Guest Reviews

• dab963 (9/5): Ottima soluzione per una tappa al Myvatn - Ottima colazione. Buona la dimensione della stanza. Ottimi gli spazi comuni. Due bagni e due docce, sufficienti per tutti gli ospiti.
• Lindy (10/5): - Clean, friendly, excellent breakfast, great amenities! The ice cream was delicious as well. We had a tire issue while there, and one of the staff graciously helped us by putting air in it so we could get to the local tire shop for a fix. We were so grateful!! Nothing!
• Peter (9/5): -
• Simone (10/5): -
• Anne (9/5): Fun farm based stay! - We loved the farm based stay and even got to see a lamb being born. Breakfast was good. Blockout shutters on the windows worked well for the late setting/early rising sun.
• John (8/5): - Excellent location, and convenient to fine dining.
• Landry (10/5): - Everything Nothing
• Mélanie (10/5): - Établissement de très belle qualité. Cuisine très spacieuse et très bien équipée. Salle de bain rien a dire. Petit déjeuner local copieux divers.
• Felix (7/5): - Nos gustó la ubicación y la distribución. No nos gustó el horrible olor a fosa séptica casi permanente en la habitación
• Fonie082 (9/5): -
• Oxana (9/5): - Alles war gut Nichts
• Rémy (10/5): Parfait ! - Tout était parfait : - la chambre spacieuse pour 3 - les espaces de guesthouse avec la vue - le personnel adorable (enfin quelqu’un ça change des self Check in) - l’emplacement avec une petite balade sur les volcans directement au pied de la guesthouse - les petits dej délicieux - les rideaux occultants Rien tout était parfait !
• Robin (10/5): Perfect place to stay in Myvatn - The location was perfect across the street from the craters and on the working farm was a bonus. The room with a view was lovely. The big breakfast was fantastic and the shared kitchen was used by many. There could have been a few condiments in the shared kitchen. The pillows on the beds could use replacing. The shower leaked under the door onto the bathroom floor.
• Daniel (9/5): Excelente opcíón en el lago Mývatn - Es un hotel de campo muy bien ubicado, a pocos pasos del lago Mývatn y de los pseudocráteres. Las habitaciones son muy comfortables y los muebles son nuevos y modernos. La vista es excelente y el estacionamiento es muy práctico. El desayuno es muy bueno, con productos caseros propios. En general todo muy bien, sólo un detalle, la luz del baño era muy pobre
• Giovanna (8/5): - Colazione ottima Spostarsi dalla struttura per accedere alla cucina
• David (10/5): Excellent accommodation in a wonderful location run by a caring family - Genuine farm feel, very good breakfast, very comfortable beds, amazing kitchen facilities, everything clean and hygienic.
• eric (9/5): autour du lac Myvatn - Beau logement sur une ferme mais indépendante de l'exploitation. Calme , accueil sympathique , excellent petit déjeuner , proximité immédiate de Safari Hestar , pour une chouette promenade à cheval sur les bords du lac Myvatn ( merci à notre accompagnatrice ) , très bel environnement (Höfdi , etc ..) Rien à signaler
• eric (10/5): - Le personnel. L'emplacement.
• SARAH (7/5): - L' emplacement est très chouette avec des vues superbes sur le lac. Le petit déjeuner est très bien avec des produits de la ferme. Les douches sont un peu anciennes.
• Marfurt (9/5): -
• Roberto (7/5): Posizione magnifica. Personale cordiale - La.location ed il contesto. La tranquillità
• Stephanie (9/5): Fijne locatie, vriendelijk personeel, goed ontbijt - Vriendelijk personeel, top service. Ontbijt was erg lekker Kamers zijn gehorig
• alexandra (10/5): - L endroit est calme et magnifique et très bien situé. Le personnel très sympathique.
• Francesco (9/5): tutto a km zero - Bellissima fattoria sita nella parte sud del magnifico lago myvat'n, difronte al complesso dei vulcani skutustadagigar dove si può fare una piacevole passeggiata di 45'-1h. Camere calde e spaziose, docce al piano inferiore molto pulite, così come le zone comuni dove rilassarsi leggendo un libro o sorseggiando una tisana. il plus di questa struttura è sicuramente la colazione, composta da prodotti a km zero, la maggior parte dei quali di produzione propria. Consiglierei di mettere qualche altra padella o pentola e di rimuovere le molte padelle ormai rovinate e inutilizzabili.
