These units were interesting to stay in -- very comfy and BIG windows! We were glad they had curtains as the sunlight was intense. The area around the hotel was awesome for going on short and scenic walks. There is a restaurant on the property and that was a nice place for dinner. I don't think there were many other options. We also had breakfast there too.

Pleasant little country town with supermarket so easy to get your own supplies for cooking in the well equipped kitchen. High up on the hill with a good view of the harbour.
Beautiful views of the sea, especially sunrise. Great mountain views. It was uncharacteristically cold and windy so no hiking but trails exist. Easy access to the national park with black beaches, lighthouses, lava tubes and volcano views. Nothing open in winter, you'll have to drive to Arnarstapi (5 minutes) or 30 min around the peninsula for any food or fuel.

Great location to explore the peninsula and lots of walks...
Great location to explore the peninsula and lots of walks from Hellnar along the coast. Eating options are quite limited but the food at our hotel was excellent so we were happy to eat there each night.
The hotel was located conveniently at the halfway point of the Snæfellsness Peninsula. The staff was friendly, the room was clean, linen and towels as well as 2-in-1 body wash and shampoo provided. We took the breakfast option and the breakfast was awesome! They also have the option for a picnic take-out which is what we did so that we could eat a lunch later in the day. It's 2 sandwiches, 1 juice and 1 chocolate for $19.
The location is great. The town of Hellnar is little more than a hotel, these accommodations, an old church and access to a wonderful seaside trail that starts at a charming little cafe perfect for a post hike beer or soup and bread. If the weather cooperates you’ll have great views of the glacier out one window and ocean out the other.
The location was amazing, the place was clean, and it was super quiet in Hellnar. It's also walking distance to the "hotel" in Hellnar, and they have a very good restaurant.
Hellnar was a perfect base for us to do some day trips around the peninsula. It's also close to some of the popular attractions.
The staff were amazing, kind and helpful.
The location was perfect, and the views from the common areas were breathtaking. All of the major sites on the peninsula are a short drive from the hotel.
Parking was easy.
Dinner was exceptional! We felt like we were eating at a 5 star restaurant.
Nice, simple room. Comfortable bed. Small bathroom, but very clean. Place to hang clothes. Wonderful restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Very nice service! Easy check-in. Parking right in front of hotel. Lovely location with view of water and nice trail right behind hotel.
