Very friendly staff, good food and nice swimming pool, highly recommended. Good location and nice bike paths. Plenty to do outside include visit the old hot tub, in walking distance from the hotel. The breakfast has everything what you need for a good start.

Best keept secret. All in one. Food, Icelandic nature and peaceful place. Swimming pool, nature pool, historic places, restaurant and great rooms. Fyrsta flokks matur, Frábær þjónusta og rólegt andrúmsloft í sveitasælu.

I've visited last night for 1 night and everything was amazing! The hostess accepted us with a smile on her face and helped us with everything we asked. We booked triple room, the room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was very tasty! Go visit!

The place was very good and most importantly, the host was amazing and nice! Definitely recommend!

The place is great. We came for one night and the hostess was very kind!

Simple, comfortable. Breakfast and dinner were included 👍 The location is fairly out of the way, but also nice in its seclusion.

My wife and I stayed in a private cabin at The Castle Guesthouse over Christmas and into early January, 2026 and we had a wonderful time. The cabin was cozy, peaceful, and perfectly suited for a winter stay, offering both comfort and privacy. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it easy to relax and fully enjoy the beauty and quiet of Iceland in winter. A lovely place that we would happily...

We stayed one night in one of their cabins and it was perfect. The cabin was very cozy and in such a great location, just a 30 second walk to the beach. Would definitely stay here again. Host was very welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed.

Very nice place lead by friendly and welcoming people. Stunning view at the sea, comfortable beds, clean room, nice common kitchen, books and leaflets with info about Iceland... Definitely a perfect place!

Wow what an amazing place to stay. The location of The Castle was just perfect on the waterside with a welcoming hot tub overlooking the bay. We stayed in one of the “dolls house “ within the grounds and it was exactly what we needed after the drive to get there. It had everything we needed for our stay. The lady host was so friendly and helpful, telling us about different places to visit in the area...

A great place for a night or two on your way around Iceland. It would also work as a base for longer if that suited. We had one of the self contained wooden units which also had access to the house for breakfast and use of the other facilities. It was warm, exceptionally clean and the breakfast was a great addition. Beware its remote location if you need access to lots of shops and facilities, otherwise...

Our stay at The Castle Guesthouse was enjoyable thanks to its simple and cozy atmosphere. We stayed in a clean, comfortable cabin. Breakfast wasn’t included, and the kitchen was small – we had access to just a microwave, kettle, and toaster, which was enough for light snacks. A big plus was the rabbit in the enclosure right next to the cabin, which we really liked. The location is quiet and perfect...

arrived soaking wet and was happy about the warm shower and that the woman collecting the fees suggested to sleep in one of the unfinished huts instead of putting up my tent! this made everything much easier and it’s crazy how friendly she was. could even sleep until midday in there, having a lot of space and no tent that gets almost blown away by the wind, haha. they are building 3 cozy warm huts...

Clean showers (free to use), nice bathrooms and an outdoor sink for rinsing dishes. Also had a clean drinking water pump. Someone came around 8pm to each camper van and you were able to pay her with card or Apple Pay.

The property location was convenient to local sights and the rooms were spacious enough. Had the weather agreed with our visit, it would've been the perfect location for viewing the Northern Lights. The parking lot and sidewalks could be improved at the property so that it's easier for guests to move their luggage in and out of their rooms to their vehicles. The beds were comfortable. There was no...

We stayed here on our way to the west fjords. It was a quick overnight stay. We ate dinner at the hotel and the food was good. Breakfast was included. We took a nice walk around town in the evening and also in the morning. There’s a grocery store in town which is in walking distance from the hotel. We had a private bathroom.

The room was clean and the staffs were simply fantastic. I would stay again

A great guesthouse with nice rooms and showers. Beware however, that there is NOT a kitchen or fridge available for guests like is shown in the ******* posting photos.

