Guest Reviews
- DAMIAN (10/5): - An extremely pleasant stay w.comfortable bed AND a GRAND breakfast buffet!
- Regina (9/5): -
- Dekker (10/5): - Ruime kamer Locatie
- Mara (6/5): -
- Hanne (6/5): Havde forventet mere for pengene. - Der var rent Jeg synes det var MEGET dyrt ift. det vi fik.
Sammenlignet med et hotel midt i Reykjavik til samme pris, hvor hotellet var “up to date”, hyggeligt, en god stemning og fælles område hvor vi om aftenen kunne side med vores rejse-venner, synes vi det var slidt og upersonligt til den pris.
- Michel (7/5): -
- Elena (10/5): Buen hotel aunque un poco caro - Ubicación, limpieza, auto check in; desayuno, magnífico. Relación calidad precio: un poco caro para ser un hotel de tres estrellas.
- Gianni (10/5): - Magnifica struttura immersa nella natura
- S (10/5): Thoroughly enjoyed staying here, staff was excellent, clean and quiet rooms, and amazing breakfast. - Location was stunning, nestled in between 2 hills, amazing scenery. Breakfast far exceeded my expectations, it was incredible!
I failed to realize check out was 10am, staff called while we were hiking to the Navy Plane wreck site, they graciously extended our check-out to 1100.
I would highly recommend Hotel Burfall. There was nothing that I disliked. We did have an issue with Wi-fi, the name/password wasn’t the same on the welcome sheet. Not a big deal.
- Rafaelia (10/5): Perfect - The bed was really big, and the room was very spacious
- Laurentiu (10/5): Great stay. - Very quiet, clean, very good breakfast and nice personable staff. The large shelf to place suitcases was very useful. The beds were comfortable. If we were to be picky, the shower was on the small side.
- Talyn (8/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast. Easy check-in. Mattresses had a little bit of crater.
- ANNETTE (10/5): - Topp Lage. Sehr sauberes Hotel, freundliches Personal. Unkompliziertes Ein/Auschecken.
Frühstück alles was man braucht
- Francesca (9/5): Was comfortable and would certainly recommend - Location, ease of check in Bathroom was quite tight
- phil (10/5): - I enjoyed the whole experience from checking in to the breakfast. Worth the stay! the cloud cover. I couldn't see the Northern Light
- Michał (9/5): Great views - Fantastic view in a remote location but a short drive from the main road, friendly staff and breakfast was included in the price. The room wasn't very luxurious and was quite hot inside, but I would recommend it
- Akshat (10/5): -
- Tara (8/5): -
- Mireya (8/5): Muy aconsejable - Es un hotel pequeño muy cerca de Vik, en un entorno muy tranquilo, cerca de los acantilados de Dyrhólaey y a poca distancia de la playa de arena negra de Reynisfjara.
Las camas y las almohadas son cómodas, la calefacción muy potente, aunque no hay radiadores que, tal cual es el tiempo en Islandia, vendrían muy bien por si se necesitara secar alguna prenda.
No hay posibilidad de cenar en el hotel, aunque hay alguna máquina de vending. Sin embargo, el desayuno buffet, que va incluido en el precio, es bastante decente. El personal es muy amable y servicial.
El baño esta limpio, el agua sale con mucha presión, si quieres.
Todo está muy limpio.
Hay parking gratuito, aunque es normal por lo que se paga por la habitación
El summum fue que vimos auroras boreales.
- Yuji (10/5): また行きたい宿 - チェックインからアウトまで合理的なシステムだった。
夜はノーザンライトが綺麗に見えた。
スタッフの方が、日本語で一生懸命挨拶してくれて、
嬉しかった!
- Aleix (10/5): -
- Peter (10/5): It was a perfect place to visit Vik, and the sites around. Black sand beach, the famous church on the hill. Saw the no - Quiet. Set back from the road. Nothing.
- Enrique (8/5): -
- Elisa (10/5): - Stanza molto bella e curata, presente bollitore in stanza e nella saletta comune presente microonde e una macchinetta snack, colazione superba.
