Volcano Huts Þórsmörk -  Highlands

Volcano Huts Þórsmörk - Highlands

8/10 Good
"Would have been helpful to know at the time of booking that needed separate bus ticket to go to the location. Fortunately the property reached out so we knew this ahead of our trip. Unfortunately, we didn’t know the accommodation also required you to bring your own sleeping bag. Luckily the facility had linen to “rent” but of course with everything in Iceland it came with a hefty price."

Skálakot Manor hotel

Skálakot Manor hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Skalakot Manor was a gem surrounded by stunning scenery, and the most beautiful Icelandic horses You really feel like you’re staying in someone’s home as a very special guest. The bedding was top-notch and the dining room food was fantastic. It is pricey, but very worth it. And the staff is helpful, warm and welcoming. We can’t wait to stay there next time."

Welcome Lambafell

8/10 Good
"The location is stunning, and especially wonderful if you are exploring the Iceland southern coast. There is no staff on site. The staff were not especially responsive. We stayed at multiple other hotels that contacted us as our check in approached (a day or two in advance). We had read that the staff at Lambafell were hard to reach, so I messaged the day before, and got no response. And then the morning of our check in, with no response. We finally received a message with check in instructions a few hours before check in. It would be much appreciated if the staff were more responsive to messages. The room was small but clean and charming. The breakfast was solid."

"Overall we enjoyed our stay. The place is very small however so we would have enjoyed more space. The place had food in the fridge when we got there (from the previous tenants), the shower soap dispenser was broken and we had to buy toilet paper."

Guesthouse Vellir

Guesthouse Vellir

10/10 Excellent
"I would like to comment on a review sent by Michele for her stay on August 5. I was a guest here at this wonderful guest house at the same time as her and her abusive husband. I was walking by the lobby and heard her rather large husband absolutely screaming and these 2 young women. He was upset about breakfast from what I understand and even though I saw them in the dining room eating breakfast with no issues but as soon as they ate everything they wanted they apparently were not satisfied and wanted a refund. They should have said something before they finished their whole breakfast if they were not satisfied. I’m not sure where they are from but everything is expensive in Iceland and if they could not afford it then maybe going to a cheaper country would be better for them. But her husband was clearly trying to intimidate these nice young ladies who did give him a refund. Luckily I was the only guest still to not check out yet and had to intervene as he was getting very aggressive and I could see these poor women who are in a very remote location were getting very scared. The woman at the desk even offered to call the tour guide as they were friends with the guide. If I were the guide I would cancel their appointment as there are long waiting lists for these tours I wouldn’t want this bully anywhere near my tour. He said he was going to ruin their business by leaving bad reviews so I just wanted to say this place is amazing and please check it out"

10/10 Excellent
"The breakfast was a mix of food unique to Iceland and also common enough for the picky eater. We loved it! The vibe was so different from American hotels which was also why we loved it so much. This was the classic cozy, peaceful experience we needed :)) I recommend this place! "
