ABOUT SJÁVARBORG

Perfect location next to the harbour

Your cozy home away from home.

Sjávarborg is located next to the beautiful harbour in Stykkishólmur. The name Sjávarborg means the palace by the sea.


The basement of Sjávarborg was built 1914 as a storage facility for ice to be delivered to the boats landing fish at the harbour. In 1938 two floors were built above to house a private home and a store. Sjávarborg has since then housed a bookstore, a barber shop and a grocery store to name a few. The hostel opened May 2013.


Sjávarborg offers rooms with shared bathroom and 1 room with private wc inside the room.. The facilities are designed to allow efficient and low-cost service to guests.

Sjávarborg Café

Cafè Sjávarborg serves breakfast from May 1st. Until then  guests can make their own breakfast in our well equipped kitchen.
Café Sjávarborg offers a great cup of coffee, homemade cakes, soup of the day, wraps and drinks. We offer vegan options.

You can sit down and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere with your travelling companions or meet locals.
