Lock in a great price for Malarhorn Guesthouse – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

Comfortable, large rooms, we really enjoyed the small veranda wit table and chairs - having a glass of wine and planning next day trips.

Andra, Latvia

Breakfast was fantastic, the room was big enough for 4 of us, very close tomthe pool (unfortunately we came too late to use it)

Jacek, Poland

This is regarding the boat tour we took from the guesthouse to Grímsey Island to see puffins. I twisted my ankle badly during the hike on the island and had to stay behind with my husband while the group moved on with the guide. Shortly later, the captain of the boat came to the rescue. This strong and very helpful fisherman helped me get back to the boat after a very slow and long hike. They were very patient and caring.

Eva, United States of America

Our apartment was huge although used minimally - a TV would have been a great addition in the apartment. Rooms were clean and due to the location, very quiet.

Emma, United Kingdom

Really comfortable, quiet room, facing over the lawn and the sea (I would request one that doesn't face the car park). Great location, just a couple of hundred metres from the public hot pots. The restaurant is excellent, though like most restaurants in Iceland, very expensive

Stephen, France

An incedible position, in front of Grimsey island, few steps from the public bath and very good to seea midnight sun directly from the room! Our room respect the description and was comfortable and cozy. Check-in and parking are very simple. We try the restaurant and it was a good service, included the breakfast.

Simo_brk, Italy

Good location, hot pools a few minutes from the house, nice and friendly staff. Our room was clean and comfortable. It is a great place to escape the busy parts of Iceland. Recommended!

Tereza, Czech Republic

Nice and clean. Near water and tubs. Nice kitchen.

Marcin, Poland

Location was amazing We ask for an earlier chek in and we did it Staff very kind

Elena, Italy

Lovely welcome. Nice views. Everything was closed when we were there, but we could cook in the kitchen. Nice and clean with good beds. The room was a little snug. But the price was snug as well. We had a lovely time.

What Travelers Love About This Location

“Very clean, new ,warm and cozy for 5 people. Beautifully designed great workmanship. Lovely host cleaned our fish for us- small problem with charges for breakfast easily resolved- needs more cook wear in communal kitchen area is the only negative and our hostess loaned us her own personal cookware- very gracious xox 😘😘”

Phyllis

“Drangsnes is a very peaceful town, the guy who met us was very helpful and friendly. He showed us around. The room had good view of the ocean, just a beautiful drive to get to this place. Wish we could have stayed longer, will do next visit for sure and Malarhorn GH will be the place.”

눉Location- as others have mentioned it wasn’t really a destination, it was a 30 min drive to the nearest supermarket (petrol station); being reminded of this before arrival would have been helpful. Tours were not running to the schedule advertised so we missed out on going to Grimsey which is the reason we chose this apartment.
눇Our apartment was huge although used minimally - a TV would have been a great addition in the apartment. Rooms were clean and due to the location, very quiet.

눉There was some confusion for checking in as no one was there. Our calls wouldn't go through to the contact number left on the door - not uncommon with our cells there. Luckily, we saw a van with the name on a driveway. The owner's. They were great and helpful when we came to their private home for help. Just lucky we saw them. Still a great stay.
눇It was a very nice place. We were last minute that day as the roads were closed and we were unable to reach our previously booked accommodation. Very affordable and very nice.

눉The only con was that another couple staying in the unit with us was not very friendly (possibly just didn’t like folks from the states). The man didn’t acknowledge me at all while moving me all around the kitchen while I was cooking until I just left my skillet and walked out of the kitchen until he was done looking through the cabinets. Body language is universal and I got the message he was sending. My point is, if you’re uncomfortable being close to strangers then upgrade to the private rooms! They’re BEAUTIFUL! Totally stunning!
눇The lady who let me in didn’t speak much English but was very kind and friendly. I called the check in early and they were gracious enough to let us in. The unit was very clean, well stocked, warm, and gorgeous. We loved our stay!