This is a lovely place! We stayed here for one night and can only recommend it. The owner is a really nice Icelandic guy, who can tell you a lot about his country and give you helpful travel advice. The room was in a separate house with a common room in the middle and (if I recall correctly) 4 bedrooms around it. Our room was very lovely and totally new. It had a cosy atmosphere, a super comfortable...

I really enjoyed my stay at Ljosaland! I arrived later in the evening and got set up in my room. The room was one of 4 I think in a building with a common sitting area. The place is really beautifully designed and clean and crisp! The main lodge is warm and inviting with a cozy fireplace room just near the dining room. Natural wood details abound with clean white walls, wooden tables and leather...

Stayed at this hotel after two days in Westfjords. Room was comfortable. restaurant was excellent, we enjoyed dinner and a full breakfast the next morning. Hotel staff was courteous, friendly and helpful. Recommended.

For one - two nights it is good to stop there. Nice and welcomed young staff. Modest but good breakfast (in hotel price not included). The price is slightly expensive (as everything in Iceland) for what is offered. However, room was clean, shower and WC OK. In the room kettle + tea/coffee available. Wifi was fast and good working. For each of two rooms there is in front of the doors sitting area....

We stayed for three nights at ‘Gil’ with Nialls and Krippa. They were friendly and attentive and were able to provide us Nialls’ delicious beef burgers whenever we asked…each meal was 3,000 Krona, excellent value. Each double room set-up has an area set aside give you coffee, kettle & microwave, cutlery & crockery. There is also a hairdryer. Free parking outside your room

The host are so nice and friendly. They are really taKking care on their guests and can give you good advices where to go in Iceland. The rooms are really cozy and clean. And the good thing is you can also eat there. I can really recommend this accomendation.

Absolutely fantastic. The house, the rooms, the location the host. Beautiful and authentic farmhouse.

Beautiful house surrounded by stunning landscapes! Our favourite stay in Iceland, and the drive there was one of the best. The hosts are great, you can tell they have put a lot of care into the house and the comfort of their guests. The kitchen is well-equipped, breakfast is good, beds are comfortable, and everything is extremely clean. They have a book for guests to read with tips on local thermal...

The rooms were spotless and beautifully decorated, offering a cozy and comfortable stay. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpfull, making us feel right at home. All of this set in a stunning, peaceful location.

Location with little light pollution to see the Northern Lights! Beautiful house!!

Well-renovated Icelandic house with a cozy atmosphere and meticulous attention to detail. The pleasant wall colors and ample natural light in the room create a welcoming ambiance. The window offers a lovely view, and the simple, light breakfast, personally served by the owner, adds a personal touch. The minimal light pollution makes it an excellent spot for catching the Northern Lights when conditions...

Well-renovated Icelandic house with a cozy atmosphere and attention to detail. The pleasant wall colors and great light in the room create a welcoming ambiance.

Arthur and Caroline were extremely welcoming and excellent hosts. If the weather had cooperated it would have been and excellent place to see the stars and perhaps the northern lights too.

Very comfortable room. Clean fresh. Great staff

I was travelling with some old friends and we stayed for two nights and had dinner there once. The rooms are ok. My bed was like out of HC Andersen fables, one mattress on top of another. I was worried I might fall off the edge so I placed the chair at the edge. I slept like a log. The place is very quiet there and they have a good view towards the south, over the bay. There is no sitting room there...

Staff was so friendly and we loved walking to the waterfall behind the lodge!

High pricetag and far away from the main road High pricetag and far away, bed good and shower. Would not use this hotel again

An absolute gem! The lodge was clean, well-maintained, and appeared either fairly new or renovated. The countryside was beautiful and serene. The large deck boasted a view of the bay. My husband, sons (ages 17 and 12), and I enjoyed a beautiful hike up the mountain with waterfall and had a relaxing soak in the hot tub before bed. The room was spacious and clean and had a private bathroom. The...

