Húsey Hostel & Horsefarm features accommodation 55 km from Egilsstadir. The hostel has family rooms.

At the hostel the rooms include a shared bathroom with a shower.

Guests at Húsey Hostel & Horsefarm will be able to enjoy activities in and around Húsey, like hiking.

This was the most wonderful place to stay. The hostel is a hundred year old home maintained to its true character. The farm is in the most beautiful, isolated area. More than horses, it offers nature walks. I was only sorry I didn't stay longer. Very unique experience and loved it.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Central location (small town anyway) A lot of parking Comfy beds Would have been a perfect youth hostel accommodation (if not for the price: 280,- € per night)

    A really funky hostel, that looks nothing from the outside. You walk in to an amazingly cool bar, where the hostel reception is. They then slide the doors open into a lovely lounge with a TV and games etc the rooms are off the lounge. We had a 6 bed room to ourselves. The kitchen and showers are on the other side of the lounge and are very well equipped. We loved staying here and it was the cheapest accomodation that we booked whilst in Iceland. Very good value. The bar also had snacks and obviously drinks, but wasn't at all noisy.

    Very pleasant hostel, with a lively atmosphere. We booked a room for 2, which turned out to be a 6 person dorm room with a double and 2 bunk beds all for ourselves- which offered us all the space we needed. Shared facilities were in very good shape and clean . There is a pleasant communal space, as well as a nice bar where you can also get (a simple) breakfast.

    The hostel area was well decorated and felt cosy, the kitchen was well equipped with common foods like salt pepper and oil, lots of toilets and showers, the bunk beds were sturdy so minimal disturbance to your neighbour. Staff was wonderfully helpful.

    Great location - the bus stops outside the hostel, and it’s walking distance to everything in town. We also walked to the Vok baths from the hostel and it was about an hour so very doable. The hostel and attached bar were really cool, very quirky decor and they had lots of nice touches like a board game table and comfy sofas. The kitchen had everything you would need and was a perfect size for the size of the hostel. The toilets and showers were clean and great and the staff were very helpful.

    This was the best hostel I stayed in my whole trip in Iceland! The beds were even better than my own, with a thick layer of softness. You also have some privacy because of the curtains along the edges of the bed. There is also a cozy café included with the hostel which was great!

    Easy check-in via a key safe, great location. The camping pods are small and not very comfortable but perfect for one night. A nice little place to get yourself comfortable.
