Great accommodation with great location in Hofn, multiple restaurants around the area and gas station with food right next door. Friendly hosts quick to respond!

Turned out ok but many flaws/issues
Choices are limited in the area but I have to believe there must be better for a comparable price. Despite Hotels.com listing ‘24x7 front desk’, there isn’t. The sign in reception says to check your email for the room number and the access code. But I never received an email. Heaven knows what you do if you arrive late at night as the automatic doors from the parking area are also keypad secured after dark. The room itself was large although probably did not make the best use of the space with a massively oversized bathroom almost the same size as the rest of the room. Next problem was the huge parking and adjacent petrol station seemed to be an attractive skateboard/e-scooter/football venue for the local 12 year olds. Clearly not a lot for them to do in Hofn on a Friday night. The noise of all of this was becoming a nuisance but no one onsite to assist. Fortunately it must have been bedtime as the noise stopped. Breakfast was optional extra and so we opted out. But a spin off benefit of being next door to a petrol station is there is a mini market store which also served some hot food. Hofn has a good number of restaurants but the hotel is 15 mins walk from them (at the port). Back to the hotel room itself there was poor check on details. One curtain runner was broken. No soap in the dispenser by bathroom sink. No plug in bathroom sink. Toilet seat too small for the toilet. But bed comfy and no noise during the night. For one night it was ok

Steer clear of this place
We didn't see a single employee from the hotel the entire time we stayed there. There was no breakfast option despite supposedly there was one. The parking lot was incredibly icy and I slipped and fell, hurting my back. Specifically, Room 101 had many issues including: the over bed lights did not work with one missing its switch and the other having a burned-out bulb, the couch had a broken leg at the left end, the wooden chair had a broken back and was dangerously unstable.

Good night stay in Hofn
This place was a good one night stay along the Ring Road. We got in late and left very early so didn't interact with any staff. Check in was very straightforward and all of the directions were emailed to me before hand. It's a no frills guesthouse so there wasn't anything spectacular about it. Beds were not the most comfortable but they were ok. The bathroom is very large. Overall i think that if you're looking for a place to stay overnight and want a good price you should consider this place, Didn't here any noise from other guests all night. One convenient thing about this place is that it was nect to a gas station which was very convenient since we needed to fill up fast and catch our early morning tour back at Glacier Lagoon. Didn't try the breakfast but it was offered.

Was so surprised about this place. I was dreading but really didn't find anything else better for price. But this a little gem. It's self check-in, have modern touches for opening your door, very clean. The breakfast across the street I didn't get to use because I got confused in the times. But great room.

There was a sign at reception saying “be back in 5 minutes” but no one was there from 8-2am. The hotel offered wifi, but it didn’t work...when we called to ask why it wasn’t working (since no one was at reception) we got a confusing reaponse which said it would be back on tomorrow afternoon. Since we were only staying the night, it really didn’t help us. After we asked, they did offer a discount...but still. If you’re looking for a place with wifi, like we were, this isn’t really the place for you

An easy to find, basic well presented hotel with rooms along a central corridor and check in using a code which was emailed to us. A member of staff was easily contactable by phone and appeared quickly when we needed them. Tea, coffee, hairdryer, good shower & comfortable beds. Even the pull out bed qas comfortable. There was a good choice of continental breakfast items served in a separate building.

Comfortable, not flashy
The hotel is conveniently located, but nothing flashy. The room was quiet and the bed was comfortable. The continental breakfast was better than most, but nothing spectacular. There are several restaurants a few blocks away (a short drive). If you're looking for something super romantic, this is not your place. If you are driving around the ring road and are looking for a comfortable room that has nearby restaurants, this is a nice choice.
