I stayed one night in this guesthouse. It is very clean and beautiful. It has a shared kitchen and diving room equipped with whatever I need. The position is wonderful! it is about 5 minutes away from the waterfall. I can see the mountains and Skogafoss from my bedroom window. It is a magic place. I really recommend them!

This guest house is 8 km from Skogar and 10 minutes’ drive from the Seljalandsfoss Waterfall. It offers tastefully decorated rooms with Eyjafjöll Mountain views.

A free public swimming pool in Seljavellir is a 20-minute walk from the guest house, while Landeyjahöfn and the Mýrdalsjökull glacier are both 20 minutes’ away by car.

The rooms were comfy and cozy. The kitchen/common area totally exceeded our expectations - we didn’t realize this space was part of the property at all, so that was a welcome surprise. The location was amazing, we were able to see the northern lights from right behind the building, and it was in close proximity to other beautiful sights.

    Nice reception area with helpful staff. Free hot drink facilities in reception. Rooms were bigger than expected with a wet room shower. Bed was comfy. Had the icelandic lamb for dinner in their restaurant which was delicious, cost £26 but I think that's good for Iceland! Quiet location and plenty of parking. Breakfast was basic but adequate - cereal, dried fruits, jam, peanut butter, cream cheese, cold cuts, boiled egg salad, breads, fresh fruit, juices & hot drinks. Fine for 1 night.

    Great location, Skogafoss visible from the property literally minutes away, beatiful surroundings. Great base for hiking the waterfalls way. Nice and clean property, rooms are spacious, living and dining facilities are good. Check-in was automated. Overall loved staying here for the peace & quiet and convenience, with attractions being a short walk away.
