Beautiful accommodation, you have the feeling of being immersed in nature. The room was a little small having two suitcases but very well equipped and clean. The view from the room was amazing and it was the perfect place to see the Northern Lights!

We stayed for one night as part of our South Iceland road trip. Comfortable and clean rooms, good beds and even Netflix provided on the in-room television. We enjoyed really great food cooked in-house (both dinner and breakfast) which was delicious and authentically local. Staff were friendly, location was ideal. Access to the rooms was easy, being able to park right next to the door (useful when carrying bags in the snow).StephanieAustralia - 10Scored 10
There are many hiking trails and the staff at the visitors...
There are many hiking trails and the staff at the visitors center was very helpful. We choose a 3 hours hike - to the waterfalls and a viewpoint of the glacier. It was so beautiful! it took us closer to 4 hours but this included a long stop at the view point. You don't see that many bushes and greenery in other places in Iceland - so it was also very unique. On the way back we saw some beautiful birds that stayed with us for a little white before they disappeared into the bushes. Be aware of the steep climbing that is required. However, all paths are well maintained and marked.

- 8.7Scored 8.7FabulousRated fabulous· 287 reviewsEverything about this guesthouse is great! The owner was icelandic and very friendly. She even let our friend to use the showers for free and sleep in her camper van on the property! The guesthouse is well equipped (2 shared bathrooms/restrooms!) and the breakfast was yummy, with homemade products. The bedroom was roomy, with comfy beds. Everything was clean and functionnal. The location is pretty quiet and the view is nice over the fields. You can see the ocean in the distance.jvi74500France
- From RUB 25,862 per night8.4Scored 8.4Very goodRated very good· 1,546 reviewsAlthough this is a very basic hotel, it was surprisingly comfortable, the food was more than decent, and everyone was very kind. Although not beautiful, we got the best night's sleep here compared to the other hotels we stayed in in Iceland, many of which were higher rated. Lightweight comforters so you aren't overheated in the summer. Good dinner; perfectly cooked eggs at breakfast.
Natalie FayUnited Kingdom - 8.7Scored 8.7FabulousRated fabulous· 287 reviewsA really lovely guesthouse, great for an overnight stay. The place was very clean and new. The employee who was taking care of the place was really nice, showed us around and we chatted a bit about where he is from and what he is doing in Iceland. The bathrooms were large and clean, with spacious showers where you comfortably wash and toilet in the same room.AdrianaBulgaria
