Everything was clean and the breakfast was good. But the bunk beds were incredibly creaky and at this price I would have expected a better quadruple room. I would happily stay again though.

That was one of my favorite guesthouses during our round-trip around iceland. Thora is very nice, we had a yummy breakfast in the morning and compared to the rest of the guesthouses, we had good walls, didn't wake up from our neighbors. A really nice place to stay at. Would definitely recommend.

We stayed for one night as part of our South Iceland road trip. Comfortable and clean rooms, good beds and even Netflix provided on the in-room television. We enjoyed really great food cooked in-house (both dinner and breakfast) which was delicious and authentically local. Staff were friendly, location was ideal. Access to the rooms was easy, being able to park right next to the door (useful when carrying bags in the snow).

There are many hiking trails and the staff at the visitors...
There are many hiking trails and the staff at the visitors center was very helpful. We choose a 3 hours hike - to the waterfalls and a viewpoint of the glacier. It was so beautiful! it took us closer to 4 hours but this included a long stop at the view point. You don't see that many bushes and greenery in other places in Iceland - so it was also very unique. On the way back we saw some beautiful birds that stayed with us for a little white before they disappeared into the bushes.
Be aware of the steep climbing that is required. However, all paths are well maintained and marked.
Everything about this guesthouse is great!
The owner was icelandic and very friendly. She even let our friend to use the showers for free and sleep in her camper van on the property!
The guesthouse is well equipped (2 shared bathrooms/restrooms!) and the breakfast was yummy, with homemade products.
The bedroom was roomy, with comfy beds. Everything was clean and functionnal.
The location is pretty quiet and the view is nice over the fields. You can see the ocean in the distance.
Lovely family owned business! Everyone who works there was extremely welcoming, especially the receptionist who told us the history of the family run farm and hotel and about the decorations at the establishment. The meals were incredible, using as many farm to table ingredients as possible, and the rooms were big and comfortable. This is a great hotel to stay at with a great location- we were able to see the northern lights at night during our winter stay. Couldn’t recommend enough!
We had a lovely stay at Skalafell! Owned and managed by a welcoming local family, we stayed in one of the units facing the sheep meadow and loved it. Breakfasts were very nice and we had delicious dinners on two nights. The best part is that the guesthouse is located at the trailhead of a loop trail that takes you up close to one of the glaciers at Vatnajokull National Park, which we hiked one morning for an unforgettable experience!
The house is extremely clean, nicely decorated and furnished with new and beautiful pieces of furniture. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable.
The host are kind, available and extremely helpful. The atmosphere in the house is lively and cozy at the same time.
The homemade breakfast is delicious and filling. Many typical Icelandic dishes available.
Well maintained guesthouse. It looked brand new when we arrived autumn 2021. The traditional corrugated iron outside suggests that the property is an old farm, but the inside is completely renovated and modern.
Very clean room
Good breakfast included
Affordable and reasonable price in expensive Iceland
Our host, Jan, was friendly and very helpful. He told us about a great 3 hour hike that started right at the guest house. Although the location is about 30 minutes from Hofn there is a hotel with a good restaurant nearby. Our room had a lovely view and the shared bathrooms were spacious.
Really nice hotel situated in a quiet place in the South East of Iceland close to the Jökulsárlón ice lake and diamond beach and the mulagljufur canyon.
Great choice of food for breakfast, coffee always available at the entrance. Bedroom clean and spacious with TV.
Great, cozy hotel in a beautiful and serene area. We booked the room with shared bathroom. The room and the bathroom were both neat and clean. Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Great place to stay near Fjallsárlón, Diamond beach and Jökulsárlón (30 minutes away).
Nice location for exploring the South of Iceland. Only 30 minutes from Hofn with shops and restaurants and half an hour from Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach. Nice guesthouse with nice staff, good breakfast and comfortable rooms.
This is a family-run hotel in a great location for touring round Iceland. there’s a great choice for breakfast and the option to eat in the restaurant for lunch and supper.
Spacious room and comfortable bed. Professional staff and rich breakfast with many options (gluten free bread, just ask).
We saw the northern lights right behind the hotel