- John (10/5): -
- Razvan (8/5): -
- De Lisi (7/5): -
- Marjan (10/5): - Great stopover while taking the ring road around Iceland. Breakfast was accommodating to dietary restrictions, they provided gluten free options.
- Elenia (10/5): -
- Luisa (8/5): -
- Lisa (7/5): Fijne verblijfplaats in de buurt van Vík - De ligging is prachtig. Wij hadden het geluk dat we het Noorderlicht vanaf deze locatie konden zien.
Het ontbijt was uitgebreid en prima. De kamers netjes en ruim.
Goede locatie in de buurt van Dyrolaey en Reynisfjara. De prijs-kwaliteitverhouding.
Als je aankomt heb je kans dat er niemand bij de balie zit voor in te checken.
- Jimin (8/5): - 环境总体还行,看到了极光 价格如果能稍微低一些就好了
- Léa (9/5): Très bon hôtel - Emplacement
Confort des chambres
Petit déjeuner Pas de rapport avec le personnel
Rapport qualité prix moyen
- Yevheniia (10/5): -
- Jessy (8/5): Great room, great location - Breakfast was good and location was great if you’re traveling towards the south of Iceland. Room was comfortable and spacious The winds were so high causing a metal flap outside the window to bang all night. Not sure what purpose it serves but if possible to get it stabilized that’d be nice to allow sleep. Maybe even an hour later for checkout would allow a later breakfast as well - I was finding myself forcing to wake up to get breakfast before missing it
- Allan (9/5): - EXCELLENT breakfast!!! Don’t miss it! Hotel has incredible surrounding and the remote checking is great.
- Jean (8/5): -
- Cindy (10/5): -
- Paulo (9/5): - Very spatious and confortable room and bathroom. Confortable beds. Very good breakfast. The hotel doesn't look so good from the outside. Although it's a country hotel, the surroundings look messy.
- Anne (10/5): -
- Luciana Angélica (7/5): Ótimo lugar para ver a Aurora Boreal. - Quarto confortável, café da manhã farto e gostoso.
- Altea (7/5): -
- maria cristina (10/5): -
- Zoe (10/5): Warm and comfortable, great base for exploring the local area - Peaceful, secluded location, but easy to get to by car. Good for exploring the Vik area. Large, warm and comfortable room, and we felt they went the extra mile. Breakfast was delicious and had lots of choices. Nothing!
- Maria (9/5): Un sogno on the road! - Colazione ottima e ricca, struttura accogliente con camere dotate di tutti i comfort
Staff molto gentile Ci vorrebbe una stanza attrezzata come cucina
C’è solo un microonde e una macchinetta sneck
- Micaela (10/5): -
- ABDERRAHMANE (10/5): -
- Hongyu (10/5): - This room was super comfortable, and the breakfast was amazing — it totally exceeded my expectations. They had everything from coffee and bread to bacon, eggs, and fruit — a perfect way to fuel up for the whole day. If it fits your budget, I’d definitely recommend staying here.
- Fernando BC (10/5): Estadia extraordinária! - Hotel excelente! Fica a apenas alguns minutos da rodovia, então bem rápido de chegar. O quarto é espaçoso, limpo, camas confortáveis e vista extraordinária. Café da manhã foi o melhor dos 7 hotéis/pousadas que visitei na Islândia. Realmente superou as expectativas, recomendo
- Edward (9/5): -
- CASTELLANI (8/5): - Petit déjeuner copieux Il faut prévoir de quoi manger le soir car rien autour
- Valeska (7/5): Ruhige Unterkunft in top Lage - Die Zimmer sind geräumig, es gibt ein einfaches aber leckeres Frühstücksbuffet. Die Lage ist top, abseits der Strasse und trotzdem schnell in Vìk. Einfaches Ein- und Auschecken mit Türschloss. Die Angestellten sind unglaublich nett. Die Zimmer sehr sauber! Sie haben bei unserer Anreise einen weiteren Teil des Hotels gebaut, alles Leute von dort (evtl. der Manager?) Hut ab, sehr tolle Leistung! Sehr dünne Wände, wenn Leute früh los sind (oder den Code ihrer Tür nicht wussten und die Tür "error" sagte) hatte man einen unruhigen Schlaf. Die Handtücher wurden immer gewechselt (muss ja nicht sein, wenn man es z.B. aufhängt). Die Einrichtung ist sehr schlicht, vielleicht etwas zu kühl.
