Hótel Stadarborg

The good: Excellent service and friendly staff. The location is ideal if you're traveling the eastern fjords and need a place to stay along the way. Rooms are clean. Lots of electrical outlets. The bad: I'm not necessarily rating it down for this but the building is antiquated. It has some charm to it but as a result, the rooms are bit tight, and the furniture is dated. Again, this shouldn't prevent anyone from considering staying there but just a warning for someone who wants a modern hotel. The ugly: So this the only reason I can't give it a 5/5. The bathroom situation (or at least mine) is the shower isn't enclosed and shares the same floor as the rest of the room. Only thing separating it is a curtain. There's a drainage but for this type of bathroom to work effectively, the shower floor needs to be built at an angle to which the water naturally flows into it. The floor in this bathroom is flat so it ends up going everywhere. It's a first world problem, but ultimately you'll want to have slippers because the entire bathroom floor will stay wet until it has time to dry.

Cabin was quaint, but tight and awkward, the hotel is pretty remote, not walkable to anywhere and no where near the ocean as the pictures seem to indicate

Freindly and accommadating.

The owner was very friendly and the food was delicious

Very bad value for the money. The room was run down and looked worse than in the pictures but it was the condition of the bathroom that was the real problem there. A fixed shower like in a pool from the 70s, so dirty with limescale the water was barely dripping. It was impossible to take a shower. There were no nightstands by the bed, WiFi didn't work and there was a loud noise coming from adjacent loundry room. Beware, the restaurant menu item "skyr with bluberries" is a supermarket blueberry flavoured skyr covered with milk. For 2k... The rest of the dinner was tasty. Breakfast was basic. It seems to be a place ran by a family trying to make a living, so I didn't want to make a fuss but I definitely felt taken advantage of and I wouldn't stay there again.

amazing service on the way , was nice and cossy good breakfast

A very nice place to stay. Staff goes out of their way to ensure all needs are met. Good food.

We picked this hotel as it was on route for our ring road tour. The hotel is an old concrete school converted into rooms with two wooden cabins in the grounds. The location is stunning and the small village is only 10 minutes drive away. I’d tried to e mail before arrival but never got a reply but on arrive it seems the staff are Spanish with no English spoken which probably explains the lack of response. The dining room was closed as the windows were being repaired but we found great pizza in the local cafe. Breakfast wasn’t included in our stay and the language barrier meant we didn’t find out if it was available and the price. The cabin was fine and warm the bathroom was as you’d expect tiny and needed a climb over the toilet to enter the shower. Friendly staff but the lack of communication let the stay down slightly. Handy if you are on the highway 1 route.

Great property and chalet. The person at the reception and the lady during breakfast were very warm and receptive. Breakfast had sufficient options and the property has lots of open area, a perfect place to choose whenever in the region and trying to take a break from the ring road

It’s no doubt for the highest score of 10/10 with the friendly employees and an amazing breakfast. Highly recommend for your stay if you are looking for a hotel with high value what you paid.
