The Coffee House

Selfoss

The rooms in the hostel are equipped with a coffee machine. With a shared bathroom fitted with a shower and a hairdryer, rooms at The Coffee House also boast free WiFi. At the accommodation rooms are fitted with bed linen and towels. The bedrooms were small and cozy, just perfect for the single bed I had. The common space was comfy, well lit, and had a kitchen stocked with dishes. The whole facility was very clean, bathroom too. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, even let the guests say hello to their horses. Overall a great experience and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a small, cozy stay at a farm.

Selfoss Hostel

Selfoss

Rooms at Selfoss Hostel have views of either the garden or Ingolfsfjall Mountain. Each has an in-room wash basin and access to shared bathroom and kitchen facilities.

The Bobby Fischer Chess Museum is 1 minutes’ walk away. Selfoss Golf Centre is 1.1 km from the hostel. Perfect place to rest if you are traveling in the area without having to go sell a kidney ehhehe. Staff is nice and helpful. Thank you Alda for the help with my mistake booking the wrong dates and letting me sleep for 1 more hour :) Spacious room with a double bed. Nice views to the neighbourhood. Sink in the room. Very confortable bed! Was sharing 2 full bathrooms with 4 or 5 rooms, everything was nice and clean. Doors can be a little bit noisy but after everyone went to bed is complete silence. Highly recomend Selfoss Hostel, i will come back for sure. Very good value for money!
