Accommodation in Ölfus

Very nice personnel, comfortable room and cosy shared spaces like winter garden and canteen. Pleasant surprise with complimentary snacks and tea/coffee 24/7.

It’s proximity to the best tourist site

Fantastic rural location but easy access to Selfoss for beautiful evening dining. The accomodation was warm, lovely decor well stocked kitchen with all the utensils.

Cabin on a farm next to horse paddocks. Loved looking out over the fields to the horses! There were over half a dozen foals and lovely to watch them gambling so close to the cabin. Very quiet, no traffic or people noise, only the sounds of birds, horses and the wind. Kitchenette well equipped with coffee maker and condiments, cooked a few breakfasts and dinners including a BBQ dinner on the third night we were there. Bathroom was modern and roomy. Krissa was a wonderful host, thank you for making our stay enjoyable! Excellent location to base ourselves for visits to Thingvellir NP, Vestmannaeyjar and Hveragerði for hot springs and horse riding.

Despite being the most budget-friendly place we stayed at during our Icelandic adventure, our experience at this guest house was wonderful. The welcoming atmosphere set the tone for our stay. The fully equipped kitchen, stocked with everything you could possibly need, including kitchen weights, was a pleasant surprise. The entire house maintained impeccable cleanliness and was free from any unpleasant odors. Though our room was on the smaller side, it exuded coziness, and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The owners were friendly and helpful. After our muddy hiking adventure in Kerlingarfjöll, Cora kindly provided us with a garden hose and brushes to clean our boots. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Easy check in guidance from Kirsten. Perfect location. Comfortable beds, nice living room to chill and socialise, whilst prepping the evening meal. We used other accommodation during our Iceland visit, but this was my favourite 😍. There is hot tub and washing machine too but we did not used them.

At the beginning of our journey around Iceland, we spent two nights at this hotel and wished we could have stayed longer. However, our itinerary required us to continue exploring other parts of the island. Unexpectedly, our flight home was later canceled, and we needed to spend one additional night before leaving Iceland. Choosing Black Beach Hotel again was an easy decision. There are many reasons why we returned: 1. The location is exceptional. Situated by the ocean, it offers breathtaking views, complete tranquility, and convenient access to many of the area’s attractions. 2. The peaceful atmosphere of the hotel truly touched our souls. The silence, calmness, and sense of escape were exactly what we came to Iceland to experience. During our stay, there were no children at the hotel, which further contributed to the quiet and relaxing environment. For guests seeking tranquility and a chance to disconnect from the pace of everyday life, this was an added benefit. 3. The rooms and facilities are excellent—spotlessly clean, thoughtfully designed, and furnished with stylish, high-quality pieces that create a comfortable and welcoming environment. 4. Every member of staff we encountered during our stays was friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful. A special thank you to Nikola from the restaurant team. Her calm, positive, and warm demeanor perfectly reflects the spirit of the hotel. 5. The breakfast was both delicious and satisfying, and all of the meals and drinks we enjoyed during our stay were of a consistently high standard. Overall, our experience exceeded our expectations. Returning for a second stay within the same trip only confirmed our initial impression: this is a truly special place, and one that we would happily recommend to anyone visiting Iceland.

Beautiful house in a great location for exploring the golden circle. Modern and clean. Supermarket very nearby. Hot tub was a real highlight whilst looking up at the aurora.

Spacious, nice surrounding environment. The field view was superb, the personal hot tub was stunning! unexpected to see so many horses!!! Dark enough for nice star lights. First time being provided with dish washer tablets and cooking oil and herbs.

One of the best Icelandic tiny home with everything you need
