Guest Reviews
- Peter (9/5): Comfortable base to explore "Iceland in miniature!' - Great location for visiting the sights on the peninsula. Restaurant was very good and the ocean was close by
- Maija (9/5): Laadukas huone kauniissa maisemissa - Huone oli todella mukava ja siisti, aamiainen yksinkertainen mutta monipuolinen. Kauniit maisemat huoneesta vuorille päin. Huone oli melko ahdas kolmelle ja kylpyhuoneen ovi aika epäilyttävä.
- Delphine (10/5): Très bon séjour. Les chambres vue mer sont les mieux placées - L’emplacement, le calme, la vue mer, Les lampes de chevet au dessus de la tête empêchent de s’assoir au lit !
Le petit déjeuner est cher
Un coup d’aspirateur entre deux nuits serait souhaitable
- Christian (9/5): -
- René (8/5): TipTop. Gerne wieder - Liegt sehr gut, direkt am Meer und Sehenswürdigkeiten. Bequeme Betten, und grosszügiger Grundriss. Das Personal ist zuvorkommenden. Eigentlich nichts

- Jürgen (9/5): - Sehr hilfsbereites und nettes Personal das mir schon beim einchecken ein Gefühl gab sehr willkommen zu sein. Super Lage um die ganze Halbinsel zu erkunden. Ruhig gelegen, großes Zimmer. Gutes Frühstück und Abendessen. (zum Glück da es zu meiner Reisezeit darauf ein Monopol hatte ;) ) Der Preis für das Frühstück könnte etwas niedriger sein.
- Gregor (10/5): Topp Location. - Die Location war perfekt, Zimmer tipptopp Das Wettet ;-)
- Hans (8/5): Prima voor elkaar - Gewoon prima hotel. Locatie is geweldig Niks
- Vincent (10/5): - Possibilité de demander des assiettes, couverts, glaçons pour 2 personnes sans aucun problème pour pouvoir manger dans la chambre Rien
- Elena (10/5): - Lugar precioso y ha habitaciones cómodas. Vimos auroras. .
- Raheel (8/5): -
- Bogi (8/5): -
- Britta (10/5): Wunderschön - Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal. Bei der Begrüßung fühlt man sich schon gut aufgehoben. Tolle Lage, direkt an der Küste mit wunderschönem Ausblick. Es gab nichts
- Yasir Amir Khan (5/5): Overall ok hotel - Rooms are like barracks not a proper hotel
- Lizbeth (5/5): Hotel limpio, cómodo, remoto, pero con personal ineficiente - la ubicación fue perfecta para ver auroras, es un hermoso lugar alejado de la contaminación lumínica. tranquilo y sin ruido el personal que te atiende en el restaurante/recepción,más que gente profesional del turismo, parecen becarios de carrera, la atención es deficiente y literal parece que están en un receso de clases, siempre platicando entre ellos.
el desayuno es malo y caro

