History
Family run
Holt Inn is a family-run country hotel in Önundarfjörður in the Westfjords of Iceland. Founded by Ásvaldur and Helga, together with their son Kristján and daughter-in-law Hólmfríður, known to everyone as Hófí. Our inn has always been rooted in family, personal service, and genuine Icelandic hospitality.
Today, we continue the family tradition and spirit on which Holt Inn was built, welcoming guests to experience the beauty and peacefulness of our surroundings. The dramatic mountains, quiet beaches, abundant wildlife, spectacular views, and dancing northern lights all make this a special place to visit.
Our hope is that every guest feels at home here and leaves with a lasting memory of Icelandic nature, country life, and the warmth of our hospitality.
We look forward to welcoming you to Holt Inn.
Helga, Kristján and Hófí