• Susan (10/5): Appreciate opportunity to view farm and read about history of farm and guest houses set up. - Location, space, reading history of farm and guest house. Opportunities to view farm- barn animals. Nothing
• Ilima (8/5): - The location was great. Myvatn was just across from us and there was a great walk way. They had good breakfast and if you wanted you could visit the animals to certain times.
• Robert (10/5): - Very nice facility I’m very helpful staff. I even have ice cream.
• Rubin (9/5): Homely and comfortable stay - Very helpful staff, great breakfast with homemade ingredients and food! Room was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Very detailed information book on the property and its farm which helped me appreciate this family run business. Room floor was quite cold in early May, not an issue if you bring bedroom slippers.
• Coralie (8/5): - Bon emplacement pour faire des visites et du cheval. Taille de la chambre bien et propre. Personnel réactif. C'est bien d'être dans le bâtiment avec la cuisine mais du coup pas mal de va et viens quand les personnes des autres bâtiments viennent. Petit déjeuner avec de bon produit maison et en bonne quantité . Belle vue sur les pseudo cratères. Manque de douche et wc. Pas d'intimité car les portes ne vont pas jusqu'en bas . L'espace SDB devrait être isolé part une porte du reste du logement. Lit un peu dur et oreillers à renouveler car fatigué.
• Alejandro (10/5): Para volver - Rapidez en chek in y out, desayuno completo.
• ANNE (10/5): Superbe ! - L’emplacement, les équipements, tout ! Rien !
• Lisa (9/5): -
• WorldTraveler86 (8/5): Comfortable room and excellent breakfast. Staff were awesome! - Awesome staff that were very helpful. Beds were comfortable. We had the room with the shared bathroom and that worked out surprisingly well. We loved the breakfast! Great way to start the day. Nothing
• Marco (10/5): - Guesthouse essenziale ma in posizione comoda completa di tutti i servizi. Colazione spettacolare completa di molti prodotti tipici. Possibilità di utilizzo cucina (super accessoriata) in comune con gli altri ospiti…bellissima esperienza! La camera, la colazione e la cucina in comune sono in tre strutture diverse quindi ci si deve spostare uscendo…ma niente di trascendentale.
• 文燕 (10/5): - 早餐超級棒 超值得在這邊住一晚
• Sin-Wei (10/5): -
• JIAJIA (5/5): - 地理位置很好，服务也很好，包含的早餐很棒。 两居室房间里的电热水器储水量太小，我们三位无法连续洗澡，要等很久。
• Roberto (10/5): Ottimo appoggio per grandi viaggiatori. Comodo, pulito e silenzioso. - Colazione inclusa, camera silenziosa e ben riscaldata.
• Donatus (10/5): - Very nice apartment, has all it needs. Staff of guesthouse relaxed and helpful. Breakfast excellent with some home (farmhouse) made options like jam, pate, and fresh milk. Being a country boy myself - I loved it. Excellent location south of Myvatn, in walking distance of a bunch of explosion craters. And everything around Myvatn in easy car reach. Nothing.
• Hrishikesh (9/5): - Location is excellent
• Nicol (8/5): -
• Joachim (9/5): - Das Frühstück war hervorragend. Mir hat der Stallbesuch gefallen und die freundlichen Besitzer waren sehr aufgeschlossen.
• Clémence (9/5): -
• Adrienn (10/5): Amazing stay on a farm - We were warmly welcomed on this family owned farm. Even got a chance to see the animals, the cows and the calves and the lambs. Everything was super clean and tidy. Our room was big enough for us. The breakfast was filled with homemade products (super tasty ones!) which was a big plus for us.
• Christa (7/5): - Super vriendelijk personeel, prima ontbijt, fijn om de keuken te kunnen gebruiken. Waar wij vooral tegenaanliepen was de geur van de douche. Op zich kunnen ze daar niks aan doen, maar het zorgde er wel voor dat wij in ieder geval niet konden douchen, wat vervelend was.
