At Hótel Eyja, we strive to be kind to the environment, and part of that is minimizing unnecessary cleaning during your stay. Being an environmental friendly hotel we are doing our best to minimize the use of recourses like cleaning supplies and water. This is not mandatory, just a gentle request to join us on our sustainability journey.
When you check in, after we’ve informed you about our light-cleaning approach, we’ll ask if you’re okay with this arrangement. Most of our guests happily jump on the green wagon with us!
Of course, if anything happens or you change your mind, just let us know. If you need housekeeping, extra towels, or any other small items, feel free to ask at the reception or speak to the maids on your floor, we’re happy to help.
We got the message! Towels on the floor mean “please change me.” If you’re happy to reuse, simply hang them up and we thank you for saving water.
Start your day with a delicious organic breakfast served in our bright, welcoming restaurant on the ground floor.
