The Guesthouse is strategically ideally located: In a few minutes you will be on the Vök bath with the car, where we were wonderfully relaxed in the evening.
The rooms are relatively large, very clean and the bed including kitchen and ceiling was very comfortable – you really sleep well.
I would like to emphasise the great common kitchen. It is modernly equipped and offers several cooking fields so that all guests can cook without problems at the same time without coming in the cross.
All you need is found in the surrounding area: a large supermarket and a tanker are only about 700 metres away.
Overall a very pleasant accommodation with practical location and good equipment.
Behind the blue church, there are cool loft beds, but the room is on the third floor and there is no elevator.
The room space is OK, there is no wardrobe for hanging clothes, only a few hangers, and the mirror in the toilet is not very friendly to the short Asians (like me)
Because it is off-season, the whole town is super quiet and there are not many choices for eating. In addition, the owner of this hotel has several buildings in this town, don't go wrong
Very very satisfied with the stay. The room is small but there is a sink. There are many public bathrooms and there is no need to queue at all. The staff is good and breakfast is free. The surrounding environment is very beautiful. It is very enjoyable to go nearby in the morning and evening. It is definitely a place to recommend to friends.
Nice hostel with common shared space and kitchen, next to Nettó supermarket. There is a laundromat next door (at the camping place), used with extra fee. 30 mins drive from the Hengifoss
It is still relatively spacious, with a separate bathroom, and the unexpected harvest is that this hotel is very close to the puffin nest. When we arrived, it was almost 10 o'clock in the evening. The front desk little goth waited for us to tell us where to see puffin. It is especially emphasized that you can see thousands of puffin at this time at night. We didn't hesitate to go, sure enough, a lot, but fun
Hotel is at our stop-overnight location. Good spot for star glazing and watching Northern Lights. Bed is comfortable, very quiet at night. Dinner were good and breakfast is moderate.
They allowed us to store our luggage as we arrive early which is very nice.
Beachfront resort but I only got a skylight. Even the bathroom had a better view. The room had 2 beds but linens were removed for one since I was a solo traveler and only 1 towel was provided. No shoes policy helped keep the house clean. That is very good. I didn’t use the kitchen much except to make tea but seems like it is in good condition. Dishwashing liquid however was in a glass jar instead of pump. It’s strange cos you end up using too much for a small spoon and the jar is very slippery. Bathrooms were clean. Breakfast was excellent! Hot food along with homemade breads. It was the best breakfast I had in my 2 weeks in Iceland. Location is an hour drive from Egilsstaðir via some mountain pass, gravel roads and along the coast road. The views are breathtaking. But it’s a small town and if you don’t intend to hike around the area then it might not be worth spending so much time getting to and fro your accommodation.
Very helpful staff on a range of travel information, fantastic. The location beside the harbour beautiful and access to northern lights viewing with excellent staff guidance on where to try. Food delicious for dinner and breakfast. Rooms comfy quite clean and functional, warm shower, hot if you want, good WiFi

Mmodena25We stayed here in transit for our trip around the ring road. The room was clean and had accommodations for the four of us. The breakfast was a plus and helped us get on with our trip the next day. They have blackout curtains so sleeping wad not an issue. Only detail is we were booked on a half floor were the elevator did not fo directly so we had to go up one floor and then run up some stairs to get to our room.

BBanchaI had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Iceland! The room was clean, cozy, and very comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit. One of the highlights was the breakfast – fresh, delicious, and with a good variety to choose from. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!
