Everything from majestic location to absolutely amazing cleanliness to the kitchenette and so much more. The apartment from inside is super modern, huge bathroom and if you are lucky you can see northern lights from inside the apartment. Most stunning apartment I have ever lived in. Would happily come back and stay again.

We love the breakfast. Hosts make sure that we had enough and they were attentive until we finish eating. The breakfast has everything, cereals, seeds, pancakes, eggs, bread, meats, and so on. The place could be seen as little and simple but the truth is that once you are in, the ambient is very cozy, nice, clean and comfortable. Another thing is that is near from everywhere between the city, golden circle or if you need to go to the beach. Please not hesistate when the rooms are available. We really enjoy the sauna also!!! My family and I went to 3 different types of stays> cottage, hotels and houses in Iceland but this will keep in our hearts!!!

The cabin was spotlessly clean, well appointed, and very comfortable. The hot tub was such an enjoyable respite at the end of the day.

Great location, quiet, very cosy and comfortable. The host was very welcoming and kind, showed us how and when to hunt for the northern lights (and we saw them the same night!). The breakfast was amazing, the atmosphere was very homely. Wish we could have stayed here longer, it was great place to rest.

Great location, very clean, excellent social area, inside was hotter than we ever imagined, great bathroom. Stayed in three different hotels during our trip to Iceland. This was the fist also cheapest. It set the bar really high. Oh yeah and it was really quiet as well.

Quiet, clean, charming retro style rooms. The host quickly obliged when we asked for extra pillows. Breakfast was included in the price. It was OK - bread / toast / cheese / meats / cereals / tea and coffee. Nothing wrong with that, but nothing special either. We would happily stay at Guesthouse Fluđir again.

Although it is a guesthouse, we were allowed by the hosts to use the fridge and have a late dinner in the dining room. The rooms were very quiet, excellent breakfast with multiple choice of coffee. The town is very clean and beautiful facing glaciers.
