The hosts for this lodging were great, providing lots of info to help us make the most of our time on the island. The Guesthouse was plenty comfortable and the bonus was they also had a breakfast area, with some basics - the breads were wonderful! We took advantage of the offered refrigerator space, also. If we ever come back to Grimsey, we will be glad to stay with the Básar again. ##### Mark A Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine 29 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Belle auberge bien entretenue à Grimsey.

The hostess totally looked after us in everyway, including picking us up at the ferry (unexpected!), giving us a free lunch, driving us to visit some free ranging goats and feeding them bread, welcoming our questions about the island, it's history, it's current inhabitants of 8 families, the puffins, and any other things that we were curious about. Very engaging and generous. The guest house was flawless and the dining area had a multitude of antique photos of the history of the island. She, her place, and the island were amazing! ##### Barry Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### My Phuong 6 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service I love this place, I would refer to my friends ##### My Phuong Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Guðbjörg Sigurveig 20 Aug 2022 ##### Guðbjörg Sigurveig Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Homin 4 Jul 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Homin Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### esther 15 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hospitality Grimsey island is a bird watcher paradise. The guesthouse is the ultimate in hospitality. It Was raining when the ferry docked and even though the distance to the guest house is minimal, Asloug was waiting to pick us up with a smile... both Asloug and Gagga were always ready to drive us around if we were tired of walking (we never tired). And were knowledgeable about the island, history and great spots. If we go back to Grimsey, we will stay there again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DF8CE08B25FFE51F06E548B0F4E11C35E0981F5C1623745651453.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### esther Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Ásdís 11 Jul 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Skemmtileg ferð, sérlega var Ragnhildur góður gestgjafi, keyrði okkur eins og við vildum, þver og kruss um eyjuna.
