Jollene YangAn absolutely magical stay on the bay in Eastern Iceland — easily one of the most memorable cabins we stayed in during our trip.
The location is simply spectacular. Waking up to seals swimming in the water and then lazing along the shore right in front of the cabin felt almost surreal. It’s the kind of place where you could happily spend hours just looking out at the bay and watching the wildlife go by.
The cabin itself was beautifully designed, cosy and exceptionally well equipped. The hosts had thought of so many little details that elevated the stay — from good-quality cookware and a well-stocked kitchenette to spices, pasta and rice in the pantry, luxurious Icelandic herbal teas, a generous selection of Nespresso capsules and welcome chocolates waiting for us on arrival. These thoughtful touches made it feel far more like a boutique retreat than simply a cabin stay.
The beds were wonderfully comfortable, and despite its compact size, the kitchenette and washroom were thoughtfully designed and completely functional.
We especially loved the telescope provided for wildlife spotting — such a brilliant addition given the incredible surroundings. And, of course, the sunroof was a highlight in itself. There is something incredibly special about lying in bed and looking up at the Icelandic sky (would be amazing during Aurora season)!
Peaceful, intimate and surrounded by nature, yet with all the comforts you could ask for. Between the seals at our doorstep, the beautiful bay views and all the thoughtful details inside, this was a truly special Icelandic stay and one we would return to in a heartbeat.

Tumpy TumTumThere is no reception or service at this hotel. There is a restaurant downstairs, but it was closed during our stay. They simply send you a code for self check-in. Make sure to double-check your room, as they initially gave us a different room from the one we booked, though they changed it quickly after we contacted them.
One tip — visit Kirkjufellsfoss early in the morning. There is almost nobody there, and you can enjoy the whole mountain completely to yourself.

It was great that there was a hot tub.
Wi-Fi was not available in the private rooms, but was available in the common areas. The shared kitchen was clean and spacious.
Bed linen racks were not included in the room rate, so I ordered linen after booking. Note that this is an additional charge.
I think it was 1,500 ISK per person.
Also, I personally didn't like the fact that the shower room wasn't private and you had to share it with other guests. I wish there was at least one private shower.

Really lovely hotel. Everything great, only downside was the location. We hadn’t realised how far out it was from everything. Great for seeing northern lights but at least a 2 hour drive to lots of the popular sights.

Everything was great about this place. The staff was very friendly and nice. The room was extremely clean with everything. The shower was wonderful with very hot water. The breakfast included was superb. And we got to see the Northern Lights.

sxycA little further out from Borgarnes but it’s a nice quiet place. It’s very cute and had everything needed during the stay. The breakfast had a large variety but pretty simple—still a good spread though no continuous restocks through breakfast time. There’s only stairs to get up to the second floor in the main building. The common area/lobby was very nice and cutely decorated. I greatly appreciated the various board games provided and we spent the night playing, laughing, and relaxing after a long day. Overall a clean place! Staff were very friendly and nice too!

nayaijThe last stop on our island tour, from Akureyri to the Snæfellsnes Peninsula, was here. The hotel is located by the sea, far from any other towns or shops, yet it boasts breathtaking views. Rooms vary in size and price. The showers lack doors, making it easy for water to splash out. The hotel offers complimentary tea and coffee. There are no restaurants nearby; the hotel has a buffet dinner, but it's expensive and the food is mediocre. Breakfast is not plentiful, just enough to fill your stomach. The service was average.

1.旅館周圍沒有超市或餐廳,入住時工作人員會問是否需要預訂晚餐,我們點了燒羊肉和烤魚這兩道主菜,很好吃,推薦,尤其是那個Arctic Char;2.房間很整潔,牆面配色很温馨;3.需要注意的是,房間內沒有配備吹風機,不過長髮姑娘早點洗澡,睡覺前頭髮也幹了;4.夏季的冰島,草多的地方蚊蠅也多,建議不要開窗通風,否則就得費力撲打小蟲子:)5.早餐是自助式的,種類齊全,莓子味的酸奶味道不錯,搭配麥圈挺好吃。6.酒店外是一望無垠的田野,可以飯後散步消食。

Anonymous UserEntorno privilegiado, casa muy coqueta.
Cama cómoda e incluso cojines extras por si necesitábamos.
Desayuno bueno,la anfitriona nos dejó en la nevera comida a nuestra disposición.
A la casa no le faltaba ningún detalle, zapatillas, chaquetas por si teníamos frío.
Aparte de la cocina, tenía otra ”zona” con Sillones con cafetera Nespresso al lado y tacitas,libros,...
Se nota que la casa está preparada con ”mimo” para que nos sintamos a gusto.
A mejorar las toallas que ya estaban demasiado usadas, eso sí, limpias.

This time I traveled with my friends and booked two adjacent wooden houses. It was already evening when I arrived at the hotel. I didn't expect to pack my luggage and looked out of the wooden house window. I actually had a beautiful pink sunset, and I instantly washed away the fatigue of all the journeys.
And the real surprise is still behind! At four o'clock in the morning, we actually saw the dancing aurora in the sky outside the house, and this unexpected gift made us excited.
Of course, this stay was also full of interesting ”episodes”. Who would have thought that the four of us worked together to scrub the rented car at the door of the wooden house for a long time? It also became a unique memory of the journey.
Regarding the room, the interior of the wooden house is really not big, but it can be described as ”completely complete” and the basic needs can be met. The only inconvenience is that the luggage is not very easy to put, the space is relatively compact, and it is probably barely able to spread out two suitcases.
Overall, it was a stay full of surprises and stories, and everything was worth it for the sunset and aurora outside that window.
