Located at the foot of the impressive Vatnajökull glacier, Gerði Guesthouse offers country-style living in the unique Icelandic landscape in Höfn í Hornafirði.

Good stay in Gerdi Guesthouse. We were arriving late and messaged reception ahead to pre order dinner from the restaurant, which they very kindly accommodated (and warmed up for us when we arrived) - thank you Lucie for helping with that! Our room was basic but comfortable, although the description said there was a TV and there was not. Location is remote but that was what we wanted. Very close to the 1 road and 5-10 mins drive from the Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach. Saw the Northern Lights from outside our room which was amazing. Only negative was cost - it's expensive for what it is. But it was in line with other prices we paid in Iceland. Breakfast also not included in the rate we booked - for the money it should have been.

Set on a farm by Vatnajökull National Park, just 600 metres from the Ring Road, is this family-owned guest house. It offers a furnished terrace and an on-site restaurant with bar.

Very big room, decent breakfast, and very polite staff. Great for people who seeks peace and quite. Bonus: Super cute dog Saga that you can hang out with, even take her for a hike to the mountain.
