We stayed for one night as part of our South Iceland road trip. Comfortable and clean rooms, good beds and even Netflix provided on the in-room television. We enjoyed really great food cooked in-house (both dinner and breakfast) which was delicious and authentically local. Staff were friendly, location was ideal. Access to the rooms was easy, being able to park right next to the door (useful when carrying bags in the snow).

There are many hiking trails and the staff at the visitors...
There are many hiking trails and the staff at the visitors center was very helpful. We choose a 3 hours hike - to the waterfalls and a viewpoint of the glacier. It was so beautiful! it took us closer to 4 hours but this included a long stop at the view point. You don't see that many bushes and greenery in other places in Iceland - so it was also very unique. On the way back we saw some beautiful birds that stayed with us for a little white before they disappeared into the bushes. Be aware of the steep climbing that is required. However, all paths are well maintained and marked.

- 8.4Scored 8.4Very goodRated very good· 1,553 reviewsCheck in was smooth and the front desk girl was friendly. This hotel is very desolate on a long stretch of road without anything on it. I'm not sure how far Hofn was past it as we were coming from Vik. They have a restaurant onsite that was really good. Breakfast was included and offered bacon, scrambled, and fried eggs in addition to the typical Iceland breakfast of cold cuts, cheeses, yogurts, etc. There were a few sheep milling around when we were there. They were just munching and didn't bother anyone.

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.jvi74500France
- From US$203.37 per night8.6Scored 8.6FabulousRated fabulous· 730 reviewsWe had a lovely stay at Skalafell! Owned and managed by a welcoming local family, we stayed in one of the units facing the sheep meadow and loved it. Breakfasts were very nice and we had delicious dinners on two nights. The best part is that the guesthouse is located at the trailhead of a loop trail that takes you up close to one of the glaciers at Vatnajokull National Park, which we hiked one morning for an unforgettable experience!MarcUnited States

The sitting areas with many couches and different seating areas have a homey feel, encouraging one to feel at ease as though they had a living room. The breakfast is varied enough for everyone and the bread was fresh daily.mimi remediosSingapore
