- Marco (10/5): - Extremely kind staff. Very helpful and welcoming!

- Fabienne (7/5): - sauber, gute lage. empfangs-katze ist sehr süss. frühstück lecker. hotel eher in die jahre gekommen - aber dafür auch mit historischer geschichte. das erste hotel dort und seit anbeginn der route 1 dabei
- James (7/5): - The hotel was ok for a one night stay At 1:20am the fire alarm went off we jumped up and started to get things together to evacuate looked out of window and lights were going on but no movement to evacuate. Waited to see if an announcement would be made after 15mins with no announcement looked outside and no movement tried to go back asleep but it was difficult
In morning asked reception what was the fault and they said it was someone smoking in the room
Although i know it’s not the hotels fault however they need to rethink their procedures for dealing with a fire or other emergency re communication with guests
I also hope the fined the guest or the travel company if it was one the coach load of people staying that night.
- Charissa (8/5): -
- Tony (5/5): Dommage qu'une personne en cuisine ruine les efforts de ceux de la réception ! - - Réception : accueil vraiment satisfaisant tant le soir que le matin (la fille était prévenant en annonçant le risque de bourrasques de vent dans la journée)
- Vue : exceptionnelle sur la baie et la montagne
- Serviettes de démaquillage
- Lit : King Size et de bonne qualité - Pas d'ascenseur donc escalier : gênant si vous avez des valises lourdes surtout si vous êtes au 3è étage
- Salle d'eau : très exigüe et avec rideau de douche désagréable (car a tendance à coller à la peau)
- Pas de rangement alors que la chambre disposait d'un recoin qui s'y prêtait parfaitement (quelque étagères auraient suffi)
- Pas assez de places de parking
- PdJ : oeufs brouillés et bacon desséchés et surcuits : le tout tiède ou froid. Pas de lait chaud. Si vous demandez pour le réchauffer, la réponse est : "On n'a pas de lait chaud et rien pour le réchauffer !". Puis, la grande avec des lunettes et queue de cheval vient vous dire sans élégance : "il est 10h maintenant, la cuisine est fermée, vous devez sortir !". Une telle interaction aurait provoqué son licenciement sur le champs dans bien des entreprises. Avec de tels propos, elle ne mérite clairement pas d'être en front-office mais tout au mieux à la plonge. C'est purement scandaleux !
- Wi-Fi non sécurisé
- Insonorisation inexistante ou inefficace
- Ralf-Peter (6/5): Einfaches Hotel mit guter Gastronomie - Gute Betten, sehr leckeres Essen abends. Dienstag Pizzatag (jede Pizza 2.000 ISK). Nette Bedienung. Zimmer sehr klein und eng. Kaum Platz um den Koffer zu öffnen. Etwas hellhörig.
- Amelia (6/5): Great breakfast but otherwise dull - good view from the main building but not the room - Friendly staff, great breakfast buffet and good packed lunch option This was the most expensive night of our trip but compared with other hotels, quite disappointing. The decor and facilities were old/tired and no welcoming touches. Paper cups for tea in the room felt very down-market. Our room had no view and was separate from the main building.
- Harri (7/5): -
- Adrian (8/5): -
- Emmanuel (3/5): Je ne conseille pas cet Hotel - La chambre est petite, salle de bain ridicule : cabine douche + WC ! la salle de bain
- Lukas (10/5): Tolles Hotel, alles bestens - Das Hotel macht einen modernen Eindruck. Zimmer sehr schön, wir hatten Aussicht auf 4 Gletscherzungen. Abendessen und Frühstück sehr gut, und das Personal sehr freundlich. Ein Tip: nicht die allergünstigsten Zimmer buchen… wer Wert auf Komfort legt, sollte ein paar Kronen ausgeben für den Upgrade.

- Valentina (7/5): Lussuoso principalmente nel costo - Buona posizione, personale molto gentile, pulito e nel complesso si sta bene. Camere molto piccole, c’è solo il letto e un piccolo bagno, manca una scrivania che invece potrebbe essere utile ma non ci sarebbe stato lo spazio. Sono stata in camera da sola (matrimoniale uso singola) ed è stato sufficiente lo spazio a mia disposizione ma in due sarebbe stato davvero poco. Prezzo alto rispetto a quello che viene offerto.

