This homey guesthouse overlooking a little inlet harbour has common spaces with charming touches, and modern rooms with flat-screen TVs and original photography on the walls. It’s located at the northern (and most charming) end of Keflavík, and is a wonderfully welcoming place to stay. Free airport shuttles.
