Top Reykholt Hotel Reviews

Hotel Bifrost

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very friendly. The room was furnished as if they wanted you to feel at home. You could tell there was some age on things, but wasn’t dilapidated."

Hotel Husafell

10/10 Excellent

"Great facility, very helpful attentive staff and excellent food (both breakfast and dinner)! Only suggestion for morning Buffett -add a coffee machine and/or large thermos of drip coffee. With only one machine queue can be long and time consuming just for a cup"

Hotel Stafholt

8/10 Good

"Very accommodating staff. pleasant simple rooms. Good for an overnight stay.No TV’s in room which was actually nice."

Hótel Á

8/10 Good

"Perfect stop for a quick stay in the area. Views from the dining area are beautiful. The breakfast buffet (included!) was just right to start the day. The rooms are pretty basic but are set up for Northern Lights viewing."

Basalt hotel

8/10 Good

"It was a wonderful place to stay in a remote way station of Iceland. It was an almost two hour drive from the airport, with the latest 5-6 miles down a nicely maintained black gravel road. Once there we loved it and the kind and helpful owners and managers."

Hótel Varmaland

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was clean and the breakfast was fantastic."

Luxury, Modern, Amazing River/Mountain view with Hot Tub. Winter/Summer Holiday

10/10 Excellent

"The house and surrounding area was beautiful. The house was super clean and had everything we needed. Wished we could have stayed longer!!"

The Hvítá Inn

8/10 Good

"The hotel is located in a remote area connected only by a rough gravel road with plenty of holes. The room is tiny, merely 10 sq meters. One of the beds is sacky. The shower spills water and wet the rest of the bathroom. Dinner was disappointing, but there really isn't any other choices given how remote the hotel is. Breakfast is acceptable with no surprise."

Hvítá Trucks by Ourhotels

10/10 Excellent

"My partner and I were passing thru and stayed here for one evening. Out of all of the places we stayed this one was one our favourites. It was just so cozy and unique. Our check in was simple, we were not greeted by staff but were given easy instructions. We stayed in one of the trucks. The room was small very small.. but it was a fun and unique experience and fine for an evening. We did notice many other rooms that were bigger but we really wanted to stay in the truck! We also had our own private bathroom which is always a plus. What we really liked about this property was its restaurant! You have to take off your shoes when entering but wow, it was just a great atmosphere. Our server was so friendly and kind, he even offered us fresh tomatoes to try straight from the garden. They have cozy sitting spaces, I noticed a dart board, they even have a really cool and unique pool located outside. Breakfast was included. Overall this was a great find and a fun stay. I do recommend this place if you’re considering. Great for solo travellers, partners, groups and families. Thank you for the wonderful stay!"
