This family-run guest house, off the Ring Road in southeast Iceland, is 7 km from Höfn. Free WiFi is available.

Haukaberg House's offers a bright accommodation featuring blackout curtains and private entrance. The house has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, all with a shower and hairdryer. This is an amazing guesthouse where you can find almost everything you need. We booked a triple room with a private bathroom, and it was fantastic. There's a washing machine, drying rack, and the kitchen is fully stocked with oil, salt, utensils, and cups—everything you could possibly need. The only downside might be the price, but if that’s not an issue for you, it’s absolutely perfect. It’s incredibly comfortable. It’s about a 5-minute drive to the supermarket in Höfn town.

This family-run guesthouse is set on a working farm, 30 km from Höfn in south-eastern Iceland. It offers a common room with free WiFi, along homemade ice cream from their dairy farm.

Views of the surrounding mountains and glaciers, as well as a TV and hairdryer can be enjoyed in all Brunnholl Country Guesthouse rooms. All rooms have a private bathroom. We stayed at Brunnholl Country Guesthouse during our trip to Iceland and were absolutely charmed by this original place! Tucked away in the middle of nowhere along the Ring Road, it’s the perfect spot to unwind, with a cozy and authentic atmosphere. The food was a delightful surprise—delicious, hearty, and made with care, making us feel right at home. The rooms are comfortable, and the glacier views are simply breathtaking. If we could have, we’d have stayed a few more days to soak in more of this hidden gem. Highly recommended!
