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.

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.

Recommend this place so much! Very helpful owner and delicious breakfast, homemade cake in the morning :) Place is very good located if you want to go to the glacier tour.

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.
The location is good for joining tours from “Glacier Adventure” and you will get a discount from the Hostel. Moreover, you might see the Aurora light if you’re lucky enough. Furthermore, the WiFi network was strong. Also, you will meet different people around the world. If you forgot to buy some food before your arrival, 1. the hostel had a shelf in the shared kitchen which sells food; 2. there was a restaurant nearby. At last, feel free to enjoy the welcome cake and drinks.
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.
When we first arrived at Skyrhúsid Guest House the host showed us around and made us feel extremely welcomed. She even made homemade cake for everyone staying there that night! The kitchen was nice and spacious and included all the basic cookware one would need. Our room was very large and came with a sink which was a nice bonus. The night we stayed here we got to see the Aurora Borealis! Would 100% stay here again!
Amazing hosts, friendly and helpful. Great location and great fresh coffee machine. Welcome Marriage cake - a delicious treat! Great to chat with other travellers. Quiet, esp considering fully booked. On that note - book as soon as you can. There is little accommodation available and Hotels are expensive for a family. Would happily return here.... Guests were considerate of each other.
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
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!
I loved this little place. Everything about it and the experience. Walking up to the little restaurant for a delicious dinner and wonderful breakfast! Easy access to Glacier Lagoon. Wonderful road trip experience from my home base of the capital city while in Iceland.
I like everything of this hotel, nice size room, comfotable bed, very good breakfast. And the best staff. I forgot my charger, and left, I asked hotel whether they can send by post to Reykjiavik, and they did. Today I received the package, thank you so much Hotel Hali.
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.
Great location for Diamond Beach with an excellent restaurant next door. Rooms are cosy (like a cabin), but a nice size, and the place was clean. We saw an owner briefly, but checked in and out by ourselves, which is the norm in Iceland it seems!
I loved the view out the window, bed was comfortable, host was friendly and available when we rang for him. Very close to the glacier lagoon and almost half the price we paid for the night before in another place.
I have only stayed in one other Hostel, but truly loved this one. Clean, friendly and so close to Diamond Beach and the Glacier Lagoon. We stayed three nights and would have stayed more if we had the time.
The house was clean and spacious. In the restaurant they serve very delicious Icelandic dishes!
Also it’s only 15 minutes drive to Diamond Beach and Gracie’s lake.
