The Location was really close to the sights around Myvatn and next to a lava field. We really liked the breakfast buffet, they even had vegan options. Also it was possible to cook our own dinner at the kitchen of the hostel which was nice.

The host went above and beyond to help guests in the local area! Our car was stuck in a snow drift about 400 m away from the house, and he drove out at 9pm to rescue us and pull us out of the snow. The accommodations themselves were also fantastic. The kitchen was very well-stocked (with basic breakfast ingredients as well as cooking pots/pans), and we made good use of the washer/dryer!
Set on a farm next to Lake Mývatn, this guest house offers self-catering rooms and cottages with free WiFi and nature views. The geothermally heated Mývatn Nature Baths are a 10-minute drive away.

Location is great! So many things to do and see around! We also purchased the tickets to hot baths with a discount.
It's a beautiful lava field and lake system. Old volcanos and lava flows. Dimmuborgir is a legendary place where the Yule Lads sleep through the summer. Bear in mind that the summer can have hatches of midges.
Krafla Power Station, active geothermal mud pools, Mývatn Nature Baths.
If you travel in the winter it's a great place to see the Aurora as practically no light pollution.
Obviously it's not as nice as Akureyri, but I would say that as I live there

Myvatn Lake certainly has beautiful scenery and the weather is typically warmer than the coast. For the full service/hotel travelers I would recommend Fosshotel. For campers there is plenty of accommodations.

So much to see and do in this area!
So much to see and do in this area! Thankfully we were up and out just after nine! We packed in so much! Lots to see down the eastern side of the lake. Each activity offered us something different and unusual that we hadn’t experienced before. The thermal baths there, although smaller than the Blue Lagoon, are much cheaper and actually offer senior rates. Two pools, one warmer than the other and one sort of large hot tub area. Well worth the money! The cakes in the restaurant there and the coffee were some of the best we’ve had and are reasonably priced. They also have larger meals and soups on offer.

Myvatn is a beautiful lake, and the surroundings have plenty to offer to visit and for hiking. It has a great variety of scenic points and shorter and longer walks. At Skutustadir is a nice information centre that also a small exhibition explaining the origin of the circle of craters over there.

Although it was a long drive from the west of Iceland, it was well worth it. There are so many hidden gems: 2 grottos, a fissure off the beaten path, a nature bath that rivals blue lagoon, and so much more. It's also not crowded due to the location. Well worth the drive!
It was a great location close to Hwy 1
And the black out curtains were great. They also had screens on the windows so you could raise them
Without bugs coming in. Bed was very comfortable too!!
It was also very quiet and had a very nice breakfast selection. We stayed at another highly rated hotel which was a little cheaper but this one was BY FAR worth the extra money!! We did have a nice dinner at the Fosshotel before arriving at this hotel and it was very good with tremendous views from the restaurant.
Comfortable, well equipped lodge with 4 guest rooms and communal kitchen, dining, living area. Host helpful and provides good range of food to make your own breakfast. Very nice, well equipped kitchen, including washer / dryer which was very useful, and well used by guests whilst we were there. Good location not far from main road and very close to Lake Myvatn and its attractions. Supermarket not far away in Reykjahlio where there is also very good fish and chip take away.
Good modern hotel close to Myvatn. With some quirky decorative features to differentiate from blander, samey modern hotels. Queen room bit smaller than expected but not a major issue. Some good sustainable ideas like a voucher valid for money off food drink bill in hotel if staying more than one day and choose not to have room cleaned, towels changed etc.
Had hot tubs too but didn't get chance to use.
The campground hosts were very helpful in providing information. The huts are close to a supermarket/gas station and Myvatn lake seems like a vacation spot for the locals. I really liked having a porch to sit on at the end of the day. We used the kitchen of the hostel down the road. The campground bathrooms and showers were kept clean and were walking distance from the huts.
We had a great time staying here though we only stayed one night. As the hotel was over booked, and we were traveling with kids they helped us by arranging one extra bed in the room for free. The two restaurants on property were fine and we dined there for lunch and dinner. Myvatn nature baths were just 10 min drive from here. Overall we had a great stay.
The hotel is wonderfully located on Lake Myvatin right across from the pseudo craters. It is clean and comfortable with a terrific staff always willing to do anything for you including a wake-up call for the Northern Lights which are glorious. The breakfast is unbelievable with everything anyone could want. Highly recommended.
This is the best stay of our road trip, you can see the Aurora with Myvatn just by lying on your beds in the room and enjoy the heater, their room is near by the lake and the bed is facing the perfect scene with Aurora. We didnt sleep as we enjoy the Aurora and the lake view in our beds for whole night.
beautiful hotel with a minimalist design. great restaurant we recommend beef steak. very nice staff especially the one from Slovakia :) we will definitely be back in the summer. for sure you also have to visit myvatn nature bath which are really close
Superb hotel. Go for it if you are looking for a stay in Myvatn area. Great rooms and fantastic staff. Opt for dinner. We enjoyed dinner as well as breakfast next morning. We also spotted Aurora from this stay.
Aside from the great location in Myvatn and the friendly owner and staff - the breakfast buffet is spectacular with home grown and local food products. Easily one of the best breakfasts I have while traveling.
The location is very good, close to the lake. The owner of the property is a very nice person. had a nice and informative talk after dinner. This hotel is more a family house with a pleasant atmosphere.
super nice and modern hotel, large breakfast buffet, directly at Lake Myvatn, the restaurant is amazing also dor dinner. Glutenfree options available for dinner incl. really tasty gf bread
The property was super clean and conveniently located on the lake.
Easy drives to Lake Myvatn, Godafoss, Dettifoss, Namafjall geothermal area, Husavik.
