Salthus Guesthouse

Located in Blonduos , in Iceland outskirts most accomudations are " guesthouses " with a common kitchen enabling you to cook 1 or 2 simple dish . Building may look unimpressive from outside but internal the rooms are great.......comfy n clean. Its located besides the Sea , slightly hilly and a great place to view the Aorora / northern lights , which we did saw at around 11pm to 12pm, while waiting in frezzing cold of -5° but it was worth it.

We had great communication with the property and they were so accommodating. However, when we showed up, we walked into the room and couldn't really fit. There was no where to store our bags and we ended up having to buy a second room just so we could sleep comfortably. However, the joint kitchen was lovely - we had a large fridge we could use and enjoyed the space until late in the evening.

We stayed one night in a ground floor room overlooking the parking lot. This was convenient for suitcases but we had absolutely no view. It was cold and rainy and it would have been nice for some kind of water view with comfortable chairs available for all guests. The room was very basic. The family sharing the kitchen on the other side of our bedroom wall made a tremendous amount of noise but thankfully they quieted down by the time we went to bed. We had a huge problem with the shower which immediately flooded the bathroom and part of the sleeping area. We had no equipment to clear out the water ourselves and called the number that came with the room instructions. After about 15 minutes a woman arrived in boots and with the necessaries to take care of the flood. She said she found tons of hair in the drain, as if someone had a haircut. She also said that we were "lucky" this happened today because the week before she was someplace else. We were left wondering what we would have done if she hadn't been available as the bathroom was unusable. We were glad we were only staying one night.

Beautiful location and very clean room. We enjoyed our stay here and wished we had more time to explore the area!

Nice Guesthouse with a tidy and clean appearance. Really enjoyed the stay. Fully equipped kitchen free to use and also a free usable washingmaschine.

Excellent, updated/modern guesthouse. Kitchen has all the dining tools you need. Room is large and spacious as is the bathroom. The best part is the view from your room to the ocean. Saw whales from the rear of my room. Absolutely beautiful walk to beach and water from room. Highly recommend.

The room is spacious and clean. The view is amazing and mesmerizing. The property is mouse quiet. The room had one operable window which allowed fresh air entry. The bed was very comfortable. The Harbor restaurant next door was VERY GOOD.
