    friendly staff
    cozy cottages
    hearty breakfast
    sulfur smell

    Had an amazing time with my friends! The outdoor adventures were epic, especially hiking the scenic trails and biking around the beautiful landscapes. The staff were friendly, and the cozy cottages were perfect for our group. Don’t forget to enjoy the hearty breakfast—they really had a great spread!

    We did face a bit of an issue with the strong smell of sulfur in the hot water, which was a little uncomfortable for everyone. It was kind of off-putting, especially after enjoying the clean, fresh options elsewhere in Iceland.

    cozy cottage
    prompt breakfast
    cramped cabin
    lack of hot water
    dismissive staff

    The cozy cottage room offered an authentic feel, and the prompt breakfast service enhanced the experience. Porridge was a delightful highlight of the meal, adding a warm touch to the mornings. However, the cabin was cramped and poorly lit, making privacy difficult. We faced multiple issues, including a lack of hot water affecting our stay significantly. Moreover, the staff's response to our concerns felt dismissive and unhelpful, contributing to a frustrating experience.

    small room
    disruptive noise
    crowded dining

    The rooms have a charming Viking theme, though mine felt a bit small. The breakfast was decent with local options, and the restaurant had a warm atmosphere with live music. However, the noise from the laundry during the night was quite disruptive. It's a nice stay overall, recommended for those who appreciate unique decor.

    hiking trails
    delicious breakfast
    family-friendly
    limited kid activities

    We had a fantastic family stay here! The kids loved exploring the nearby hiking trails, and having our dog with us made it even better. The food at the on-site restaurant was a highlight, especially the delicious breakfast each morning.

    For dads, it would be great if there were more activities for kids.

    huge bed
    harbour view

    Just a good match for spending night in Hafnarfjordur with reasonable price. The huge bed and views over the harbour were great. Check out the restaurant bar opposite for a cozy spot when it rains.

    warm towels
    northern lights

    Family with children quirky getaway

    We had an unexpected surprise when we caught a glimpse of the Northern Lights from our room after a long day of sight-seeing. The bathroom heated the towels so nice, it was like wrapping ourselves in comfort after those chilly Icelandic nights.

    It wasn't exactly inexpensive, but for what we got, it was still reasonable.

    cozy breakfast
    unique experience
    small bathroom
    dirty hot tub

    I had a nice stay that included a cozy breakfast. I liked that I could take breakfast back to my room easily. The location was convenient for exploring and getting to Reykjavik. I saw the northern lights at a nearby park. It was a unique experience that added to the trip. Being single, I enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere.

    The bathroom size was not ideal. The hot tub could have been cleaner.

    The Cottage was cozy and warm, making it feel like home. Beds were super comfy, perfect for my bad back. The space was peaceful, ideal for relaxing, and I didn't feel gross about the bedding! Also loved that they agreed to let us take breakfast back to our room.

    would happily return

    The rooms were warm and quiet, equipped with a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and a private bathroom. The hot tub and sauna were amazing for relaxation after a day out. Breakfast had a good variety with fresh fruits. Location was nice, close to shops and restaurants without being noisy. Very cozy atmosphere overall.
