The location was amazing, so close to the Skogafoss waterfall. Our rooms were comfortable and well stocked with clean towels and a gown incase we wanted to use the hot tub.
The beds were very comfortable.
It’s a self check in hotel and the key code access worked smoothly for the outer door but only one of our rooms. We called Hotel Skogafoss (as instructed) and the staff answered the phone promptly and solved the problem easily.
Complimentary hot drinks were available in the reception are which was a very welcome touch.
Breakfast was a good selection and the staff helpful, cooking more eggs and bacon on request as guests arrived to eat. There was homemade bread.
We ate a good dinner at the nearby Hotel Skogafoss.
This hotel is in southern Iceland, 9 km from Vík í Myrdal. It offers free WiFi in public areas and in the rooms.

The view from our room over the glacier was amazing! Views from the restaurant over the Atlantic Ocean were also superb. The restaurant food was great. Highly recommend.

The house and room felt very warm and comfortable; a home away from home feeling. It was beautiful and very quiet in the house when we arrived so we didn't want to make a sound! But the instructions were very clear and the room was easy to find. It was very clean, and very cozy feeling. It was fairly well equipped. We also made use of the shared kitchen in a nearby building and it looked quite unique. It was a large common area with a variety of games to play and the shared kitchen was huge and very well equipped. When we left the next day we had a chat with the host and she was extremely friendly and helpful. Overall highly recommended!

The apartment is well-located for local tourist spots and 10mins drive from Vik town. The apartment is spacious, light, clean and well-maintained, with good hot water and heating. We were marooned indoors for most of two days owing to terrible weather and were grateful to have such a nice apartment.

Loved our stay in this spacious cottage with views from every window. Good cooking facilities, fridge, easy parking next to cottage. Went horse riding with Alana onto black sand beach, heading directly for Dyrholaey. It was truly a highlight of our stay. Book thru Mid Hvoll. Would stay again.

It was nice that the accommodation was very clean and quiet. The landlord also welcomed me kindly.
Sólheimahjáleiga Guesthouse is a cozy and lovely country house. We asked to give us a room with a mountain view, and the very friendly host gave us a room with beautiful windows with soothing views. We also had dinner there and every course was delicious and homemade. Same with the good and plentiful breakfast. At night we saw our first Northern Lights in Iceland and this place will remain in our hearts for that. For me it is a 10.
The staff was super nice. We really appreciated that there is a possibility to have dinner in the hotel's restaurant, as the location is, honestly, pretty much in the middle of nowhere (this is not a con, we were looking for that kind of place!). The room was clean and comfortable for the two of us. The location was ideal for visiting the black sand beach, as you can be there before the crowds start arriving.
We had a Great stay in Sólheimahjáleiga Guesthouse. The room was nice and clean. Timeless atmosphere and good position close to Reynisfjara Beach. We had dinner and breakfast in the restaurant, both very good and rich with local products (they have animals and Vegetable in the farm). The staff was friendly and helpful (the owner speaks italian perfectly 😉). The best stay in our trip! Really recommended!
Always wanted to stay at a place like this. Perfect location, out of nowhere, dreamy farmhouse vibe but it is actually fully functioning farm/ hotel/restaurant! Loved the goats sound to wake me up in the morning and two lovely dogs my daughter loved to hang out with. It just adds so much to beautiful Iceland trip. I’ll only stay at guesthouses if I ever return to Iceland again.
We stayed at 11 different properties during our trip to Iceland and this location was among my favorites. The design of the room was thoughtful and what made this property very comfortable was a shared kitchen/lounge that was furnished with anything that would be needed to make a quick meal/snack. The hotel was very clean and the continental breakfast was good.
I'd say this was the best place we stayed while in Iceland. The staff was great- kind and accommodating.
We stayed in the guest house with a common area which was a nice change of pace. It was homey and had lots of information about Iceland, board games, and a little kitchenette.
The complimentary breakfast was good and some homemade items included.
Beautiful location underneath the glacier. Sheep in the fields. Very bucolic and close to Vik area sites (Solheimatunga glacier, Dyrholaey viewpoint, Reynisfjara black sand beach etc.) Amazing cleanliness, and wonderful meal made from local farm ingredients. Wonderful breakfast. Also, for dinner try the Icelandic lamb raised on the farm! So good.
We enjoyed our stay at Sólheimahjáleiga Guesthouse. The breakfast was delicious, the room was clean and big enough for us and our luggage. The room was cleaned daily and fresh towels were provided each day. Towels, linen and a 2-in-1 shampoo and body wash were provided. You could adjust the room and washroom heating to a temperature you desired.
Beautiful place. Remote but yet close to Vik. Good base to explore other places like Skaftafell, Jokusarlon...
Comfortable rooms. Very clean. Although the bathrooms were shared, it didn't feel shared at all. The staff were friendly and the dinner was just yum!
Highly recommend. We miss this place already!
