The place is very spacious and comfortable. It’s the ground level of a house with two rooms for rent. There’s a big kitchen, a shared living room with a TV, couch, books, and even baby toys. The bedroom was excellent, with a very comfortable bed and a baby crib. There’s also a washing machine with a dryer, which was very convenient.

The owners are extremely friendly and helpful. Out of all the places I stayed in Iceland, this was by far the best.

The Teigur couple are very kind. The appartement is located just in front of the sea and the shipwreck. There are 2 washing machine, nice kitchen and a big fridge. We enjoyed.

Sweetest old couple that introduced themselves and gave us the rundown of the living situation and the town (gave us a whole presentation is was kind of funny). Even had 2 bikes that we took for strolls around the town. They certainly care a lot about their services have laundry machines if needed. Nice shower, (smells like sulfur when hotwater) and nice living room and rooms.

Incredible place to stay over whilst travelling Iceland, most at home I’ve felt anywhere along my travels here, access to kitchen, living room, washing machine, dryer anything you could want for a good reset! The couple are extremely good hosts and helped us with any of our questions regarding travel destinations and recommendations, will definitely stay again next time I’m in Iceland

Very kind and welcome ownersand very clean until guests arrived in other room. They (two men) sat outside our door at the common table in their underwear until after midnight smoking and drinking, and left all of their items in the shared bathroom. Needless to say it was not a peaceful stay, but no fault of the hosts! Just a chance you take in a shared home.

Staying in Akranes on business for a couple of nights, the Teigur guesthouse was a perfect choice. A warm and friendly welcome, the guest house has a homely feel. Rooms, kitchen and bathroom were nice and clean, laundry facilities available too.

The accommodation is very nice and clean and it has a home feel to it, kitchen is fully stacked with all you need for cooking and there is ample parking space in the yard. The real win of this stay is the hosts which are such lovely and helpful people, feel free to ask for any info about the area or the life of Icelandic people in general and they will gladly fill you in. Thank you for having us.

Super great people!! Very cosy warm atmosphere and everything is shining clean.

When we arrived we got some dinner tips and where to find what in town. There is even a breakfast basket in the fridge that you can eat and a fully equiped kitchen.

Our 11the place we booked in Iceland during our road trip and I can really recommend this guesthouse to book, five stars without a doubt!

It's our 15th day in Iceland. Teigur is the best guess house we've stay. The price is reasonable and you will find its a really guest "house". You will have everything like your home. It's only 2 rooms, so you won't share living room, kitchen, bathroom with too many people. And it's about 40 mins drive to Reykjavik. If you are lucky, you might see aurora in the lighthouse. It's really amazing.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
