Set on a farm by Vatnajökull National Park, just 1969 feet from the Ring Road, is this family-owned guest house. It offers a furnished terrace and an on-site restaurant with bar.

Room was nice and cozy. We were able to check ourselves in near midnight and we were just there to sleep for 6-7 hours before heading out for our next adventure.

Located 2.5 mi off Route 1, this family-run guest house is 25 minutes’ drive from Höfn. Set on a sheep farm, it provides simple, fresh rooms, a home-cooked breakfast and a dinner buffet with lamb.

Oh my gosh where do I even begin! This guesthouse was an absolute delight to stay at and thank god we had it for 2 nights! We were booked in one of their cabins overlooking a field and the mountains and it was just a dream. We would wake up to birds in the field chatting away and get to see the beautiful sunrise on the horizon and on the mountains. The location was beautiful with 360 uninterrupted sights. Their dining room is full of windows so every breakfast and dinner you can see the beautiful landscape while you eat. The cabin was easy to keep warm, very well insulated, and very roomy and cozy. We sat on the porch most mornings and evenings just taking it in. The staff were friendly and spoke english. The complimentary breakfast buffet was delicious and food was plentiful. Highly, highly recommend and will 100% come back again in the future.

    Everything about this guesthouse is great! The owner was icelandic and very friendly. She even let our friend to use the showers for free and sleep in her camper van on the property! The guesthouse is well equipped (2 shared bathrooms/restrooms!) and the breakfast was yummy, with homemade products. The bedroom was roomy, with comfy beds. Everything was clean and functionnal. The location is pretty quiet and the view is nice over the fields. You can see the ocean in the distance.

    Great, cozy hotel in a beautiful and serene area. We booked the room with shared bathroom. The room and the bathroom were both neat and clean. Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Great place to stay near Fjallsárlón, Diamond beach and Jökulsárlón (30 minutes away).

    The location of the hotel is great when you want to see the glaciers and diamond beach. Staff was friendly and the breakfast was very good. We were lucky to see the northern lights and the almost non existent light pollution helped in getting the best view.

    The rooms are spacious and the hotel plot is big. Its decor has some style, with some vintages clothes and items on display in the hall. Some sheeps grazed on the grassland outside my room window and it's fun to see them there. Breakfast was good.

    The whole experience, location and quality of the rooms. Also, having the breakfast on the location with local produce topped it all. If returning to Iceland, definitely one of the spots to book again.
