Overlooking Höfn harbour and with views towards the Vatnajökull Glacier, this hostel features a guest kitchen and laundry facilities. The staff can help arrange glacier tours and well as boat and snowmobile trips.

Everything was very clean and tidy. The room was nice and the bed was comfy. The WiFi worked well. There were coffee, tea, hot chocolate and cookies in the kitchen for free all the time. All in all, very good value for money for this part of Iceland.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Huge hostel, very good value for money. Bathrooms/ showers are spacious and clean. Kitchen has many cooking opportunities, plenty of clean towels and even a dishwasher! Also the girl at the reception was super friendly and upgrades us to a triple room so we could have a double bed 🥰. Laundry and Dryer costs 2500 isk - one of the cheapest options we‘ve encountered on our 3 week trip around Iceland.

    Friendly, functional and very clean hostel. I stayed in a dormitory with six beds and everything went perfectly with the other guests. Very good kitchen, with all available. They also had coffee, tea, chocolate and cookies for guests. It was a very nice experience.

    This is the most incredible hostel I've ever stayed in. Everything was impeccably clean, the furniture new and bunk beds were beyond comfortable. Bathroom and shower facilities shared but also extremely clean and exceeded our expectations. The kitchen was immaculate and the overall atmosphere perfect for our stay.

    Everything that you can need in hostel is there, plus it looks like it's brand new. It even smells nicely. The staff was very helpful and informative. That was the best hostel I stayed in Iceland and almost the cheapest one.
