We had an absolutely great stay at this hotel! Everything exceeded my expectations, making our trip unforgettable. The room was perfect: beautifully designed, incredibly comfortable, and had a super charming atmosphere. It truly felt like a cozy retreat after a long day of exploring. The dining experience was another highlight. The restaurant was excellent, offering delicious and high-quality meals. Coupled with a perfect breakfast each morning, I was fully energized for my adventures. Finally, the reception was really helpful and professional throughout our stay. The most impressive service, however, was their genius idea to alert guests about the Northern Lights! Receiving a timely call about the visible aurora was a fantastic, unique touch that ensured we didn't miss the spectacular show. A huge thank you to the entire team for providing such a wonderful experience. Highly, highly recommended!

Got stuck in Seyðisfjörður in a snow storm and this was the nicest and coziest place to be till it was over. Good people - the staff and the other guests! After the storm I got the see the landscape outside my window which was just stunning. I relied on public transport and the bus stop is just on the other side of the road.

The hotel is located on the fjord, the view from the windows unforgettable. Room very comfortable and bigger than I expected, beds very comfortable. From the hotel there is an underground passage to the restaurant, very interesting, with wax figures representing history. The restaurant where breakfast was served was beautiful, with a terrace facing the pier overlooking the fjord. The breakfast was very good, fresh local produce and finally bread that is not "toast" :)

It's a special place, a leap into a past rich in tradition and a present filled with care and pampering. The establishment is excellently managed by wonderful women, and their hospitality is unbeatable. Comfortable, clean, charming, and home to one of the finest cuisines in Iceland! I recommend it not just as a place to sleep or eat, but as an experience!

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.

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.

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.

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.

An Unbelievable Gem at an Unbeatable Price!

An Unbelievable Gem at an Unbeatable Price! I was initially drawn in by the incredibly affordable rates, which led me to expect a rather basic lodging and dining experience. To my absolute delight, I couldn't have been more mistaken. The room I stayed in was nothing short of fantastic, and the restaurant left me in awe. The staff, without exception, was both incredibly helpful and genuinely friendly. However, the real gem here is the owner, who boasts an impressive depth of knowledge about the local wildlife. Every one of my numerous questions was met with boundless enthusiasm and a wealth of expertise. It's safe to say that I'm eagerly anticipating a return trip, set for the upcoming summer or fall season, in pursuit of a memorable fishing adventure. This place exceeded my expectations on every level, and I can't wait to experience it all over again.

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)