• anawat (9/5): Reasonable price and good Location. - Reasonable price,very clean shared bathrooms,kitchen and breakfast. Smell of water
• FABRICE (8/5): - L'emplacement est top Le petit-déjeuner permet de goûter à des produits locaux La cuisine est bien équipée
• Angelika (9/5): Tolle Unterkunft am See - Die Lage am See und das Personal einfach super. Wir haben spontan auf ein Zimmer mit eigenem Bad upgegradet was sich absolut gelohnt hat. Es war dann ein Bungalow, ein großes warmes Zimmer Aussicht, mit warmem Bad und Vorraum. Bequeme Betten und gutes Frühstück. Das warme Wasser roch nach Schwefel. Das Wetter aber da kann die Unterkunft nichts dafür
• Daniela (9/5): - La guesthouse si trova in una posizione incantevole e offre un bel panorama, comodissima per visitare il lago. La camera ha le giuste dimensioni, con letti comodi e una bella finestra luminosa. Molto bella la cucina a disposizione degli ospiti. La colazione è varia e abbondante, molto buona. Bagni in comune trovati sempre puliti. Personale gentile e disponibile. Le camere non sono molto insonorizzate, si sente tutto dalla cucina e dal vicino salotto comune. Ci sono regole sugli orari, ma purtroppo noi non siamo stati fortunati perché le persone presenti quella sera hanno cucinato alle 23, facendo molta confusione (non è certo responsabilità della struttura).

• Ramón (10/5): - Apartamento de uso privado. Amabilidad de los anfitriones.
• Deepak (7/5): Good place for an overnight stay - The location was good near the lake & a Bristo cafe . Liked the sheep patie for breakfast & friendly staff. The pillows in the room could have been better. The area in general is really windy !

• Matteo (10/5): -
• Cristina.20 (8/5): - La camera era grande e calda, colazione completa e di qualità. Ho apprezzato molto l'attenzione del personale. La posizione era davvero stupenda, possibilità di fare passeggiate nei dintorni e vedere paesaggi spettacolari. Purtroppo l'acqua calda aveva un odore poco gradevole, anche se comprendo visto il posto, nonostante ciò fare la doccia e difficile. C'era un doppio cucino sull'armadio ma era probabilmente usato e li da tanto tempo...pulizia ok ma grossolana.
• Alice (10/5): Lo consiglio assolutamente! - Staff super accogliente, stanza spaziosa e soprattutto una guesthouse con a disposizione una cucina enorme dove è possibile cucinare con tutte le comodità! Colazione spaziale con prodotti a km 0! Abbiamo visitato anche la loro fattoria! Tutto perfetto
• Herbert (10/5): Lovely stay - Guesthouse was attached to a working farm. We were able to go and see the cows milked and then drink the milk at breakfast, asking with fresh eggs and homemade jams. There was also home smoked trout, delicious. Everything was lovely. It would have been nice to have some milk in the fridge in the kitchen for drinks, but really that's such a small thing overall.
• micaela (9/5): -
• christine (10/5): - Nous avons passé 3 nuits ici et c'était génial ! Les chambres sont confortables, le personnel très accueillant et les petits déjeuners à base de produits locaux sont excellents ! Le guesthouse est situé au milieu de pseudo cratères, c'est très dépaysant. Et nous n'étions pas loin des merveilleux sites du lac Myvatn.
• Mathur (10/5): Wonderful experience, good breakfast - The location, people, dogs, birds around & the scenic beauty Nothing in particular though the bath area was very small
• Cbonnal (10/5): -
• Sofie (10/5): Wunderschön - Ein sehr schönes Gästehaus, welches einfach zu erreichen ist. Das Check in war sehr einfach und wir würden persönlich empfangen. Auch wenn in den Wintermonaten die Eisdiele des Hofes noch geöffnet ist gibt es Eis an der Rezeption zu erwerben. Das Zimmer ist sehr schön groß und es gibt genügend Sitzmöglichkeiten zum Essen in der Küche/ Wohnzimmer. Eine der schönsten Unterkünfte auf unserer Islandreise. Das Frühstück war sehr schön hergerichtet mit regionalen und typisch isländischen Produkten, sehr lecker. Das Personal war sehr freundlich.
