    Great value for money, with spacious rooms and a separate lounge area. The highlight was the incredible view of Kirkjufells mountain from our window, perfect for enjoying the sunset. The location was ideal for exploring the beautiful peninsula, and the staff at reception were extremely helpful and friendly.

    The breakfast could have been better with more variety in the options offered.

    We had a great stay at this hostel in Grundarfjordur! The room we stayed in was surprisingly spacious and had a separate space with a sofa and a big desk. We were lucky to have a room with a nice view of Kirkjufell, and we even got to see the Northern lights from our window one night! The self check-in allowed for flexibility, and there was a sink in our room, making it convenient for getting ready. The kitchen was also great for cooking.

    Nothing negative to say. 🌟

    I recently stayed at a lovely hostel in Grundarfjordur. The location was excellent, with all amenities within walking distance and a nearby car park. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the facilities were just what we needed for our stay. The Green House where we stayed was spacious and had a nice living room. The room itself was comfortable and had a great sized bed. There were also two bathrooms, which was convenient for the four rooms. The kitchen had everything we needed, even though it was a bit old. it was a great experience.

    I highly recommend this hotel.

    We stayed at this cute Guesthouse for 2 nights during our 8-day road trip in Iceland. Despite being called a hostel, all the rooms were private and nicely decorated. The shared kitchen and showers were clean and convenient. The central location was a bonus, and the lady who checked us in was friendly and helpful. The newly renovated rooms and bathroom were spotless, and the receptionist was super friendly. The kitchen was well-equipped for cooking simple meals. We also enjoyed the view of the mountains and the flexibility of self check-in. Having a sink in our room was convenient, and we appreciated being able to adjust the room temperature.

    100% Recommend this hotel.

    The room was spacious and had a separate lounge area, which was a nice touch.
