    I love the free coffee and tea from this hotel. Nice friendly staff. The hotel sits in front of a lake. Boating and kayaking are free for guests but it was too cold for us. Free laundry service was definitely a great plus for our 18 day trip. We spent 2 nights here to go to Grímsey which was very convenient because it is a short 20 minutes drive to Dalvík to catch the ferry. Walking distance to the public pool and sauna. Beautiful Mountain View all around. The very best part was the free use of their professional kitchen. I was so happy to make some meals there!!! Great value and can’t wait to come back!!!

    Personally, I am not a fan of the all-in-one showers in with the toilet and sink.

    The accommodation was easy to find and easy to check in. The accommodation had great cooking facilities and plenty of room in the shared refrigerator. They also had a complimentary coffee, tea, and cocoa machine. The room was quiet. It was small but comfortable.

    The pillow is too high.

    We arrived earlier, so the staff made sure our room was made ready. Nice room, comfy bed, beautiful sitting area to dine in (no restaurant, but make yourself). The hotel really goes above and beyond, they're so customer friendly oriented! They offer so many free things to use, for example: They have a pooltable you can use for free, even kayaks! You can grab fresh towels whenever you want and if you want new linen on your bed you only need to ask.. Also free coffee machine.

    The property had all we needed. Excellent large shared kitchen which looks to have been built to support a restaurant. Large shared area for eating and relaxing. All the plates, cutlery, etc that you would need for meals. Industrial sanitizing dishwasher, so you can be assured the dishes are clean. Automatic espresso/coffee machine. Quiet sitting room upstairs. Good books on Iceland in the sitting areas, including books in birds. Tesla charger outside (but you can charge at the local pool for free if you have the correct charge cable for your car). Staff was super helpful! The room was very comfortable, washroom was excellent. We had lots of space in the room. The shared spaces in this building encourage interaction with other guests. It was very quiet when we were there. Highly recommended. Would definitely go back!

    This was my first time in Olafsfördur and at the Northern Comfort Inn and my expectations were exceeded 10x over. The rooms are great, the amenities are modern and cozy, the coffee is free and flowing, and the activities are abundant. All is included, from the billiards table to the free kayaks and équipement to be utilized at the stunning lake the property sits on. The owner is pleasant and helpful and conversing with him was another highlight in and of itself. I would highly recommend staying here whenever you find yourself in this charming northern town.

    There was nothing we didn’t like. Would go back in a heart beat.

    We loved everything here. The ability to use the commercial kitchen, access to washer and dryer, location, friendly owner, free coffee tea and hot chocolate 24/7. Beds were comfy, bathroom floors were heated. A 20 minute drive to Dalvik if you’re there for whale watching. Really good value for money. Awesome place - stay here!

    Curtains need to be black out curtains; wife wasn’t a fan of the wet bathroom (shower in the bathroom with just a curtain) but that didn’t particularly bother me.

    Liked being able to bring in my own food and eat in their dining area; each room had private bathroom; rooms were decent size and comfortable.

    Curtains in room were not able to thoroughly block the “midnight sun”, need to be true blackout curtains for the summer.