• Marco (9/5): - Struttura molto bella e colazione buonissima Unica pecca: materasso e cuscini potrebbero essere più comodi ma la colazione compensa il tutto
• e (10/5): - The most luxurious, even when not the most expensive, stay of our whole trip. Room was big and cosy. Fully equipped kitchen with full scale oven and two stoves invited to cooking. View from windows was unique, there is path thru "false volcanoes" right in front of Guesthouse. Breakfast was delicious with homemade marmelade and jams (paprika and chilli was something special!) and lavabread. They served milk and eggs right from their farm. We enjoyed visit to barns to see cows, sheep and chickens. Whole area is full on natural wonders.
• Angelos (10/5): -
• Luis (8/5): Nice place close to all lac myvatn attractions, good food. - Nice area, in front of the lac myvatn. Quiet place. Good food NA
• Diana Marques90 (8/5): - Do pequeno almoço e localização. Conseguimos ver as auroras boreais :) Quarto com cheiro estranho e cozinha com equipamento muito velho. A casa de banho era aceitável.
• Andrea (10/5): - Family run guesthouse near a farm in myvatn, we were located in the main dormitory with a shared bathroom and kitchen, everything was clean and homely. We found old guest books to read in the main room, so many stories from 30+ years of solid work. They served a nice breakfast with attention to detail and to enhance local cuisine with farm sourced ingredients and locally sourced fish. We didn't have the chance to write ourselves in the new guestbooks, We will come back to do it.
• Margaux (8/5): -
• Pakorn (10/5): - อาหารเช้าดีมาก พนักงานคอยเติมอาหารตลอด และห้องครัวกลางดีมาก เพียบพร้อมด้วยอุปกรณ์ทุกอย่าง และสถานที่ท่องเที่ยวอยู่ฝั่งตรงข้ามของโรงแรมเลย
• Jaume (10/5): -
• Amit (10/5): excellent place away from city lights and near Lake .good place to see northen lights - breakfast served is nice Only hotel which refunds the hotel fare in case you are not able to make it due to weather conditions
• Marian (9/5): Direkt am See gelegen, tolle Unterkunft mit Kind! - Wir waren nur für eine Nacht dort. Die Unterkunft bietet als Guesthouse ein richtig süßes Frühstück mit eigenen Produkten vom Hof. Super lecker! Wir hatten ein Guesthouse für uns und es war viel Platz um sich im Haus aufzuhalten. In der Küche hätte es noch ein Sieb geben können. Das war aber nicht weiter problematisch :) Das Personal war sehr nett, durch die eine Nacht hatten wir aber keine großen Berührungspunkte.
• Núria (7/5): - Desayuno completo, aunque sin opciones dulces; solo había cereales, nada de chocolate, ni siquiera cereales de chocolate. Buen sitio para ver auroras. Tuvimos suerte de alojarnos en el edificio donde se sirve el desayuno, que era más nuevo y tranquilo, con baños más modernos que en el edificio principal. Olor a humedad, tanto en la habitación como en la ropa de cama. La cocina estaba poco equipada (no había ni sal) y era bastante caótica, con demasiada gente cocinando a la vez en el edificio principal.

• DANIEL (10/5): - La amabilidad del chico de recepción. La granja que se puede visitar Las vistas La ubicación, cerca de Husavik y Akuyeri en el norte Las instalaciones, cocina amplia y equipada Nada
• Vincenzo (7/5): - Appartamento abbastanza comodo con uno staff davvero impeccabile e cortese! La stanza era leggermente rumorosa ma solo per il forte vento dovuto dal maltempo fuori per il resto ottimo alloggio!

Heerlijk ontbijt met verse lokale producten inclusief de befaamde gerookte vis. Vriendelijk en betrokken personeel die met ons meedachten over de (on)mogelijkheden voor onze rijdag met een opkomende storm. Erg fijn verblijf!
