Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
Elsa is an excellent host! Rooms are very quiet, clean and cozy, equipped with tv and beautiful window views overlooking the green area around. Honestly, if I’m back in Iceland I’ll make sure to make a stop. Also, after I accidentally left my glasses at the accommodation Elsa kindly coordinated with other guests to help me get them back. Forever grateful for her patience and help throughout!
Where to start...the cozy room, clean accomodation, 2 bathrooms that you only have to share with 2 other rooms, well equipped shared kitchen, use of the sauna and hot pot, nice location BUT most important the host Elsa is the best! I could stay an extra night because of the bad weather and she was kind enough to get me back on my feet to continue my road trip (driving in Iceland is quite the adventure). Best guesthouse I´ve been in!
Lovely, clean rooms. Elsa is a great host, and her baked bread for breakfast was a lovely surprise. The kitchen was fantastic and had everything needed .
We had a very good stay! The cottage, although a bit small for 4 people, was nice and comfortable. Elsa was a great host, she received us even later than expected, showed us everything and even offered us homemade bread and more for breakfast. :)
All in all, a very good experience that we can recommend!
You do not want to miss out on this one! Such a lovely guesthouse!
Great location, very spacious, comfortable, beautiful rooms. Very nice and clean shared bathroom & kitchen with everything you need. Super friendly, accommodating hostess.
Everything. Elsa was lovely. Such a great host. The room was very quaint and so comfortable. Although breakfast was not included we were brought fresh bread in the morning and could help ourselves to a selection of jams and coffees. Nice little touch there. The location is perfect too. Not far from Egilsstaðir and close to Hengifoss. Finally, the cat jumped through the window and slept on our bed through the night. 😻😻😻
