location with stunning views and overall cleanliness. The bathroom was also well-maintained. However, the only issue I encountered was the challenge of gaining access to the apartment. The digital key code was not provided in the initial email, so I had to call the provided number, which resulted in a delay before obtaining it.

We stayed at welcome Apartments Olafsvik for two nights during our ring road trip in Iceland recently. The place is spacious, simple and basic but sufficient for our needs.

Recommend these apartments.
Great location in centre of town. But the town is small. Great restaurant just under the apartments. Apartments were roomy and had all appliances required. Maid changed towels, teatowels and cloths every day.

Lovely spacious studio apartment, easily enough room for all 3 of us. Clean and has everything needed. It is a little dated and the only thing that lets it down is no lift to get suitcases upstairs. Beware to other visitors that there is only one restaurant in town - but it is an excellent one!

Avoid if possible
- something in the room have myself and my wife food poisoning; either the coffee or the spoons/cups. - the blinds don’t really cover the windows properly so during summer when the sun doesn’t set, lots of light comes in and it’s hard to sleep. - the shower is tiny- almost unusable. - the lady on the phone could’ve been a bit friendlier.
