Very stylish (kind of eclectic, with modern and rustical mixed) and well equipped accommodation. You get almost like your own suite, not only a room.
Check in and out was easy, did not meet with any staff or host.
Quiet location with a beautiful mountain view.
Many parking spaces.
We really liked the bed and sleeping area :)

The property was good it had a great kitchen but unfortunately when we stayed there was a very noisy group ,
They stay up until 3am and left the kitchen in a disgusting state ,

The location of this hotel (it really really is remote) is fantastic for the views especially from the room.
Also the Icelandic horses walking by and the curlews everywhere. Absolutely nature central!
I loved all of the above and stayed up watching the sunset.
Dinner choices very limited but the lamb was absolutely perfect.
Lovely staff who made me feel very welcome.

My stay at the guesthouse was a bit of a mixed bag.
My stay at the guesthouse was a bit of a mixed bag. On the positive side, the self-check-in process was a breeze, and I was pleasantly surprised by the level of cleanliness and the spaciousness of my room. The facilities, including the WiFi and kitchen, were top-notch, and I had no complaints on that front.
However, there were a few quirks that left me feeling a bit unsure. The surrounding farm was somewhat peculiar, but I must admit that I'm not exactly an expert on farming, and I didn't book this place for its agricultural charm.
The absence of any human interaction with the host was a tad disconcerting. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, and a friendly welcome or some local insights would have been appreciated.
One noteworthy detail was the water quality, which had a distinct sulfur smell. While this might be normal for the area, it would have been helpful if the host had mentioned it beforehand.
In summary, the guesthouse had fantastic facilities, but the lack of host interaction and the peculiar farm surroundings left me with mixed feelings. Plus, a heads-up about the unique water scent would have been a considerate touch.
However, all in all, good to very good value for the money.

This small town is a good base for exploring the area, including horse riding at Icelandic Horse Tours in Helluland and a trip to Drangey Island with Drangey Tours. There is a nice exhibit on the Icelandic Civil War (ca 1230) and Iceland's oldest bakery. A short walk up to the cemetery provides a nice view.

Wonderful museum in town ( fun for kids - has virtual reality experience) More museoms in surrounding area. Many more areas to explore and activities to partake in. Excellent tourist information staff in Varmahid.
When we first arrived we thought we had made a mistake booking this hotel but then we realised just how much character this 1880 built building had. The Staff were lovely. The room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The natural hot tub was hot and bathrobes were provided to wear from your room to the tub. We were given complimentary tea and coffee in the reception area. The breakfast room downstairs was an Aladin's cave of historic articles. The continental style breakfast was excellent.
The whole place was really nice! They've just finished refurbishing the common area and it looks like some 5 star hotels! The entrance was not entirely finished, but they were putting a lot of work and effort into it.
We were the only guests the night we stayed, and it was great!
We were allowed to use the hot tub too, which is outside, and provides an overview of the amazing valley the guesthouse is in.
It is a farm too, and you can see horses and some other animals!
The best quirky, unique old hotel of our entire 2 week trip! Character, charm, personality throughout. The room was comfortable. Spacious room big enough for four adults. It's an old hotel that is very well maintained. The restaurant downstairs is just as charming as the rest of the hotel and breakfast was terrific! I'm sure they serve a great dinner fare but we did not partake. There is also a nice hot tub that we didn't use. We loved staying here!
Upon check-in, we were offered the opportunity to upgrade to a room at the Tindastool Hotel & we took it. The keystone in the fireplace downstairs in the dining area says it was built in 1820 & the owners have exerted a huge effort to provide modern comfort (plumbing, electricity, wifi) and safety (sprinklers, smoke detectors). Our room was clean, cozy & comfy, the beds & comforters were excellent. We had no complaints with our stay!
This is an annexe attached to the oldest hotel in town. We had the biggest room and a view as well. There was heaps of space for our bags and cold weather gear. (We had a lot)
Breakfast was very good, in a basement dining room that was decorated with heaps of memorabillia.
There was a private natural hot spring in the grounds that was nice and hot.
Staff were lovely and did our washing for us.
We arrived in the evening after a long drive so were delighted that we could make use of the hot tub outside, it was so warm and relaxing! The hotel itself was really charming with an antiquey feel to it. We were given a huge room which was very quaint. It was very clean and comfortable and we loved the history of the place. The staff were lovely and helpful too.
Hotel interior design is stunning! very "retro" like, was very nice to stay in. Breakfast was nice, love these little croissants!
On the night we were there we also manage to view the northern lights from our room window, so that made it even more special! Location was also convenient, middle of the town, very easy to find.
We felt very welcome and enjoyed our stay. The house has a fantastic view - especially the sunsets over the mountains and the sea were breathtaking - and is not too far from Sauðárkrókur where you can have good food or take the bus. The rooms, bathroom and kitchen were all nice and clean! We‘ll definitely be coming back!!
Beautiful setting in the village of Holar, Iceland. So much historical significance here - too much to mention here - look it up on Google. Comfortable room, very clean, ease of checking in, good breakfast, individual router in the room so excellent wifi connection, great shower.
I would recommend this place to anyone thinking about staying in Sauðárkrókur. Perfect if you're traveling alone and probably for a couple aswell. It was really cozy and clean, definitelly worth the price, wish I could stay longer.
Very good garage apartment, good value for money. Seems pretty recently made up and had all the essentials. Good location within walking distance from everything @Sauðárkrókur.
Such a charming hotel, oldest hotel in iceland! Lots of nice touches in the room we haven't seen anywhere else on our trip. Loved the hot tub and the friendly cat!
