This guest house is 8 km from Skogar and 10 minutes’ drive from the Seljalandsfoss Waterfall. It offers tastefully decorated rooms with Eyjafjöll Mountain views.

We stayed at Welcome Edinborg during our Iceland trip and were impressed by its unique charm! Nestled along the Ring Road, it’s a peaceful retreat with a cozy, authentic vibe—perfect for resting amidst Iceland’s wild beauty. The rooms were comfy, and the mountain views were stunning.

Situated 2 km from Reynishverfi Beach, this family-run guest house is 8 km from Vik village. It offers basic rooms with a seating area and work desk. Some rooms feature sea views.

Super clean and well presented with impressive sunset views of Black Sand Beach. Rooms are super clean and comfortable with shared facilities. A caution to light sleepers; rooms are not soundproof and footsteps of fellow guests and doors closing can easily be heard, along with traffic from the road meant difficulty getting a restful sleep. My deep-sleeping companion slept fine though!

    The guesthouse is a former boarding school and has plenty of character. It is in a quiet location near waterfalls and hiking trails. The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable about the area and happy to help. The breakfast buffet was good and there was a common room with a fridge, kettle and microwave for guests to use.

    Nice reception area with helpful staff. Free hot drink facilities in reception. Rooms were bigger than expected with a wet room shower. Bed was comfy. Had the icelandic lamb for dinner in their restaurant which was delicious, cost £26 but I think that's good for Iceland! Quiet location and plenty of parking. Breakfast was basic but adequate - cereal, dried fruits, jam, peanut butter, cream cheese, cold cuts, boiled egg salad, breads, fresh fruit, juices & hot drinks. Fine for 1 night.

    Great location, Skogafoss visible from the property literally minutes away, beatiful surroundings. Great base for hiking the waterfalls way. Nice and clean property, rooms are spacious, living and dining facilities are good. Check-in was automated. Overall loved staying here for the peace & quiet and convenience, with attractions being a short walk away.
