Smartly designed and maintained interior, comfortable beds, convenient bathrooms and breakfast room which is small for the house but if one can arrange its shared use with other guests, no problem there. Nice coffee on the ground floor unfortunately opening as we were leaving at 10:30. As is usual in Iceland you don't meet the host (all is beautifully informal) but feel cared for anyway.
Featuring river views, Hidden Cottages in Kvíabekkur offers accommodation and a garden. This property offers access to a patio and free private parking.

The spacious, clean and comfortable cottage was great! We loved the quiet location in the beautiful green surrounding with mountain and waterfall views. The hot tub, well equipped kitchen, very good beds were great. The owners are very kind and offer good communication and great service. This was the best stay for us in Iceland!

The bed was one of the most comfortable of our week. The cabin is cute and very well presented and we enjoyed the outside shower, especially as there was a room with towels and heating and a guitar if you fancy having a strum whilst lounging in your undies. Highly recommend the Herring Museum, it was fabulous and great value for money
And the bakery for brekkie

This is simply the best place I ever booked through booking.com. The location is amazing, the apartment is extremely nice, kitchen well equipped, and there is even a hot tub from which you can look at the sunset or the northern lights. Would recommend for sure. Host was also very kind

This was the only place (except in Reykjavik) where we met the host. I appreciated that. Of course we traveled for the scenery, but I also wanted to meet Icelanders. Olafsfjordur was also close enough to visit the surrounding area, and, gee, the tunnels were an experience also.

Looking back, I feel lucky that we ended (pretty much by chance) in Ólafsfjörður and not somewhere in the south. Driving is slow in Iceland so even just getting to Akureyri was a substantial trip but that's a constant in Iceland. Knowing what I know now, it was as good a base as any, and better than most. On our way back to the airport when we stopped by the locations of the so-called Golden Circle, with their hundreds of buses and their crowds, it felt bizzare. The main attraction of Iceland is that you can take a hike among the hills and, with just a little luck, have the whole valley for yourself (not counting the sheep). The neighboring Dalvik offers great horse rides (do look at Tvistur), the ferry to Grimsey, and more.
We arrived earlier, so the staff made sure our room was made ready. Nice room, comfy bed, beautiful sitting area to dine in (no restaurant, but make yourself).
The hotel really goes above and beyond, they're so customer friendly oriented! They offer so many free things to use, for example: They have a pooltable you can use for free, even kayaks! You can grab fresh towels whenever you want and if you want new linen on your bed you only need to ask.. Also free coffee machine.
It is a wonder place. The settlement, Ólafsfjörður, is an amazingly located alone, but the small wooden houses add to the experience. It was everything and even more. The hot tub is a must!