- IndyGit67 (9/5): Very comfortable, clean hotel in a remote part of Iceland. - Lovely comfortable triple room. The largest we stayed in in Iceland. The separated bed for a third person was especially welcome. Very expensive breakfast.
- IndyGit67 (8/5): Remote, comfortable, but expensive hotel. - Very large and comfortable room with a separated third bed in its own (tiny) room. Triple room in its own building, so very quiet. Very expensive breakfast. Staff were less friendly than in every other place in Iceland.
- Fareena (9/5): - I loved the location of this gem of a place.
Beautiful location, and a good base to explore the coast and other points in interest in the area.
Room was clean, spacious, peaceful and staff at the hotel were friendly and accommodating. Nothing.
- Iratxe (9/5): - Habitación amplia y limpia, con un ventanal enorme. Tiene un restaurante al lado donde sirven desayunos y cenas aunque el horario es limitado.
- Kurt (8/5): I would definitely stay again. - The location is spectacular. The owner was incredibly helpful with directions and local sights. The food was good and the room was clean and with a great view of the sea. Night renovation works being done to the restaurant. They were a bit noisy at times.
- Trita (8/5): Very good choice for one night stop. - We've arrived late in the evening, but the guy in service was extremely helpful, making us feel safe and comfortable.
The room was good deal for the moment, had everything we needed, clean and comfortable. Nothing
- Rafael (9/5): Außergewöhnlich - Die Lage des Hotels, nur wenige Gehminuten von den wunderschönen Klippen, toller Ausblick auf die Berge, Restaurant lecker, freundliches Personal, guter Standpunkt um die Halbinsel zu erkunden.
- Klaus (8/5): -
- Carina (9/5): - Beliggenheden. Morgenmaden. Venligt personale. El-radiator havde svært ved at varme værelset op.
- Vykintas (8/5): -
- Annette (10/5): Wir würden auf jeden Fall wieder buchen - Alles. Die Lage, die Ausstattung, die Größe des Apartments, das Frühstück, die unglaublich nette Crew, das Lokal. Alles. -
- Martin (10/5): Nahe am Meer. - Die Lage an der Küste ist super. Bis um etwa 18:00 ist der Touristenansturm im Restaurant gigantisch…
- Bubmann (10/5): -
- Ursula (9/5): -
- Stefanie (8/5): -
- Manuel (8/5): - Posizione fantastica, la sera ottime possibilità di vedere l'aurora. Stanza molto comoda C'è un solo ristorante nel periodo invernale, ma stiamo parlando di un villaggio davvero piccolo.
- Alessandro (10/5): -
- ELISA (4/5): -
- SHUYAN (10/5): - 附近就是景區
因為大雪交通中斷,飯店讓我們延後退房
- Thanos (9/5): -
- Xavi P (1/5): Aunque la carretera esté cortada, te cobran igual. Haganse un seguro que pueda cubrir eso. - No pude llegar. Tenía reserva para dos noches, el primer día la carretera estaba cortada y el segundo tenía unas condiciones muy peligrosas para llegar. El hotel solo dijo "Tenemos una estricta política de cancelación". Tenía reserva para dos noches, pero por nieve se cortó la carretera de acceso. El personal del hotel me dijo que no me devolvían nada de la estancia, sin más. En otros hoteles te suelen hacer pagar el primer día, pero no el segundo, pero aquí no. Aunque esté LA CARRETERA CORTADA y no se pueda llegar, sin poner en peligro tu vida.
Como quedó claro que iba a perder las dos noches sin retorno de ninguna cantidad de lo ya pagado, intenté llegar el segundo día. Después de 2 horas de viaje, ya sobre una capa de nieve, las condiciones empeoraron. Ya no estaba la carretera cortada pero habían placas de hielo, estaba nevando y subía el viento, com perdida de visibilidad. Así que desistí por miedo a tener una accidente con el coche, faltaba más de 1 hora, para llegar al hotel, en condiciones muy peligrosas.
En ese momento, el segundo día, me dieron la opción de cambiar de días, cosa imposible en un viaje organizado con otros hoteles, o de usar el seguro. Yo no cogí ningún seguro, y no tengo claro que sea posible tener un seguro que te cubra el corte de carreteras o el no atreverse a conducir más de 1 hora sobre nieve y placas de hielo.
Veo injusto que deba de pagar yo las dos noches de hotel si no tengo ninguna culpa de nada, al menos que sea un gasto compartido o cobren solo una noche. Adjunto foto del estado de las carreteras, donde se ve que la carretera (en rojo) estaba cortada, eso fue el día que tocaba entrar en el hotel.

- Davy De Smet (9/5): Great location - Very spacious room with a great view. We could see the northern lights from behind our room. Restaurant was ok, breakfast good. A lot of free parking space. You can see Arnarstapi's main sights with a short walk from the hotel. I'd recommend the hotel over the cottages; the hotel has a much nicer view. Reception/check-in was a bit chaotic.
- Halloumi (10/5): - la caméra qui permet de surveiller les aurores boréales au chaud dans la chambre et nous avons d'ailleurs pu en voir et sortir grâce à la caméra.
c'est la chaîne 1