Very good place to recharge your body battery on the way. Great equipment in the kitchen, great quiet rooms and good shower. Warm and calm. Koffee machine is additional great addition. Option to make room dark.

Stayed in Oct 2024 Really lovely place, rooms were clean and cozy. Common area was well equipped with kitchen appliances and everything was spotless. Breakfast spread had a great variety. Unlike the other reviews, we did not face any issues with checking in.

We enjoyed our stay, this hotel is very clean and has a huge fully equipped common kitchen with refrigerator, electric stove and a coffee machine free for all hotel guests to use. The included breakfast spread was good, see photos attached. The only concern we had was the late notification of your self check in details, however it was not an issue as the staffs were there to help us when we arrived...

I was initially worried (after reading other reviews), and the place looked empty when we arrived, but I was surprised at how good this place is. Yes, it does have self check in, but many places in Iceland do this. The room was very clean. The shower was the best one I’ve had this week, and we’ve stayed at different places each night. The continental breakfast was amazing! It had much more variety...

After reading the references here, I would like to add my experience. The place is just fine. Self check-in works, breakfast is served. The WiFi works in the main building, there are cool chairs with beautiful view. The rooms were clean, the furniture is a bit older but who cares. We stayed here just for one night and it was a good choice on the way from Akureyri to West Fjords. So don't worry about...

The hotel is simple and basic - which is why it is inexpensive. The self check in makes sense to lower cost but could be better executed. We didn't receive an email with self check in instructions prior to our arrival (we booked only one day in advance) and the phone numbers provided we always busy. There was a email address at the front desk which responded within 15 minutes. Once we had the info...

By far the best place I’ve stayed in Iceland. After staying in six different locations along the ring road, this one exceeded all expectations. The location and views are stunning, and the farmhouse-style home has such a warm, cozy feeling. The décor inside really captures that rustic charm. I can’t wait to stay here again.

Very clean Hotel room with a mini fridge and a smart TV. The staff was really friendly and helpfull. We loved the breakfast and the dinner. The hotel is located at a farm and you can see a few animals! We loved that! 😊

We didn't stay in the place. We just stop for lunch in the restaurant. Cute place with a convenient location if you need to have lunch in the ring road. The food was nice, the burger was great. The meat was ok, the portion is a little small for the price. The service is good and places is really pretty.

I have stayed at the hotel twice, went a couple of times to the restaurant and now I went to the new baths and dinner. Everything was so good, food excellent, service excellent and the baths so cozy. They seem to be still working on the bath facilities but quite obvious that they are ambitious in providing an memorable experience for their customers.

The food at the hotel's restaurant is excellent. Try the Lentil Steak. It was a new gastronomic experience, especially in a wonderful way. High protein with an exquisite taste. The lamb that I had was super tender and all in a great experience to take the significant other for a fantastic meal.

Stopped for dinner on my way from Reykjavik to Akureyri. Had the “Hraunsnef Burger” and it both filled my stomach and pleased my soul for the remaining trip. Highly recommended for the whole family ... the best bite on Highway #1 between Reykjavik and Akureyri.

Staff is nice and informative. Very good.

Room was spacious. Breakfast and stass were good.

Best hotel Ive stayed in so far in Iceland. I've been to 6 hotels so far. The room and bathroom was a good size. The bathroom I had was themed a bit like a volcano. Plenty of electric plugs in the room, a TV. Breakfast was the best selection I've had so far. This hotel has an elevator which was great to not carry bags up. All great things on this hotel. Staff in the restaurant was not too helpful....

Best hotel in the area Comfortable bed Tranquil environment Delicious food

We stayed here overnight as part of 8 day Troll tours. Hotel is in the middle of nowhere with no other shops, restaurants around Rooms are nice sized with big windows, comfortable beds and clean. Bathroom was reasonable except for no shower door. There is a hotel restaurant with limited menu and average service. Food was good though.

Good room, clean room and good facility. There are a lot parking.
