Guesthouse Básar
Arctic Circle, 611 Grímsey, Iceland – Excellent location – show map
It as an unforgettable experience. Gagga was a fantastic host who made sure we had the best time possible in Grímsey, despite being there for a short period of time in the winter. She knew every detail about the Iceland, showed us around, and was kind enough to find food for dinner since the town restaurant was closed when we arrived. The house was gorgeous, with a fantastic modern kitchen and a gorgeous dining room full of pictures of Grímsey. Internet was exceptional and the breafast was huge and outstanding. This is the part of my trip to Iceland that I remember the most. Totally recommended.
