The Truck Inn by Ourhotels

The Truck Inn by Ourhotels offers a unique stay in West Iceland, set in the quiet countryside of Borgarfjordur next to The Hvita Inn. Designed inside restored 1970s US Army trucks, this micro-hotel in Iceland suits couples, creative travelers, and self-drive guests seeking a personal and affordable stay rooted in Icelandic culture.

Location & Nearby Attractions

Truck Inn by Ourhotels is located in rural Stafholt in Borgarfjordur, surrounded by open fields, mountain views, and the Hvita River. Borgarfjordur is known for lava fields, waterfalls, geothermal areas, and sites linked to Iceland’s early settlement history.

Despite the peaceful location, essential services are close by. Restaurants, cafes, a bakery, a supermarket, and a pharmacy are available in Reykholt, about 10–15 minutes away, and in the town of Borgarnes, around 25–30 minutes by car.

Thanks to its location, Truck Inn by Ourhotels offers easy access to Hraunfossar and Barnafoss Waterfalls, about 23 miles (37.5 kilometers) away. Deildartunguhver Hot Spring is even closer, located approximately 10 miles (16.4 kilometers) from the property.

This Borgarfjordur hotel offers easy access to riverside scenery, open farmland, and the wide rural landscapes that define West Iceland. Reykjavik and the Reykjavik Domestic Airport are about 60 miles (97 kilometers) away, making it a convenient stop when traveling through the region.

From September through April, minimal light pollution in the surrounding rural area may allow guests to watch for the northern lights on clear nights directly from the property.

Facilities & Amenities

Truck Inn by Ourhotels features six compact rooms built inside restored 1970s US Army trucks. Guests can choose from single, double, or triple rooms, each thoughtfully designed for an overnight stop in the Borgarfjordur countryside.

Each room includes a comfortable bed, full heating, free Wi-Fi, and a private bathroom with a shower and toilet. Linen and towels are provided, and the rooms are soundproofed to help keep the stay quiet and restful. 

Every room features a full-wall mural by Icelandic artist Juan Arctic. The artwork includes a hand-picked Icelandic saying, presented with a short explanation that adds a bold, local feel.

Guests have access to a shared kitchen, with coffee, tea, and drinking water available at any time. Breakfast is included and served next door at The Hvita Inn, which also has an on-site restaurant and bar for dinner and drinks.

A highlight of the property is the outdoor hot water pool on the grounds, perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. The pool offers a comfortable soak under the midnight sun in summer and a warm break in the crisp winter air during colder months.

The stay is designed for ease and flexibility, with private check-in and check-out. Shared parking is available on site, and housekeeping services are included.
