We stayed at a 3 bed room, which was very spacious, room and bathroom. Personnel was polite and helpful when we needed them. A kettle, coffee and tea was also there for us.

Hotel is located near the harbour, walking distance to the public pool, a bus stop, grocery store and some breakfast places. The room overlooked the harbour and was pretty clean. Staff was absolutely awesome and let me postpone my booking by a day! The common area by reception was quite stylish and comfortable with a wooden statue and panoramic windows.

Very quaint and QUIET seaport town.
Very quaint and QUIET seaport town. A lot of the restaurants and bars were closed during my stay but was able to go to 1 of them which was lovely. It's a very far east part of Iceland I recommend going to, even if it is for 1 night.

Gem! This was worth the extra drive to visit. Honestly it was my favorite part of Iceland. Rugged beauty without the long line of tourist buses to contend with. Stokksnes Beach is a hidden gem at sunrise!

The Berjaya in Höfn is in a wonderful position with the harbour on one side and a view out across the water to the glaciers and the west on the other. It is also easy walking distance to all the local bars and restaurants.

Hofn is a lovely town in SE Iceland.
Hofn is a lovely town in SE Iceland. It has numerous, easy walking paths thru town and around their waterfront including a golf course with views that I think rival those of the finest courses in the world. Not a golfer, but if I were, this is a place I would want to play. It was spectacular. The views of the glacier were outstanding. There were several good restaurants, lobster is a local specialty. There are nature and art trails along the waterfront and a number of good historical exhibits. Wished we could have spent more time here. It felt like a vibrant, fully functioning community that I would have liked to explore more.

it was one of the most expensive stay on our 12 days trips.
it was one of the most expensive stay on our 12 days trips. The room did not match the pricing.
There were not microwave nor toaster nor any other means to warm up any food. Only one working chair in the room.
It was clean, but not worth the price.

Unlike tourist traps in the USA, Hofn is a marine village built to accommodate itself throughout the seasons. It's a place to relax, take in the fresh air, and chill. Its natural beauty is more than enough.
This guesthouse was by far one of my favorite places we stayed in, if not my favorite. The property was gorgeous - it had horses, a bunny, and a garden. Their food for dinner was incredible - it was traditional Icelandic food that truly was home cooked. The family running it was very kind and accommodating, and the breakfast had a small but good selection of things. Our room was huge for Icelandic standards, and also had a beautiful view. It was peaceful here and I would absolutely stay here again!
Location was ideal for our family vacation in Iceland. Breakfast was a great spread and they kept refilling no matter how many people were there. Lots of choices for breakfast. Room was one of the larger rooms we stayed in on our Iceland vacation great size for a family of four. Room was clean bathroom good size easy to use showers.
We loved our stay at Haukaberg House--it was one of our favorite places we stayed in Iceland. There was plenty room for everyone in our group. The house had so much character, the beds were comfortable, and we loved having a table big enough to seat everyone. We would have been happy to stay longer than we did!
The guesthouse is located 2 km away from the main road, therefore extremely quiet. We could see the glaciers from the guesthouse. First night we had the lamb chop, it was very authentic Icelandic home-cooked meal.
Breakfast was excellent, they had the best, freshest, crispiest brown bread we have ever had.
The guesthouse is a farm run by a lovely Icelandic woman who really makes your stay super nice and tells you a lot of things about Iceland. The breakfast was really nice with homemade sweets. The room was very clean and confortable. The private bathroom was outside of the room but super clean and nice
I would say best "hostel" ever. We arrived late and after communication with reception via phone, they left card on the reception. Kitchen is huge, ideal for making food for the journey :)
Bed was the most comfortable I had in Iceland, what a sleep!
I will definately stay here if I ever come back.
The guesthouse is very comfortable and modern. The restaurant next to the rooms feel like the old days of Iceland, which is a nice contrast. Don't get me wrong, it's nicely decorated and definitely feels great. The food was really good! The view out of the rooms window is beyond amazing.
Stayed at the Viking for one night and wish it were more. The location was perfect, the mountains, the ocean and the vibe of the property were perfect for vacationing in Iceland. The room was spacious warm and comfortable. The bathroom and living space was huge.
Beautiful place with not only a glacier view but also icelandic ponies and sheep. The cabin was really sweet and efficient. I accidentally put a teaspoon of salt in our tea because the salt and the sugar were in very similar containers. Ha ha. Silly me.
Everything was perfect! Absolutely beautiful views, super comfortable room and the host was so friendly. We loved meeting the dogs too! It was such a special place and one of my favorite accommodations in Iceland.
Location is very good, close to Hofn, and good stop over if you’re doing full tour of Iceland. Plenty of parking space in front of the property. Room was big enough and very clean. The stuff was very friendly.
This was the finest constructed hotel in Iceland. Just superb work. The bathroom set up and functionality was just great. The restaurant was also one of the finest meals I’ve had in Europe. Really impressed.
Room and beds confortables; very kind and helpful staff; good breakfast.
The guesthouse is well situated with a beautiful view on the glacier.
The dinner is really good and not really expensive for Iceland
We had a very pleasant stay at the guesthouse. Everything was clean and the breakfast had a lot of variety and was plentiful. Would definitely recommend to stay here on your trip around Iceland.
It is a guesthouse in the countryside and one doesn't expect much of it, but it was a bit isolated and far from everything. A good station on the road to more interesting places in Iceland.
