Very friendly staff. Optional (not included) breakfast on site. Great view from the hotel. Quaint hotel. Upper floor has slanted ceilings - my tall husband banged his head a time or two, but I was fine. Small, cozy rooms. Fine for a night. Not sure I’d want to stay here long-term.
This hotel offers relaxing outdoor hot tubs, an 18-hole golf course and activities such as whale watching and snowmobile safaris. Reykjavik and Snæfellsnes National Park are a 1-hour drive away.
This property is 4.3 mi from central Borgarnes and 30 minutes’ drive from Akranes. It provides accommodations with kitchen facilities and free WiFi in public areas.

Perfect house and rooms. Amazing glass room with cute candles.
I love the kitchen most! It provides all I need, such as a bottle of oil, spices, and special hand-made sauce. It's really nice with spaghetti.

The local pool was lovely - we went in the evening, so it was dark (I really like this).
There was a local cafe/bar that served some great value meals - the lamb chops were sublime.
There is a lovely friendly vibe in Borganes, and I would highly recommend putting it on your trip.

It is a bit run down but it is quiet and the beds are comfortable. Like most of Iceland in our experience, the pillows could be better. Hot pot, coffee, tea, cream and sugar are provided, which was nice. There is free parking, however I can imagine at times it may be hard to find a spot as the lot supports the restaurant as well. We had dinner at the restaurant, food was good and the portion was large.
In a nutshell, this is a decent budget accommodation, with a restaurant on site which makes it convenient. If you plan to eat at the restaurant, make a reservation before 5pm. They were able to squeezed us in without one but there were many who were not as lucky.

Borgarnes is underrated as it doesn't have any bucket-list...
Borgarnes is underrated as it doesn't have any bucket-list sights. It's a mid-size small town by Iceland standards, but it's got a lot to recommend it - it's a very typical Icelandic place, and one with a variety of landscapes and bay views.
The Settlement Museum is overpriced (as most Icelandic museums are), but even without a visit there, Borgarnes is a good place for walking. It also has some decent to excellent eateries (the Bara bar and restaurant in the heart of the town is outstanding, and even the N1 station cooks up some of Iceland's best meat soup.)

Beautiful views. Lots to do and see.
Beautiful views. Lots to do and see. An area with a lot of history. A good for both people who like to do independent activities and people who prefer guided tours. It is the place of viking settlements and the sagas. There is a Settlement museum to learn about it. Waterfalls and a la a tube cave you can take a tour of.

We had a few hours here on the way to the Basalt Hotel. Car parking was free. There was a pathed route to walk around the coast. We had coffee and lunch at a wonderful place called Blómasetríð - Kaffi Kyrrð. We sat outside in a beautiful courtyard/garden. The food was excellent and the staff were polite and kind.

Drove by car from Keflavik at 10 AM - visited Akranes lighthouse and nice museum - had great vegetarian buffet lunch in Borgarness - at a vikkingmuseum.
Drove to our hotel and then to the KRAUMA spa and we had dinner there.
Next day we drove to the waterfalls Barnafoss, then to visit the lavagrotto and took over the highland on the road 550 back towards Reykjavik. Great tour!
The property was off the beaten path with a charming room. The host welcomed us with champagne, shrimp and cavier. The bed was very comfortable and the facilities were modern and updated. There is also a hot tub to enjoy and breakfast in the morning with a wonderful view. The breakfast was better than any restaurant we’ve been to here. By FAR one of the nicest ladies we’ve met in Iceland; she was welcoming, informative and gracious. This place does not disappoint.
Hotel had wonderful location next to the city Borgarnes, between ocean and mountains, very close to the main road. Place was small but had lovely atmospere. Outside there was jaccuzi available for everyone. In the eating space there was complementray tea and coffee to take through whole day. The room was very nicely decorated and pleasant to stay with big comfortable double bed. Breakfast was rather modest but absolutely enough to start the day. WiFi worked well.
Fjola and Jon were outstanding hosts. Our apartment on their farm was a haven for our stay near Borgarnes. Views of the surrounding fields were great, and such a nice change from city hotels. The apartment had everything we needed, including a filter coffee maker. The weather turned overnight, and roads were closed the next morning. Fjola kindly informed us of this and offered that we could stay longer, which was very generous.
Very good value - we had a 22h layover in Iceland, and we were able to rent a car and whole trailer cottage for cheaper than staying at a hotel closer to airport. It was an easy drive with nice views. Great place to sleep before next days flight - we also drove a little more to look at views in the evening. Cozy and functional, with a view to mountain tops.
We booked this location on the road because our travel plans changed. The bungalo was awesome. We didn't expect such an adorable stay. The bed was comfortable and our place was away from the main hotel which we loved. The view was fantastic of the moutains and the bay. The kitchenette was put to use for a home cook meal.
This hotel was overall fantastic. The staff was very friendly. The room was big, with amazing views and big windows. The hotel also has a hot tub which is included. We had the chance to hike to a waterfall 15 minutes away from the hotel which was an amazing experience. Would definitely stay here again!
Excellent location for our last night on the Snaefellsness Peninsula before returning home. The hotel was clean, staff pleasant, and the onsite restaurant made everything easy. Our room had a view of the bay. Sunrise the next morning was spectacular!
Everything!
The movie themed room was awesome. It was like a little home versus a small hotel room. Maja (owner) was very sweet and accommodating. We booked last minute after leave a different hotel down the street.
Spacious room and equipped kitchen with small fridge. Near Route 1. Nice bathroom and clean. Good communication with hotel. Arrived late no issues. Parking in front. Good value for money. Scenery area.
The room had a good size and was clean and had good blackout curtains. Bed confortable. Parking options right between the two hotel buildings and in general a very good location in Borgarnes.
Very helpfull staff. The hostelroom is located in a fancy hotel. Very beautiful interior. For that price... Best price-quality I booked in all Iceland. Good beds, nice food at the restaurant.
Really friendly host in a beautiful location. Borgarnes is a great base to get out and discover this part of Iceland. The accommodation is a real home from home place to stay.
nice hotel on our way to Akureyri. We had the hostel room for 6 and it was perfect. The breakfast is good. You can walk to the Swimming pool and around to enjoy the views.
The view out behind the guest house was beautiful as was the town. The spirit of the town is one of the things we really liked about Iceland. Very childhood supportive.
