    Because of the strong wind it was a little bit noisy so we didn’t get much sleep

    We stayed in the bungalow and it was so nice. The bungalow was big and clean. The breakfast and dinner were great!

    The access to the "hut" we stayed in is via steps so you have to carry your own luggage up and down those stairs. no car access to the one we were in. it was a bit of an inconvenience. the road access to the guesthouse is super bumpy so drive slowly.

    A very nice guesthouse, with a nice breakfast included. we also enjoyed their dinner on our last night there. the little "hut" we stayed in was very cute and cozy. this location is about 30 min drive from Hofn and approx 40 minutes from Glacier Lagoon which was very convenient for us.

    We were only here for 2 nights and couldn't fault anything.

    The hotel staff were extremely friendly and so welcoming, just what we needed after a stressful drive in the snow. The food was very tasty and came in big portions, all freshly cooked. Location is great for visiting the glaciers and Diamond beach. Our daughter loved feeding the sheep! Small but comfy rooms with great showers. The breakfast was also good.

    The Guesthouse is situated off-road, on a beautiful farm. The cabin we stayed in was cozy and equiped with bathroom and towels. The view was amazing and the food delicious. We've booked it randomly because we needed a best value place to stay near the Diamond Beach, and we certainly did not regret it. A warm recommendation to anyone who finds themselves needing a shelter between Vik and Höfn.

    Absolutely stunning location, I can’t emphasise this enough. We were lucky enough to experience some of the aurora borealis just a short drive from the guesthouse. The rooms are very clean and warm in the winter, and the breakfast included in the price is a real plus and, from our experience, this is quite rare in Iceland. Probably the most memorable accommodation from our whole trip.

    Rooms were on the warm side and you are unable to control the temperature as it is central heat. It was very windy so the window wouldn't stay open. A few more hooks on the wall for clothes would be handy and more towel hooks on the WC.

    Beds were very comfortable. Lovely view of the mountains and ocean. Staff helpful and extremely friendly. We had dinner at the restaurant twice and both times were excellent. Love the warm fresh bread at breakfast. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

    nothing :)

    We were expecting really less, but the room was big and cosy, with bathroom in the room. View from the window was amazing, over the fields and glaciers in the distance. Breakfast buffet to die for - the best breakfast we had in Iceland! Not to mention the dinner - be there at 19:00 start to order the lamb (do not go for the burger, seriously try the lamb!).

    Bedroom door handle was broken when arrived. Young staff member very understanding, older staff member blamed us for breaking it when we had only just arrived. Asked for alternative room. Instead they “fixed it” only to nearly get locked in our room in the morning.

    Breakfast was great. Beautiful surroundings. Quiet rural atmosphere with great views of the glaciers

    Facilities were missing a bit: no shower gel dispender and during the evening the electricity went down for a few minutes and the bed was not a double.

    Good location with a great view, we could see the glacier from our window. The breakfast was also nice.

    It was further from Jökulsárlón than I might have liked, but I would have happily stayed there a few days and figured out nearer glacial adventures from there.

    Absolutely gorgeous surroundings with glaciers and mountains on all sides. The room had 3/4 length windows onto the mountains. Stunning. Spacious room for one, but 3 could have stayed in it and it would've been a bit more cozy. Dinner was great. Breakfast good. Staff just lovely!

    The mattress was a bit uncomfortable but other than that absolutely nothing to compain.

    This accommodation was absolutely lovely and amazing. We had one of the two houses and it was very cozy and very clean. The glacier view is stunning. The staff was very nice and the food was great. The prices are fair, also for dinner. We will definitely come back!

    There was no shampoo or conditioner in the shower, however the receptionist kindly gave us a bottle of shampoo for us when we asked. We greatly appreciated that as we were coming off a long day!

    We loved our cozy cabin! It was perfectly warm, and the bedding was really nice. Breakfast was very good, great selection of meats, breads, cheeses, and fruits. Definitely well worth what we paid for! It was cloudy when we stayed but I’d imagine this would be a great place to see the northern lights on a clear night.

    What a lovely place to stay! The owner and staff were very welcoming and the rooms quite comfortable. Would strongly recommend staying here. We chose to eat dinner on the property each night we stayed, too, and everything we tried from the menu was delicious!
