Bathrooms are ok, kitchen is ok too but no dishwasher and ventilation doesn‘t work properly so there is always a strong food smell.
Cannot rate the staff, as this is a self check in facility with no reception/ staff on site.

If you're looking for fancy accommodation with new furniture and lots of space, this may not be suitable for you. However, if you're interested in meeting locals, this is a great opportunity. Some reviews mention the smell of horses in the house, but it's not like the house is filthy; it's most likely just some rugs or shoes in the hall (if you have a dog, they're probably the first thing you smell in your hall). I should mention that our room was clean and odor-free. The kitchen is small, so I wouldn't recommend any big cooking. We spent just one night here. We cooked some pasta, took a hot shower, chatted with the house owner (a nice guy), and got some good sleep - perfect for this purpose.

Loved staying in Grundafjord. The host was lovely and the apartment very comfortable and had everything we needed. It felt more spacious than in photos. We loved how it looked over the harbour and was an easy walk to restaurants and grocery stores.

Grundarfjordur is a convenient town for exploring the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. It has a good grocery store and two excellent cafes for coffee & treats. A little food truck is open until the end of August. We stayed here 4 nights so we would have time to explore and I'm glad we did because one day was too stormy to see sights and another day wasn't optimal.

Destination port for cruise ships, correspondingly temporarily overcrowded. All pilgrimage to Kirkjufell (known from social media), which is accordingly overcrowded. Deterrent example of Icelandic mass tourism. :-(

Definitely not worth the extra drive time, town is not set up for tourists at all, hotel was 350 euros, which was very high compared to all other night on our trip. We spent the same, but had much better accommodations. Much more to do in the other towns

The town/village itself is really quite sweet.
The town/village itself is really quite sweet. We didn't spend much time there, but we did drive in to use the grocery store and walk around a bit. Kirkjufell Mountain is really quite stunning and one of the most recognizable Icelandic landmarks. You can just sit and look at it all day.
For such a small town, Grundarfjordur is packed with loads of hotels, guesthouses, shops and places to eat. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

This small mountain gets a lot of positive press and yes, it's kind of cool but really not all that great. We were trying to find it the last time we were here (three years ago) and drove right past it. There is a parking lot on the left as you are leaving town and you need to park and get out for the mountain to "look" like it looks in the pictures you see everywhere- with the waterfalls, etc.
There are numerous sights around Iceland that make this one look like a joke. Still...stopping for 5 minutes to get a picture or two will be worth it but you won't look back on this one and remember how awesome it was.

A gorgeous setting next to Kirkjufell Mountain!
A gorgeous setting next to Kirkjufell Mountain! It is a very convenient base for exploring the Snaefellsness peninsula. Dont miss the wonderful restaurant, Bjargarsteinn Mathus, where our meal was truly exceptional.
The location is excellent. On a clear day or even rainy day you can look across the ocean to see the beautiful Kirkjufell peak. It’s located only 10 minutes out of town (Grundarfjordur) and right by a scenic golf course. We stayed in the duplex cottage which was clean, cozy and comfortable. The breakfast was wonderful as well. I would love to spend more time here but our travel plans are taking us elsewhere.
Easy check-in with keybox. Pretty standard hotel room in a very good location, close to Kirkjufell. Good place for an evening walk along the harbour and cute village. Breakfast was good and staff friendly. We also had dinner in the Harbour Cafe (where breakfast is served) - it was OK but not great for the price you pay. We loved the soup but the lasagna was not great, cake for dessert was clearly defrosted.
The guesthouse feels like a little cosy inn, and we got to meet other guests when making breakfast in the shared kitchen. The best things we like are (1) cleanliness and completeness of the small room, shower, sink, toilet and nice bed all included, and (2) a spectacular view of Kirkjufell, particularly at sunset.
The little town Grundarfjordur is quaint. We had dinner at Cafe 59 two days in a row.
The interior of the hotel was extremely clean and tidy. The staff were so nice and helpful- my friends and I had instant noodles and even though the kitchen was already closed, they were still kind enough to offer to heat up our food and provide some hot water. The rooms were nice and clean and lots of space. Right outside our window was the Kirkjufell mountain too, which was a nice bonus :)
The location of the DIS Cottages is excellent. Perfect view of Kirkjufell, it was much closer than I expected. The room was clean and comfortable with huge floor to ceiling windows and a deck. I was in Iceland for 2 weeks and stayed in 5 different places, DIS was easily my favorite. Anne and Sebastien both stopped by to welcome us and make sure everything was OK. Highly recommended.
Wonderful 2nd floor apartment close to Kirkjufell. Unit 6 was amazing with the view of the mountains, water and nearby horses. The unit was super spacious and well equipped. Bathroom was huge and had a nice walkin shower. Loved the deck Beds comfy too. It is a short drive to visit Kirkjufell multiple times to get photos too.
The view from the yard over Kirkjufell Mountain is amazing if weather allows you to enjoy it. Apartment is spacious and clean. Plenty of parking just in front of the building and shops near by. Kitchenette is a bit old fashioned but does the job and if needed there is a shared kitchen in the building.
This lovely hotel had comfortable rooms, a helpful and kind staff, and an excellent and delicious breakfast. It is set in a gorgeous surrounding, near an exceptional restaurant, Bjagarrstein Matius. I would highly recommend this as a place to explore the beautiful Snaefellsnes peninsula.
Beautiful location and great host, Valberg was very generous with his stories and information in response to our millions of questions about farming in Iceland. We too have sheep and horses so it was great to hear the about local Icelandic ways. Thanks from Helen and Warwick
Like everything about the property, the host is very nice and kind, the house is clean, cozy, stylish and comfortable, and most importantly, the location and the view is just unbeatable. Hope we can spend more nights there if we have chance to visit Iceland again.
Cottages were really easy to check into, clean and well equipped. Our favourite place during our 9 day iceland stay where we stayed at around 7 different hotels. Kitchen was really nice and well equipped. Also excellent value for money.
Great property. It was beautiful, spacious and right in town. The hosts were amazing and so accommodating to me and my family. I cannot wait to come back. I highly recommend reserving this space for your next stay in Iceland.
The room was nice and clean and had a beautiful view. It felt like we were staying in a hotel while we were in the room but the communal kitchen area gave it a hostel-type feel. Black-out curtains worked great!
The property was spacious. We had plenty of room. We like its close proximity to the Kirkjufell Mountain. We saw the northern lights there, about 10 mins drive from the hotel. Pretty convenient.
Beautiful location with stunning views. Quiet and set in the heart of Icelandic landscape. The kitchen facilities were clever and beneficial as guests on the road.
