Great waffle breakfast! Very nice hostess! Told us some nice stories about the area, and had some good tips for where to go next! Rooms are very nice!
NetherlandsBeautiful surroundings, great location. Rooms and common facilities were really comfortable and new. Very attentive and friendly host. Highlight to the complementary breakfast pancakes! Excellent overall experience, just felt sad we could not stay longer!
SpainI liked everything of Loa’s Nest. The host was very nice and explained everything upon our arrival. The morning after prepared (delicious) waffles and coffee for us. I loved it! The room was comfortable and very clean. I definitely recommend this place if you pass by :)
ItalyThe shower was nice and spacey. There's a fully equipped kitchen. The fridge for guests is nicely organized by rooms. The hosts are extremely friendly, they are trying their best to make you feel at home. They gave me aloe vera for a sunburn, they prepare waffles for breakfast. This was definitely the coziest accommodation we've been in in Iceland.
SwitzerlandExcellent place to stay (if you are traveling by car). Lovely hosts, spotlessly clean, stylish building and excellent breakfast
NetherlandsNice new guesthouse. Comfortable rooms and bed. Great common area. Friendly owners.
IcelandSuch a terrific guesthouse, we felt at home straightaway. Purpose-built (and recently, too), it has two hallways with generously sized rooms, plus a big common area with guest fridge, lots of coffee/tea/cocoa, some board games, extra shampoo, etc. A lovely front porch to enjoy a glass of wine and the amazing mountain view. Full-sized kitchen which guests can use, plus lots of spices, etc. which our hostess kindly said were available to use. THE NICEST HOSTS EVER - so warm and welcoming. Comfortable beds, a great shower in the morning, and oh yes, WAFFLES for breakfast too... I literally can't recommend this place enough. I wish we'd been able to stay at least a few days.
United KingdomVery warm, beautifully decorated and friendly owners. Highly recommended
GreeceVery calm und tidy accommodation. Delicious breakfast with waffles. Beautiful landscape around. Nice and friendly host.
GermanyHighly recommended if you want to feel true Icelandic hospitality. Family that runs it does it with all heart

Legal information
Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
