Beautifully located in a forest area by Lake Lagarfljot, 16 mi south of Egilsstadir, is the Hotel Hallormsstadur, close to hiking trails and various recreational opportunities.

The location in the middle of the forest was incredible. We arrived in the hotel late at night kind of in emergency situation because we had a reservation in Seyðisfjörður but the road was closed because of a snow storm. We were at Vök baths trying to find a last minute room to stay immediately and it was such a relief to find this deal, just 30 minutes away from where we were. The staff was incredibly nice and the hotel is cozy.
A good location for a hassle-free holiday in Hallormsstaður, Mjóanes accommodation is a guest house surrounded by views of the lake.

Everything tbh - we were too tired after a hike to Studlagil. When we entered the property, met Elsa and checked in, I think the energy returned.
The hot tub & sauna was a gift to my tired legs. Kitchen to room, everything was designed thoughtfully from a barn to a homestay and well equipped.
Jfyi, the shower is common - but very big, spacious and clean. Hence it would not be an issue.
If weather is nice and you are lucky, you may get to see some auroras too like us 😊

The tiny house was so adorable and cozy! It was super clean and had everything we needed (we also enjoyed the cookies & wine they gave us). We’ll definitely be back for a longer stay!

The hosts/owners were friendly and welcoming. The property is exactly as pictured (though there is now some construction going on for a new building), and the rooms are clean, warm, and spacious, with breakfast included. I got a room with a view of the lake and was even able to see the Northern lights right from my window! Definitely a nice stop off the Ring Road. Would stay again.

The Hallormsstaður area is on a beautiful lake with the largest forest in Iceland nearby. Several significant waterfalls, including the 420 ft. Hengifoss, are minutes away by car. And yet the area is just 15 minutes from Egilstaðir and all its city amenities. Really an ideal location for exploring Eastern Iceland!

The location of the hotel with a view on the lake is amazing. From the a la carte Restaurant you have a great view to the sun downer over the lake.
The family room is really spacious and offers enough space for a family.
Very clean room and bath room for own use.
Quality of food was good. Buffet and a la zarte restaurant facilities.
Great place to stay, clean and tidy with all the facilities you need, stunning scenery off a quiet road.. you will need to bring some food with you, no shops nearby but there is a hotel/restaurant about 13km away which serves food
The hotel was located in a forest, a different view regarding the past dazs. The checkin process went fast. The room was quite spacious and we had a great view. Everything was very clean. Breakfast was OK
