Overlooking Lake Lagarfljót, this guest house is 5 minutes’ drive from central Egilsstadir. All rooms include free WiFi access, a fridge and a private bathroom with shower.

A flat-screen TV, electric kettle and wardrobe are featured in all guest rooms at Skipalaekur Guesthouse. Bed linen and towels are included.

The room was quite large and nicely decorated. The shared kitchen and dining area was outstanding. The whole place was very clean. We needed help with the heating system (we are from a hot country and didn’t know how to use it) and one of the family was there within 10 mins which was greatly appreciated. We really enjoyed our stay.

Eyjólfsstadir Guesthouse’s rooms have modern, simple décor. Guests have access to 4 shared showers and 7 shared toilets.

The room was great, in a quiet place not far from our itinerary route. Breakfast was awesome as well. The host gave us a map with the area, told us about the nearby sights and interests, even a nearby hiking route of 4kms. We did it the next morning and it was well worth it.

    Sigga is a great host! Friendly and very helpful giving advice of where to visit in the area. The room was perfect. Plenty of space, very comfortable bed, and all modern decoration, warm and clean. Great shower. Kitchenette had everything I needed, and I easily managed to cook several meals there. Easy to find (literally just off route 1). A great place to stop for a few days to explore the area. Highly recommend.
