We had apartment "B", but I think all apartments in the building were recently renovated. I am not sure if we were not the first guests in this apartment. Everything was new, check-in was easy, and the missing towels for the third person were delivered within minutes. There was a lot of space and a fully equipped kitchen. There is also a wishing machine with a dryer. I definitely recommend this place!

Nice, helpful staff. Very nice new and clean room. Comfortable bed and enough space in the room. The bathroom was also big, especially the shower, and clean. The breakfast was delicious. The location is very good. We could do our laundry there for a good price (Make a note of the things you put in the laundry and check that everything is there after washing) :)

We stayed for one night on Sept 5. Very convenient location. It was a beautiful apartment with an amazing harbour view and Mountain View’s around. There was a supermarket, museum, fashion store etc right in front of it. Although the apartment was on the second floor, they helped us with our luggage. They guided us to a Geo Thermal pool close to their premises and it was complimentary from the Hotel. The apartment itself was very comfortable, spacious and well equipped. The awesomeness of this Hotel was mind blowing and we totally recommend it for a relaxing and peaceful stay.

A nice town with plenty to do in the surrounding area.

A nice town with plenty to do in the surrounding area. During our stay, we got pizza from Askur Pizzeria, which was phenomenal, especially after a long day of travel. The main reason we chose to stay here was because we wanted to see the puffins at Borgarfjarðarhöfn, and hike the waterfall circle. Egilsstaðir was a perfect central location for us to see everything we wanted to in the area, and then some. The Netto nearby allowed us to get whatever we needed for our stay. We skipped the Vok baths, as one in our party was pregnant, and she could not enjoy the hot waters. We would definitely stay here again.

A welcoming off-the-beaten-path simple youth hostel, ideal for a short stay while exploring Iceland. Though some features show their age, the space is clean, comfortable, and well organized. The true highlight is the cosy kitchen and dining area, offering a stunning view of the fjord — a perfect spot to unwind and take in the scenery.

I love this little town. To me, it is a perfect stop for a night if you are driving the entire ring road. That area from Djupivogur to Höfn, and just beyond in either direction is some of THE prettiest landscapes in Iceland, in my opinion.

Our one-night stop turned into two due to a heavy storm. The hotel handled the situation very amenably. Good food in the hotel and also at the café and village shop in Breiddalsvik itself, which is about 5 km away. Fantastic scenery all round. Motor museum and brewery in the village with the opportunity to go for horse rides directly from the hotel.

Firstly - the road to the area has recently been sealed and is EXCELLENT. Many older reviews mention the horrid mountain gravel track that is no more (and it would have been bad especially in inclement weather). There are a huge number of hikes from a few hours long to a few days that can be done in the area and if you really want to explore and get the most out if it stay a few days at least, especially if the weather turns. I did see a little camp ground and there are several accomodation options. For the photographers and bird watchers out there there is plenty to keep you occupied. And no review is complete without mentioning the puffins :-) They are a few (4 or 5?) km from town proper There is parking up top with a cafe (I did not go in but hubby did as he was cold and sick of puffins - he said it was average to say the least but did have wifi) a short set of stairs down to the little harbour then a short set up on the puffin cliff. If someone is a bit immobile then you can drive (but not park) then down to the second set of stairs. The stairs are a bit narrow and have two wooden walkways up top. I have been to many different bird areas and puffin cliffs and this is simply the most accessible and easy to view, especially for small children/elderly as there is very little effort required in getting to the location and there are burrow within 50cm of the board walk in some cases, on all sides. There is a sheltered bird hide at the end of one walkway. Note there are also Elders breeding here and a vast array of sea birds flying past at al times with feed for their young. Everyone seemed very respectful of others with moving aside to let people pass on the narrow stairs (as there are great vantage points from there)

Stafafell Nature Camp was what I expected. My only suggestion would be for them to trip the shrubs on the trails to the tents as they scrape against your bare legs. Having a clear clear to to your tent would be nice.
