Top Hestvatn Hotel Reviews

Hotel Selfoss

10/10 Excellent

"Nice"

Lambastadir Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay here very much. It was clean, tidy, comfortable and the staff and owners were very thoughtful and helpful. It was nice being able to chat with other guests in the common dining area. We didn't use the sauna or hot tub but they looked very inviting. The farm's sheep were very photogenic, and it's not a petting zoo. The thoughtful and personal decor was beautiful and I enjoyed talking with Svana about the needlework hanging on the walls. She was also kind enough to point out to this knitter and weaver the amazing yarn store right across the street, which had a great selection of locally sourced and dyed yarn, hand-knit Lopipyesa sweaters/hats/neck warmers, knitting kits, and fleeces."

Hotel Grimsborgir by Keahotels

Heima Holiday Homes

10/10 Excellent

South Central Guesthouse

8/10 Good

"Basic but clean and comfortable. Well maintained with roomy communal areas. Large communal kitchen area. Good location."

Veghús Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Las habitaciones están perfectas y la cocina está bastante completa, recomendado."

SAGA Circle Villas

10/10 Excellent

"Loved staying out in the country with views of mountains and northern lights. Beautiful villas, just wish there was laundry in units. Only issue was with getting assistance on check in with only toilet in unit missing parts and not working. Figured out after messaging with "Vladdimir" over 1.5 hours that it was just a chatbot that wasnt actually doing anything about our concern like it said it was. After calling from hotel around the corner around 7:30 pm, they did get us an upgraded unit, around 10:30 pm, but we had given up getting a solution for the night so didn't see their email reply until morning. Everything else was great. Would definitely stay again."
