Guest Reviews
- BRENDA (10/5): - El lugar está alejado, el restaurante más cercano está a unos 7 minutos en auto, que no es mucho, la propiedad es muy linda y en buen estado, tuvimos la fortuna de ver auroras boreales desde nuestra habitación. Lo recomiendo.
- CHUCK (6/5): - Biting Midge flies prevented us from opening the windows to cool the room down. 1 very small fan good for 1 of the three beds was provided. I'd recommend the property providing one per bed to make it tolerable. Very clean. Quiet, nice staff. Simple accomodations. Easy check in check out
- Jacky (8/5): - zu wenig Luft und zu warm für drei Personen, da die Fenster wegen Stechmücken geschlossen bleiben sollten. Sonst alles bestens
- Chitra Kamleshkumar (10/5): - Great place to live especially if you want to witness Northern lights as away from city lights.
- heidi (10/5): - Quiet location near town with a beautiful view of the mountains. Friendly hosts. Room had everything we needed
- Elizabeth (10/5): - I liked having a deck right outside my room, access to a kitchen, clean bathroom, comfy beds, and a blowdryer. The property was also very beautiful.
- Richard (8/5): - Large, modern, clean room
- Peter (10/5): - Ett trevligt guesthouse som uppfyllde våra förväntningar. Rent och fresht.
- David (10/5): - Very welcoming. Host was very accommodating to our late arrival.
- Ishpreet (10/5): - Nice location. Clean rooms
- Ryan (10/5): - Very close to Hofn where we had dinner and filled up on gas after a long day of adventure. The views from our room were very beautiful - opened the door for a minute and a ton of little bugs came in the room. Would definitely stay here again though despite a few bug bites.
- Dallan (6/5): - It had a bed, a private bathroom with shower, a shared kitchen and WiFi. Basically a very small bedroom in a three bedroom house. Nice owner. BUT… No TV. No window screens - lots of tiny biting insects. Seemed to collect solar heat. No AC. That’s it.
- massimo (10/5): Ottima location - Ottima accoglienza camera spaziosa bagno grande e tutti i confort per chi handicap doccia raso terra... cucina super nuovissima come tutta la casetta . Location ottima a pochi centinaia di metri dall strada principale i.mersa nel verde della fattoria super silenziosa. Bravi complimenti per la gentilezza e per le scelte di arredo...
- John (10/5): - Nice Room in a cottage building in a rural area just outside of town. Room was nice and there is a shared kitchen if you choose. Super friendly host lives in house on grounds.
- Kathrin (8/5): - Es war himmlisch ruhig, dabei nur wenige Kilometer von Höfn entfernt, wir waren zeitiger da, doch das war kein Problem; alles super und die kleine Gemeinschaftsküche war total gemütlich
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Comfortable environment, large apartment space, good view, complete kitchen equipment
- Ha (10/5): - We had a lovely stay. The room is very clean and cozy. Kitchen has everything I needed to make a nice dinner. Highly recommended.
- Robert (10/5): Great place near Hofn! - We loved that there was a full kitchen so we were able to cook pasta for dinner; it saved quite a bit of money instead of eating in restaurants. The whole place was impeccable!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice, big room with lots of place to hang coats, place luggage, plug your chargers. Has a shared kitchen, when we were there we were the only ones. The GPS brought us to the right place, but there were no signs. You are asked to leave your shows at the entryway.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Everything was as expected
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Simplement, la chambre propre et la dame accueillante, j’ai mal noté que notre enfant était du voyage , alors elle a corrigé et m’a expliqué qu’elle devait corriger la facture, normal tout c’est bien passé.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The room was clean and tidy, kitchen facility was complete. We had a good stay in the house. The outside area was so spacious to see the aurora.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Bad value for money - This place was by far the worst value for money of our Ring Road trip. The room was incredibly simple and the shared bathroom and kitchen are right outside the bedroom doors that we could hear everything of the other group staying in the same location if they were in the common space. Everything was clean and it's pleasant enough, but you could get much better for what this place cost us.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Simple and no fuss place to stay with breakfast available
- Verified traveler (2/5): very poor price/quality ratio - I can't understand the hype about this place in the other reviews. The house is nice but the bedroom is shabby and without any comforts (no ensuite sink, main light not working). I think it is extremely overpriced even by Icelandic standards: €160 for a run-down double room with shared bathroom is a rip-off.
