Everything was clean, comfortable and enough space (even if one sleeping room was quite small, there was enough space to leave our luggage in the huge living room). The terrace with the hotpot was so great after a long day and on top polar lights in the night. The kittchen is really big and well equipped. The beds were comfortable. It has one shower and two separate toiletes, which was pleasant for a group of 6 people.

This basic guest house, just off Iceland’s Ring Road, is 5 minutes' drive from central Egilsstadir. It offers a free Egilsstadir Airport transfer service and rooms with free WiFi and a private bathroom.

Small, but very comfortable and clean. We were happy to find this little gem to stay only one night when we were stranded in the area due to severe storm recently. It would be nice to stay longer to explore around.

Looking for a cabin?

For active travelers, a chalet is a great mix of the outdoors and the snug inside. Usually fully furnished and with kitchen facilities, chalets are typically wooden and in the Alpine region of Europe, but can also be found other places in the world. Characterized by their sloped roofs, chalets can be single units or separate apartments, and are ideal for skiing vacations.

    Pleasant guesthouse in a quiet, nice location near the lake. It has 4 bedrooms and 2 shared bathrooms and it can get quite busy. The kitchen has everything you need but the common area is quite small, so hard to have more than 1 group in there.

    The guesthouse was our favourite in Iceland (out of 10 accomodations). The room was large and quiet, and the kitchen was very well furnished. Everything was extremely clean. The guesthouse is situated just outside of Egillstadir, and it was a very convenient place to sleep while travelling towards Höfn. I can recommend this place to anyone, and I would surely rebook it.
