    This hotel is stunning. The horses and the local wildlife did not disappoint. The hostess was lovely and the food amazing. Our room overlooked the fjord as did the restaurant. This place is perfect if you want peace and quiet. We walked to the local church at the foot of the mountain opposite the hotel and I could not hear anything other than the beating of my own heart. Sheer bliss.

    The restaurant prices are steep (main dishes are €30 - €50!), but this seems to be typical in Iceland.

    Situated in a beautiful, isolated spot. It snowed during our stay and it was magical. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable. The bed was a dream. The couple who run the hotel were both very friendly. We ate dinner in the restaurant both nights we were there, the food is above average for such an establishment. We loved the horse steak, so tender and perfectly cooked! No northern lights during our visit as it was too cloudy. But the private terrace would have been the perfect spot to enjoy them.

    The location of the hotel is in a remote and wonderful landscape and i think that makes your stay in Iceland more authentic. Also the personal is very friendly and breakfast was really delicious with fresh baked bred and local products. We stayed during our trip in 6 accommodations and this was by far the most beautiful. The rooms are very spacious and everything was very clean and comfortable. Through the big windows you can enjoy an amazing view with the fjord. Also because you are in a remote place you have great chances to see the magical northern lights.

    Beautiful location, we saw the northern lights after dinner! Loved how the rooms were individual outside access so we could sit on our balcony and watch the lights in the evening. The restaurant was a very short walk up the hill and excellent for dinner and breakfast.

    Everything! What a wonderful hotel! We stayed for one night. The room was big and comfortable with a small balcony. The bad was king size which is not common in Iceland and it was very comfortable. The dinner (which has to be preorderd) and the breakfast were great with good variety. The staff was really nice and helpful. This is a good place to see the northern lights.

    This was a great guesthouse. An excellent breakfast was included, and the overall price was very fair. Out in the country with beautiful views. We would definitely stay again. And of course very quiet.

    Breakfast was ok, with a reasonable choice. Scrambled eggs did not seem to be freshly scrambled though - they had a rubbery texture.

    Amazing location and views across the valley. Great to stay in a friendly, family run property.

    The rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable, and quiet. The staff is great as is the restaurant. The best part however is the view from the room. Amazing! The floor to ceiling windows provide a view of the river extending to the fjord, truly mesmerizing - sunset and sunrise were unbelievable. Went for hikes, met cattle, horses, and sheep along the way but spent a lot more time just sitting on the patio or in the room and taking in the views. It was so calm and peaceful. Definitely recommend.

    All perfect. Only very minor comment is about breakfast not offering hot coffee beverages like cappuccino or latte and no honey.

    The location, the room, the views. Everything perfect.

    Fantastic location. Large but warm and cosy room with brilliant views. Very clean room with a comfortable bed and great bathroom. Easy parking right outside the room. The highlight was the meal in the hotel's restaurant, which is amongst the best I've had anywhere. Lovely staff and good provisions for breakfast.

    Small menu for the restaurant which is to be expected for the remote location. However, everything was very good.

    Breakfast was ok. It was located in a very remote location so the limited menu was to be expected. However, the rooms were large and very clean and comfortable. The view was amazing, seeing a river flowing into the bay/ocean. Lots of horses around. Just a beautiful location and a large and comfortable room. Much larger than your typical European rooms which is what we had for most of our stay in Iceland.
