Featuring mountain views, Jökla Guesthouse in Skjöldólfsstaðir features accommodation, a garden, a terrace and a shared lounge. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. A super modern place, furbished with superb quality and style. The room is beautiful, spacious and the beds are very comfortable. There are three bathrooms, one of which is HUGE. The owner is really attentive, hard-working and ready to help you with anything you may need. It's the only apartment we stayed in during our trip around Iceland in which we could use a washing machine and a dryer. The fact that you share bathroom and kitchen with other guests might be a nuisance if you're on a tight schedule and these are occupied by other guests. However, this rarely happened, and with three bathrooms for 5 rooms, we only had to wait a bit to use the spacious kitchen a couple of times in 3 days because we were really unlucky and everyone wanted to cook at the same time. :-)

The guest house also features 2 bathrooms. The accommodation is non-smoking.

You can play mini-golf at the guest house, and the area is popular for hiking. Outdoor play equipment is also available at Finnstaðir, while guests can also relax in the garden. Everything is perfect. Despite being in a rather secluded location, my family and i absolutely love the house. The owner, helga, introduced his dogs to us which we loved!! If you love animals, this is a dream!

Set in a characteristic wooden house, Við Lónið Guesthouse is an accommodation in Seyðisfjörður. Rooms feature Scandinavian minimalist design, original wood furnishings and uninterrupted views of the fjord and town. everything - it was spacious, remodeled beautifully, and very comfortable. loved the balcony! was worth every penny and I felt pampered. we were on the top floor - note that the staircase is winding and quite steep. worth it, though, for the view. priced well too - a good value. highly recommended!

Curry house rooms is situated in Seyðisfjörður. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 3.9 km from Gufufoss.

Towels and bed linen are offered in the guest house. Lovely, comfortable guest house in a beautiful town on the Eastfjords. We went in November so the weather was a little wild, but the road to the town was clear. The town is full of beautiful art, gorgeous scenery, and nature! The room was great!