- Wenxi (8/5): Nice experience - The breakfast is great. We were worried about self-check in yet the reception has left us with a quite straightforward instruction. We find our room and wifi password in a short time. The room for us is quite big and has a beautiful view. The ladies by the reception in the next morning are sooo nice :) and tell us a lot about the weather that day. Our bathroom has a wired smell. And a little cold by night.
- Arda (10/5): - Posto migliore in cui ho soggiornato.
Colazione ottima.
Posto isolato con check-in automatico.
Si vede l’aurora boreale.
- Kristina (9/5): - Great place to stay in the middle of nowhere, but still close to Vik. The rooms are fine, everything was clean, there's a kettle in the room and a microwave in the shared area. There's also a vending machine if you crave a midnight snack. The breakfast is served in a separate building, it's a classic buffet, everything was fresh and tasty. The only staff we saw was actually during breakfast time, they were very friendly and kind.
- Amanda (10/5): - Quiet - clean rooms - good breakfast - friendly staff.
- Charmaine (5/5): Very expensive for a very basic hotel -
- Bregje (9/5): - Ruime kamer met goede bedden en een heerlijke douche. Redelijk uitgebreid ontbijt. Donkere locatie, ideaal om het Noorderlicht te zien!
- Marles (9/5): -
- Maicol G (9/5): Bella sorpesa - A 15 minuti da Vik e vicino la spiaggia di Reynisfjara e dyrholaey lungo la ring Road.
Buonissima e vasta colazione.
Camere grandi e spaziose.
- Mier (8/5): -
- Cobi O (7/5): Functioneel hotel - Het ontbijt was fantastisch en de bedden waren goed. 17 km vanaf Vik, geen lobby, geen mogelijkheid om iets te drinken. We hadden een kleine kamer terwijl we voor 4 nachten hadden geboekt.
- Dimitra (9/5): Nice - Room facilities Hair dryer
- Orlando (10/5): - Farm feel, beautiful country vibe, views, peace.

- Raymond (6/5): - The hotel receives three and a half stars out of five but we found thst over generous. It claims a 24/7 reception but there was no one in reception when we arrived. Our room number and access code were written on a folded (and sealed) piece of paper.
The rooms are in a seperate block with a vending machine and microwave just jnside the entrance. Not what we were expecting for 3.5 stars.
The carpet in the hallway is quite old and there are stairs down to the last few rooms, making it a little difficult to navigate with heavy roller cases.
The room was clean but very basic. Their was a message apologizing that the TV had no connection and saying that the hotel was waiting for a service person to fix the problem. This was in October. We looked at other reviews from June that talked of the same problem! The wifi did work well tho', so we watched "TV" on our laptop.
Some of the 5 star reviews were given because of excellent restaurant food. That seems to be based on recommendations to a local restaurant. The hotel does not serve diner.
Breakfast was good, with lots of fresh fruit, meats and cheeses, and hot food etc. The breakfast staff were very helpful.
- Huib (6/5): Prima hotel nabij Vik - Er was weinig omgevingslicht zodat we het noorderlicht en de sterren konden zien. Het hotel was ook redelijk dichtbij Vik. Verder was het prima maar weinig sfeer. De kamer was schoon maar gedateerd. Het ontbijt was ook prima. De aankleding en sfeer.
- Robert (2/5): Avoid the place - Not much Walls paper thin, noisy and was like a cheap dorm room. Grossly overpriced. Breakfast just so-so.
- Reza (8/5): Gewoon prima! - Gewoon prima. Geen luxe, maar alles was prima geregeld
- Leslie (10/5): Super clean. Very friendly staff. Delicious breakfast with many options - Away from the city lights Potholes on road to property
- Shivani (10/5): - I felt safe and comfortable here
- Lucia (10/5): - Great breakfast, the location is near the route but far enough to be quite.
Big room with great windows and view.
I was able to see northern lights from the room.
