Welcome to our hostel

Böðvarsholt HI Hostel is in the middle of the south side of Snæfellsnes Peninsula. It is a good place to stay when travelling around Snæfellsnes; the hostel is located near Snæfellsjökull National Park with all its wonders and unique nature. Enjoy all the area has to offer, such as horse riding, hiking, theatre, nature pools, and so much more only a short distance away from the hostel. Magnificent views over beautiful nature: glacier, mountains, lava, and the ocean right from our doorstep!

Our hostel is in a old classic Icelandic farmhouse with five bedrooms, kitchen and bathrooms. Enjoy the evening sun on the deck or hike around the area - the opportunities are endless.

bodvarsholt ist wirklich ein besonderer Ort! Wenn ich noch mal nach Island komme, werde ich dort auf jeden Fall länger bleiben. Meine Tochter meinte, ich hätte mich in den Ort verliebt und das stimmt!

Beautiful location! This place is remote, surrounded by farm fields and mountains. Night was pitch-black (cloudy), with the only lights coming from a few sparse houses in the distance. Bring all your food with you, because there's no pizza delivery nearby! The owners were very friendly and the farmhouse itself was clean and well cared-for. My only regret is that I didn't stay a second night.
