Hótel Valaskjálf

8/10 Good

"nice place to stay"

Lake Hotel Gistihusid Egilsstadir

10/10 Excellent

"Dinner was delicious and so was the breakfast. It feels like a resort with a wonderful view of the lake from our room. Staff was very helpful."

Guesthouse Svartiskógur Egilsstaðir

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very comfortable with a full kitchen! Parking was right outside our room. Camping spots are available as well. Property is not where hotels.com states. It is a good 30-40 minutes away from the town, off the main road and then about 5 miles on a dirt road. I had to call for directions because the map on hotels.com took me to an empty farm field. Restaurant is available but make sure to come early as it’s served until 8:30pm. Actually everything in town closes early. So don’t wait to eat in this town if you’re coming in late. Couldn’t find any food at 9:30pm. Breakfast was small and just cold items. Staff was great. Good property overall!"

Media Luna Guesthouse

8/10 Good

"This property in such a beautiful spot has quite not enough equipment in the kitchen. One pann a couple of pots and very dated cooker.Ok for plates and cutlery. Also room could be not to bad if in the bathroom was at least a little shelf or somewhere to put on your cloth or towel 🤔"

Seyðisfjörður Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"We travelled mid- September. We really enjoyed our stay. The location was very convenient for walking the town or accessing hiking trails. The view from the guesthouse is fabulous. The host was on site when we arrived and back again in the morning which was nice. The kitchen and eating area were fabulous. We had the opportunity to do our laundry. We had a room upstairs and there was one WC and a separate shower area. There was a second shower downstairs. Bonus points for a great coffee machine so I could start the day with a cappuccino."

Lyngás Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Très bien ! J’ai apprécié ma nuit. Nous avons pu cuisiner un excellent repas!"

Lindarholl Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place owner cooked us breakfast and she was delightful. Off beat and track slept like a baby. No shoe policy is perfect same as at home"

Hotel 1001 Nott

8/10 Good

"The hotel was super clean, comfortable and the staff friendly. The breakfast was good but dinner was not so good. Not worth what they are charging. I recommend staying here but eat dinner somewhere else."

Alfheimar Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had a wonderful stay! The staff were very polite and attentive, and the room was spotless with a stunning view. The breakfast offered a great variety and was delicious. The only downside is that the property is a bit far from the main road, but overall, we highly recommend it!"