- STEFANIA (8/5): - Location and room was good Breakfast was ok but 1h late. At nite it's not easy to find room location
- David Robert (10/5): - The staff, location, and property were very well kept and easy to find. The proximity to the lower portion of Iceland and the village of Vík and attractions made it very desirable.
- Mayuri (10/5): - Loved the location and the breakfast
- ENRIQUE (10/5): - La vista desde la habitación Nada
- Pilar (10/5): Definitely would stay again! - It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the rooms are nice, very clean, comfy. What is outstanding is the breakfast buffet. Best one I've had in Iceland! Lovely people, everything was great!
- Yao-En David (7/5): -
- fred (10/5): -
- maria jose (8/5): Limpio pero sin infraestructura para comidas y cenas - Limpieza Muy alejado del pueblo y no hay posibilidad de cenar en el alojamiento, el desayuno mejorable
- Kinga (10/5): -
- Christina (9/5): Spacious room with comfy bed, superb breakfast - Spacious room with comfy beds, superb breakfast As we were in room 2 we could hear noise from the hallway and every time the front door was shut
- Delphine (5/5): Hôtel étape, correct, mais impersonnel - Hôtel correct, mais impersonnel (dommage car il y a du potentiel...). Chambre propre (mais très minimaliste), petit déjeuner correct.
Hôtel adapté pour une nuit d'étape. Certes dans un beau paysage, mais isolé (il y a un distributeur automatique à l’entrée pour des boissons ou snacks). Il faut se rendre à Vik pour avoir quelques restaurants (environ 25 minutes de route).
Nous conseillons d’aller manger à Vik au restaurant Sudur, ambiance et cadre au top. Nous avons aussi mangé au restaurant de l’hôtel Dyrholaey à 10 minutes de l’hôtel, un bon buffet, mais beaucoup de groupes touristiques. C’est un self check-in, il n’y a pas de personnel à l’accueil, ambiance très impersonnelle et froide. Même si propre et dans un beau paysage, nous sommes déçus par le style d’avantage « motel » qu’hôtel. Un peu cher pour la prestation.
- Igor (7/5): - Overpriced.
- MICHEL (8/5): -
- Diana (10/5): Gelungener Aufenthalt - Sehr ruhig gelegen.
Das Personal war sehr freundlich .
Das Frühstück war ausreichend
- Lukáš (6/5): -
- Nancy (10/5): -
- Jing (10/5): - Front desk and breakfast service staff are very friendly. Hotel is clean and location is good.
- Mariel (10/5): Lo recomiendo - Todo Todo estuvo perfecto
- Tamas Imre (10/5): -
- Felicia (7/5): - Holul si întrarea erau destul de vetuste.
- Piotr (9/5): Nice place for few days holiday - Very good breakfast. Very helpful staff. Good location. Comfortable beds. Mediocre room equipment and room decor
- Betty (8/5): - My email confirmation provided information for just one room but we had reserved two. Multiple emails to the property prior to arrival to confirm we had two rooms went unanswered which was very unnerving because we were flying in from the US and going straight to the hotel without knowing if we had the rooms we needed. The self-serve check in was not secure. The property provides a piece of paper with your name on the outside and on the inside the folded paper is the room number and electronic door lock code. Because it is just a folded paper (not inside an envelope or taped/stapled closed) everyone has access to all of the door lock codes. I wonder if they even change the door lock codes between guests. The breakfast provided was well stocked and outstanding. The property is not close to town so the provided breakfast was very helpful to have.
- Rahul (9/5): -
- Paolo (7/5): -
- MADDALITHIRUMALA (9/5): - Good breakfast Expensive
- Juli (10/5): Lieblingsunterkunft auf Island Roadtrip - Meine Lieblingsunterkunft auf unserem Island Roadtrip!
Sehr schöne saubere Zimmer mit tollem Bad, inkl großem Waschbecken und großer, richtiger Dusche (in Island keine Selbstverständlichkeit).
Frühstück sehr gut und reichhaltig, inkl Pancakes :)
Ca. 15 Minuten Fahrt von der kleinen Stadt Vik i Myrdal entfernt, mit dem Auto ist man außerdem sehr schnell bei Dyrholaey, wo man abends zahlreiche Papageientaucher sieht.
