This hostel is perfect. It is warm and inviting and the host is super friendly and helpful.
The rooms are stylish and comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked and the free coffee, juice and cake are must welcome.
I honestly could not recommend this more highly and I will return.

It's close to the diamond beach and the kitchen is properly equipped. The structure looks quite basic, including rooms, but beds are comfortable: for one night is completely fine.

The guesthouse gave a accurate description of the area so we knew what services were there and not there and could plan ahead. We loved walking around and the sights and hikes that were nearby. It was so easy to get to the Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach, and we could go back to see them at night too. The hosts had many recommendations for what to do and it definitely enhanced our trip!

Absolutely loved the variety of fresh, farm to table offerings, and homemade breads at breakfast. Dinner menu was extensive, meals were delicious. Enjoyed seeing the sea birds, and sheep in the pasture. Views of mountain and bay/ ocean were great. Very close to Glacier Bay and Diamond Beach. Peaceful. Staff were friendly. Highly recommend and will return when I come back to Iceland.

we had an early assembly for ice cave/glacier walk so the location was perfect (<15min drive). Nearby area to visit are Diamond Beach & Iceberg Lagoon but we missed that due to bad weather condition.

We chose it because of the proximity to the glacier lagoon and diamond beach. What we didn’t know was that it was the perfect place for a super comfortable first night after flying and a long drive. The owners contacted us in the morning to ask if we’d like dinner, which we gratefully agreed to, as we’d not been to this area before and knew we would be tired after a long travel day. The dinner was delicious with great choices, and was beautifully spread red and served. The surrounding property was stunning - farmlands and majestic cliffs filled with seabirds. Our room was spacious with a very comfortable bed and new modern amenities. I will definitely return

Some great features in this part of Iceland, Diamond Beach was just incredible and like nothing else I have ever seen, just wish I had had the time to stay and take photos all day and night. The LAgoon upstream was also incredible, worth visiting after high tide and again as the time is coming in, the Icebergs move in a different way at both stages of the tides and it is worth seeing both.

its just great to see the icebergs at the lagoon floating out to the sea. If you have time, watch the whole cycle of the tide. Also don´t miss diamond beach. Especially in the morning when the sun rises you can take great pictures of the sparkling ice pieces lying on the black beach.
Beautiful location with easy access to the glacier lagoon and surrounding areas! The room was clean and the hot shower was much appreciated after a long day in the rain snd cold. We planned ahead and brought sandwiches because there isn’t much in the way of food in the area and that worked out well with the mini fridge to store food over might. We were sorry we couldn’t stay longer, but will come back the next time we’re in Iceland.
Staff was super nice, there was welcome cake that was delicious! Everything was clean and comfortable the kitchen was well stocked. Coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and skyr were complimentary.
The room was a good size and came with a sink which was nice to have.
A couple of restaurants in the same parking area, they are pricey, but that's to be expected in iceland.
We wanted a place to stay that was near the glacial lagoon because we had a 9:30am Zodiac tour the next morning. Hali totally met our needs. Place was clean, comfortable and quiet, and staff were very friendly. Lovely spot by the ocean, and we enjoyed watching the local Arctic Tern population darting around in the evening.
It was better than we expected. Pleasant owner, big eating area, very clean, great coffe, juice, milk, even traditional cake for free for all guests! You could find some food for breakfast for very small tips. Definitely recommended-we felt like in a cozy small hotel. They even had meniu from local restaurants nearby
Simple room with twin beds was great for short stay. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom down the hall was clean and convenient. Great kitchen with espresso machine. Short walk to nearby guesthouse for nice dinner. Conveniently close to Glacier Adventure for ice cave tours and various other activities.
We loved this location! The nearby restaurant was fabulous. Also it is directly across the road from Glacier Adventure that provides ice cave tours! Other places you have to meet at a parking lot for ice cave tours but this was their basecamp and meeting point. So simple! Hali is a great area!
The hostel is located in a very small village (few buildings), where there are also two restaurants. The room was good, the shared bathrooms were good, and the staff was very helpful and nice. It is a very good solution in such area. I recommend it.
Nice view of the ocean from the room, cleanness, staff has been very helpful and professional, delicious restaurant, wide food choice at breakfast. There is a room for drying clothes. The hotel has also a museum on a famous Icelandic writer.
Hali Country Hotel is an exceptional place to stay at. The location with the view of the glacier, the lively bird life, and the cultural center features the writer's story with an exhibition. It makes it more than just a place to sleep.
Staff was super friendly; the best customer service I’ve had so far in Iceland! The location was good, and the on site restaurant was excellent (both the included breakfast and the dinners that I paid for separately)
The hotel is close to the famous diamond beach. It has a very good restaurant onsite and also offers breakfast buffet. Be aware that reception and restaurant are separate from the accomodation buildings.
