The location is great with a supermarket right across the street, and the room is quite spacious.

Highly recommended for the fans of the movie “the shining”!!
This student dormitory magically transforms during the summer in an expensive hotel which resembles the hotel from Stanley Cubrik’s movie “the shining”. In every step inside the building you get the feeling that Jack Nicholson is watching you and is ready to hunt you yielding an axe in his hand and take your head!!
The hotel is close enough to some places of interest which is good.
The personnel is very polite and really helpful.

The room is large, each bed has a bedside table to put things, and there is space to open the suitcase. The living room and dining room are moderately spaced and very comfortable to sit in. The entrance hall is large and has a shoe chair, which is very convenient. The bathroom is also large and well-equipped with towels for wiping your hands. The best thing is that there is a washing machine and indoor clothes drying rack. There is also parking space outdoors. It is close to the airport and the town. It is a great accommodation.

Amazing location and a really cute farmhouse! Friendly hosts and a generally nice environment to be in. The place was clean with decent cooking facilities available as there is nothing close by to get food. Would highly recommend!

Everything is perfect. Despite being in a rather secluded location, my family and i absolutely love the house. The owner, helga, introduced his dogs to us which we loved!! If you love animals, this is a dream!

Remote farm on site with hosts in a stunning area with lake view.
There is so much to do here, using Egilsstadir as a base.
There is so much to do here, using Egilsstadir as a base. An absolute MUST is a soak in the VÖK Baths, a mere 2km out of town.
Day trips out to the Puffin colony at Bakkafjördur, or the very cute harbour town of Seydisfjordur, for example. A trip around to Hallormsstadur as well as further day trips north are next on our list.
We had great wood-fired pizza at Askur Pizzeria and brilliant coffees at Tehusia Hostel, which had a great buzz-y vibe.

An unusual place to be sure. Not too "in yer face" , nor up it's own pipe. Just about right. Superb geolocation. Car necessary to fully appreciate the opportunity on offer. Highly recommend to independent traveller.

We stayed at the Berjaya overnight as we were driving the N1 ring road, we visited the Vok baths, an absolute must if you are visiting Egilsstadir.
It’s only a 5 minute drive from the hotel it was wonderful.

This was a great stopping point after driving the eastern Fjords on a Sunday. They had a couple places that were open where we could eat, get gas and groceries. This town was a nice place to stay after driving through many of the lovely villages along the coast and before heading to Husavik. You're also close to Hengifoss and not far from Studlagil Canyon, though we only drove halfway down the road before we gt nervous with the icy road right on the side of a cliff.

We loved the tourist info center there along the lake with the Gunnar Gunnerson museum and restaurant. We had a great buffet meal there. We enjoyed the tourist rest area because the lady there spent time with us as we looked around at the exhibits. It was an unexpected surprise.

Good hotel overall.
Locally, we went to Vik Baths, very good experience.
On our 10 day driving the Ring Road, we had already visited the Blue Lagoon. Vik Baths was an alternative to the Blue Lagoon, well worth visiting.

Nice hotel in a very convenient location. Tidy and comfortable rooms. Friendly staff. Good views from the rooms , we could see the lake from the room clearly. They serve good food in the restaurant. Delicious breakfast with lots of choices. Overall a night very well spent in Egilsstadir.
We stayed 2 nights on our Iceland ring road trip. Use the hotel as a base for local travel. Check in was very helpful. Room was clean and tidy. Opted for paided breakfast, which was great value with very good selections.
Beautiful, charming small hotel in a great setting and views, right by a lake - one of the best places we stayed in our ring-road tour. Rooms are larger than normal in Iceland. Great restaurant (dinner and breakfast) too.