- Norbert (10/5): Accueil professionnel comme d’hab - S de B très petite pour 3 ou 4 chambres mais très bien dans l’ensemble
- Katie (10/5): - Very nice owners, very clean shared space. A very friendly dog loves to play with the guests!
- Elisabeth (8/5): Ruhige, saubere Unterkunft - Sehr sauberes Zimmer, Küche vorhanden, die aber geteilt werden musste. Preis ev. etwas hoch. Unterkunft liegt ca. 4 km von Höfn entfernt. Netter Ort mit Supermärkten, guten Restaurants und Schwimmbad.
- Bev (8/5): - Lovely location. Nice to have kitchen and veranda. A grill might be good edition. Very scenic and peaceful
- ELENA (8/5): Cómodo y tranquilo. - Casa de tres o cuatro habitaciones con baño privado y cocina comunitaria. La habitación daba a un porche trasero, con cama muy cómoda. Caro para ser solo alojamiento, pero parece que la zona es cara en comparación a otras partes del país.
- 원용 (10/5): Perfect!! - It was really comfortable and cozy. If possible, I really wanna stay again. The room, kitchen, bathroom, location all was perfect.
- GS (10/5): - This was easily the nicest place we stayed in Iceland. We had a private room and bathroom beside the main building. We shared the house with two other couples with their own rooms. Kitchen space was big enough for all of us to share. Our room was very big and comfortable! The bathroom was very clean and spacious. The view from our room and bathroom was incredible. Would definitely stay here again
- Donald (10/5): Great guest house in quiet location - Located a few miles out of Hofn, but that was great. Quiet, dark, comfortable room.
- Peter (10/5): Clean - Very clean. Rural setting.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Very clean, calm, clear and well decorated room - Very clean, calm, clear and well decorated room. Common kitchen was well-equipped and convenient.
- Jessica (10/5): Cozy comfortable and convenient - Clean, modern, private even with a shared kitchen. Would definitely stay here again.
- Kaygee (6/5): - Nice location away from everything. I took a nice walk in the morning to take in the surrounding beauty. I was neither wowed nor disappointed by the hotel. I opted for a breakfast in the town so I cannot comment on the food the place offered.
- Simon (8/5): Kleines Gasthaus, nur mit PKW erreichbar - Vor Ort ist Selbstverpflegung möglich, es wird aber auch Frühstück für 2000 ISK/Pers. (Stand Aug. 2018) angeboten.
- Arnaud (8/5): Guesthouse agréable à quelques km de höfn - À quelques kilomètres de höfn, agréable guest house. Nous avions une chambre dans la dépendance, grande et confortable. Prix un peu élevé tout de même.
- Gro (10/5): Nytt, komfortabelt gjestehus nær Høfn - Dilksnes Guesthouse ligger rett utenfor Höfn og er et godt alternativ for overnatting. Hyggelig vert og helt nytt sted. Huset vi bodde i hadde tre rom med private bad, og felles godt utstyrt kjøkken. Rent og delikat. Mulig å kjøpe mat på Netto i Høfn sentrum. Der finnes også gode spisesteder. Gjestehuset ligger landlig til med vakker utsikt til Vatnajökull.
- Vivek (8/5): - Nice little place. Room was neat and clean and good size. Would recommend it!
- ksenia (8/5): Nice guesthouse, very hospitable owners - Nice guesthouse, very hospitable owners Fully-equipped kitchen with a big fridge Good Wi-Fi signal A lot of parking place
- Barbara (8/5): Good if you hire as a group - We had the guesthouse to ourselves so we were very lucky. If the two other ensuite bedrooms had been occupied it would have been very uncomfortable as there were only 4 chairs in the kitchen. There is no living room or dining room so to hire it out to 6-7 people seems a bad idea. The bedrooms and bathrooms are well decorated, new, clean and comfortable. But they also don’t afford seating areas so I would suggest only renting this if you’re in a small group who know each other well. If you turned up to find 2 other couples booked in you would be in for an awkward time.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - good and comfortable room with kitchen facilities
- YEONGNAM (10/5): 12월 아이슬란드 - 날씨도 좋고 주변이 조용하여 오로라를 볼수있을줄알았는데 못봄 ㅠ 게스트하우스는 깨끗하고 무난하다 공용주방도 있어 저녁에 우동끓여먹었음