- HAO (10/5): 非常值得推荐! - 这次入住 Arnarstapi Hotel 的家庭小型套房,体验真的超出预期!我们三大一小入住,空间宽敞舒适,完全不拥挤,最惊喜的是每个房间都有窗户,躺在床上就能看极光,视野绝了。
傍晚抵达后直接在酒店餐厅用餐,餐食味道很不错,方便又省心。酒店位置太赞了,旁边就是港口,散步就能看到可爱的海豹,还有标志性的石桥等景点,出门就是美景,安静又治愈。无论是家庭出行还是追极光,这家酒店都非常推荐,满分好评!
- Christina (10/5): Rundum zufrieden - Sehr freundliches Personal und gutes Frühstück. Cabins waren sehr gemütlich und hatten eine gute Ausstattung. Tolle Lage am Meer und Nordlichtkamera am Dach 👌war ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt Dass wir nur eine Nacht dort waren 😉
- Silke (9/5): -
- Shalyn (10/5): Iceland Beauty! - Amazing location, beautiful apartment, and wonderful customer service! Absolutely recommend to anyone visiting Iceland!
- Dialer (8/5): -
- Emily (8/5): We very much enjoyed our overnight stay. - Lovely location, with an ocean view. Since it was winter, the restaurant hours were very limited.
- Þóroddur (6/5): Stay away from the hotel restaurant - This is not bad for a place to sleep, it is clean, rather spacious and the beds are fine. This is quite „industrial“ - it isn’t really a hotel, rather a motel of sorts with container-like cabins in a row from the reception. It is totally okay but not super nice. For a weekend getaway we probably should have gone elsewhere.
BEWARE Of THE RESTAURANT:
I paid almost ISK 4.000 (EUR 28) for a “rich and creamy soup with seafood” which turned out to be (quite tasty) fish broth with only three tiny slivers of probably crab meat. When alerted to this, the very friendly waitress thanked me for my honesty, which was nice but a bit puzzling. Not the dinner I had envisioned but, luckily, I had a bag of popcorn in my room so I survived ;)
- Sara Paola Antonia (6/5): Da evitare se viaggiate in inverno - L’hotel ha una posizione fantastica ma le stanze sono piccole e non molto pulite. Non ci hanno cambiato le tazze del caffè usate e nel complesso il servizio non è stato all’altezza del costo. Il ristorante della struttura chiudeva alle 5.30 senza nessun preavviso nonostante ci fosse scritto anche sarebbe rimasto aperto fino alle 8.00. Questo ci ha causato non pochi problemi visto che in inverno è l’unico ristorante aperto in paese.
- HEECHANG (10/5): 너무이쁜 마을! - 근처 뷰가 너무 좋았고, 숙소도 정말 이쁘고 심플해요
바로 앞 레스토랑에서 식사도 만족했습니다 조리시설이 없다? 정도입니다
- Witoon (8/5): -
- Pei Ying (9/5): - The property, the facility and the view, everything is perfect.
- Nutthinee (10/5): -
- Inka (8/5): Ich fande es sehr schön. Das eine Kamera auf dem Dach war und man sehr gut die Nordlichter sehen konnte und als sie sich - War sehr sauber. Personal auch sehr nett.
- Chuah (9/5): - Location near town Nil
- Josef (9/5): - beautiful view over the sea, watching the northern lights right from the room and even better from just outside the room,
as well as -after only couple minutes walk -from standing on top of the cliffs .
watching the sunrise across the sea.
good starting point for other beautiful attractions
- Perrone (10/5): - Struttura accogliente, check-in molto facile, posizione perfetta, una parete tutta vetrata.
Stanza e bagno puliti. Leggermente piccolo per tre persone
- Victoria (10/5): -
- Stephanie (10/5): - The location and views are beautiful
- Gayle (9/5): Great! - Accommodation very comfortable, great for Northern Lights Nothing
- Alise (8/5): Netjes hotel met aardig personeel - Mooi hotel met aardig personeel, fijne plek in het westen. De kamer was wat krap voor 3 personen.
- Melinda (10/5): -
- Anna (9/5): -
- Anchalee (8/5): Most reviews about this hotel are not positive. But for us, we find it is quite a good one in Iceland trip. - Large space, good food, microwave available, good view Few amenities

- Vered (8/5): - החדר היה בגודל טוב ל3 אנשים, קרוב מאד לאתר התיירות הסמוך מלון קצת יקר, אפשר היה להפעיל את החימום לפני שהגענו (זה איסלנד...קרררר),
אין מטבחון בחדר
- Otavio (10/5): - Great facilities and great staff
- JMart29 (10/5): -
- Falguni (10/5): - The parking lot is convenient for the guests, safe place !!
- Howard (10/5): Could not have been happier with a last minute booking. - Location awesome! All good.
- Ginna (10/5): -
- Dimitri (10/5): -
- Sergei (10/5): - We had great experience at the hotel. We liked stunning views, spacious and warm room, great shower, proximity to trails. It would be great, if the hotel had a lobby where guests could relax outside of their rooms. A cozier style might be a better fit for rainy and cold weather, as the contemporary design makes the rooms feel a bit cold. The selection of restaurants was also limited. While there were a few highly-rated lunch options, breakfast was only available at hotels.
- Alexandre (6/5): -
- Trish (10/5): - The location and view were great. The fish and chips in the restaurant were the best we’ve had.
- MICHEL (8/5): Fonctionnel et bien placé - Bungalow type Ikea sans beaucoup de charme à l'intérieur mais très fonctionnel pour une famille de 4 personnes. Pas ou peu de restaurants dans le village ( éviter la pizzeria cher et pas terrible). Vue sur la lande et la route mais pas de stress, c'est un cul de sac ! Le plus : l'accès direct à 50 m (départ depuis la statue de viking) à la promenade spectaculaire le long de la côte. Le petit déjeuner est en realité bien meilleur que les commentaires ne le laissent entendre.
- Sandra (10/5): -
- Jesus (9/5): Sitio perfecto para explorar Snaefellsnes - La ubicación es exelente para hacer un paseo por los acantildos y el hotel está muy bien diseñado. La cena en el restaurante también nos gustó. No desayunamos en el hotel porque nos parecía un poco caro, así que no podemos valorar el desayuno.
- Anthony (7/5): -
- Amruta (9/5): We were fortunate to witness the Nort Lights during our stay. - The location and facilities were excellent.
- Debra (9/5): - Room was clean and modern.
TV was our biggest complaint . It was raining when we got there so we couldn’t go for walks or anything. We couldn’t get anything on the TV. Better instructions would have been a big help.
Also, I tried to call the hotel restaurant from my mobile phone in our room and had the hardest time reaching the restaurant. The lady who answered the contact number wouldn’t transfer me but gave me an 8 digit number that didn’t work. I had to dress and walk to restaurant desk to make a reservation.
Other than those 2 things, we loved the ocean view from our room windows in the morning and a lovely walk. Very clean room and nice shower .
