Excellent location – rated 9.0/10! (score from 930 reviews)
Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
A standard guesthouse, this one with staffed check-in only from 5-8pm, and offering a full breakfast for $20. Good vibe; parking at door. Grocery, gas station, and small restaurant 200m away. Myvatn itself is a fairly verdant area surrounded by endless lava uplands, with a plethora of popular tourist hikes and attractions. But not boating or swimming - oddly for an island nation, water sports are rare.

United States of Americafirst impression was not great: very old entrance door, nobody at the checkin. However, turned out to be a very nice stay, unlike some of the more negative comments I read on the Booking.com site. Comments on their normal rooms in the main building were mostly negative (too noisy). We stayed in a room in one of their apartments, in the adjacent building, room 7A-1) sharing living room, bath room and kitchen with another family (who didnt say a word during the whole stay). very quiet room, clean and big bathroom facilities. Breakfast was good, nice coffee.