- Georgios (9/5): Lovely hotel in Hofn - Probably the best hotel in Höfn. Room was excellent, location is perfect and breakfast very good. People working there were super friendly! Could use darker curtains for the summer sun..
- Anna-Maria (6/5): Schönes Hotel mit Luft nach oben. - Schönes Hotel mit tollem Ausblick. Der Frühstücksraum ist schön eingerichtet und dasFrühstück war klasse. Das beste Frühstück bis jetzt auf unserer Reise. . Es gab auch frische Ananas.
Den erwähnten Haus Kater gibt es tatsächlich. Bei der Ankunft sprang er in den Kofferraum und ist auch nicht mehr raus. 🤣 Der Rezeptionist nahm ihn dann raus und war sehr nett und vorsichtig zu ihm. Der Kater/Katze ist richtig süß. Das erste Zimmer im Haupthaus nicht das, was ich gebucht. Umgehend bekam ich dann ins im Nebengebäude. Es war ok; dass wir zum Frühstück ins Haupthaus musste.
Die Zimmer müssten renoviert werden.

- Thor (2/5): Not what I thought I was paying for - The breakfast was good Very noisy room. Dirty hallways. Bad info on the booking site. I thought I was booking a room at the hotel (that was my intention) but was sent to another building. I tried to protest and just told that nothing could be done. Very bad exp.

- Debora (10/5): Ottimo - Stanca spaziosa, con tutti i comfort necessari. Abbiamo dormito benissimo, e la colazione buonissima e abbondante. Staff gentile e premuroso, ci siamo trovati benissimo.
- Taillepied (9/5): Proximité avec la falaise de Vestrahorn, la plage de sable noir et le village viking reconstitué - Hôtel très confortable et calme. Bonne situation géographique. Excellent pdéj-buffet (3500 ISK). Dîner correct mais pas donné (10300 ISK pour 1 soupe, 1 plat de saumon + 1 petite bière). En comparaison, le prix de la chambre n'est pas excessif. Pas d'ascenseur, utile avec des bagages lourds.
- Gerhard (8/5): Ich würde wiederkommen - Der Ausblick aus dem Zimmer und die ruhige Atmosphäre
- Panayiotis (9/5): -
- eeeceel (10/5): Outstanding Customer Service! - Dear Hótel Höfn Team,
I wanted to reach out and send a sincere thank you for your incredible flexibility and kindness during the recent severe weather between April 5th and 6th.
As you know, the official road closures and shelter-in-place orders made it impossible for us to reach the hotel on our original reservation dates. We were quite stressed trying to navigate the conditions, and your willingness to accommodate our last-minute changes was a huge relief.
It is rare to find such understanding and professional service during unpredictable circumstances. We are so grateful for your help and look forward to staying with you on our next trip to Iceland.
Warm regards,
Erick and Helen

There was little understanding or flexibility shown in handling the situation, which was disappointing. Based on this experience, we cannot recommend this hotel.
- Melanie (7/5): Prima voor 1 nacht - Het ontbijt was mega uitgebreid en goed verzorgd! Badkamer was super klein. De douche was met een douchegordijn, maar omdat de douche zo klein was kwam je de hele tijd tegen het gordijn aan.

- Luk.Herrm. (7/5): Tolles Frühstück, der Rest ok - Herausragendes Frühstück, schöne Aufenthaltsmöglichkeiten außerhalb des Zimmers, nettes Personal Das Badezimmer (extrem klein, in die Jahre gekommen, Schimmel in der Dusche). Räume sehr, sehr hellhörig.
- Litoš (10/5): - Guy at reception and cat ❤️
- elfabj_rkk2024 (2/5): Dont. book - I warn travelers against staying at this place. First, it was not possible to make a reservation without paying in full upfront, and there was no option to cancel and receive a refund, not even a partial one.
Secondly, I have to say that the level of customer service was nonexistent. We travel extensively around the world, and we have rarely experienced such inflexibility and lack of understanding.
We had to cancel two rooms because of the weather, but no consideration was shown for the circumstances. I would sooner recommend sleeping in the car than staying here.
