Hotel Vatnsholt

We are husband and wife Jóhann Helgi Hlöðversson and Margrét Ormsdóttir. In 2005 we bought Vatnsholt farm and moved here with our children. The farm needed a lot of work, so we immediately started renovations and rebuilding. In late 2008 came a huge setback with the financial crisis that hit Iceland hard. We were forced to slow down the rebuild due to these difficulties. With hard work and dedication, we opened Vatnsholt guesthouse in 2010. At that time, we had 14 rooms but today they have expanded to 34 rooms and a restaurant that can accommodate up to 300 guests.
Vatnsholt guesthouse is our passion and we look at every guest that stays with us as part of our family. We are honored you choose our guesthouse when traveling around our beautiful country and hope you enjoy your stay with us.
This video shows the changes that have taken place at Vatnsholt since we came here.
