Great place
Front desk staff very friendly and accomodating. Breakfast was good and put out gluten free food for my food allergy. Welcoming lobby with coffee, tea and snacks. Beds were very comfy and bathroom was spacious.

It was such a lovely stay. The horses were a highlight of our trip. Upon having to leave a bit early the staff made us breakfast bags for the next day. That was so wonderful and ended up being our biggest meal of the next day due to travel issues. Highly recommend and wish we could of stayed longer.

Great property for one night stay. The staff is very friendly and the free breakfast was great with lots of options. We also ate dinner at the in-hotel restaurant—it was delicious and we particularly enjoyed the dessert.

Highly recommend this property especially if you LOVE horses. Staff was so helpful and check in was so easy. The beds were so comfortable and was a great stay for our family with small kids. The free breakfast had a great selection and their property is absolutely beautiful! I highly recommend this property especially for families with small children.

Very limited dinner and breakfast options for vegetarian and vegan. We ended up paying for an extra room even though my family members were comfortable to stay in the same room, this costs us extra money.

Overnight stay at Hotel Eldhestar
We enjoyed our one-night stay at Hotel Eldhestar. Our room was clean, staff were friendly, and the overall atmosphere was very cheerful. We went riding the next morning (my husband is not a rider!), which was also fun.

Our room was cold. The heat did not work despite claims by the staff that by turning up the thermostat, the floor would heat up. It did not. We had to leave the door open so that the heat from the hallway would warm the room but this was limited since everyone who walked by would look into our room. We were located as the first room down the hallway next to the lobby.

Sehr freundlicher Empf, gute Information über das Hotel. Das Frühstück war reichhaltig. Für uns war die Lage ideal für Ausflüge nach Thingvellir und zum Gullfossvegur.
