    Good location to visit the eastern part. The hotelroom was okay and the toilet and showers in the hallway were clean. It was nice that we could use the communal spaces and there was free coffee and tea. Breakfast was really nice!

The Eyjólfsstaðir Guesthouse in Héraði is surrounded by much more beautiful nature. Here, people rest well in the stillness of the world.
We are Joseph and Karen Robertson, and I have the privilege of welcoming guests here at Eyjólfsstaðir for the second year in a row. It is extremely rewarding to meet the guests and do everything possible to make them feel as welcome as possible
Here are hiking trails, bathing pools, golf course, mountaineering, rivers and waterfalls.
