Hotel Hótel Eldhestar
Vellir, 816 Hveragerði, Iceland – Great location - show map
The best thing is the hot tub, which can be used until 10 pm. It's a shared hot tub though, but we had it in front of our room, which was nice. The rooms are big, breakfast is really good and varied, and the staff is super friendly.
GermanyCool experience staying at a horse farm and doing one of the horse tours. The facility was very clean and the staff very helpful. Very close to a Viking restaurant as well. Great breakfast!
United States of AmericaRoom was bigger than expected. Very clean, breakfast was great. Good spot to start golden circle trip after coming back from the south coast. Wish we could have spent some time with the horses they had there. Would definitely stay again!

United States of AmericaWe loved the property, seeing all of the horses. It was fun for the kids to see. The breakfast is the morning was great. The rooms weren’t anything f special in the guest house, but exactly what we expected and paid for. The hotel portion looked like it was nicer.
United States of AmericaThe breakfast was simple. The rooms were comfortable and the staff was great
United States of AmericaVery big room with a beautiful view. Comfortable single beds so we didn’t have to share. Excellent free breakfast. Free hot chocolate/coffee in the lobby.
