Top Skalholt Historical Site Hotel Reviews

Farmhotel Efstidalur

10/10 Excellent

"Really quiet and relaxing stay. Enjoyed a really good steak and beer at the restaurant with some ice cream afterwards. The room was clean and spacious. Would recommend!"

Golden Circle Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"These are wonderful cabins situated along The Golden Circle route. The amenities were just what we needed to make food for ourselves and the landscape surrounding the cabin was lovely to see each morning and evening. Highly recommend these cabins for any visit to Iceland."

Green Geysir Cottage

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay! Beautiful views and heated floors were a nice bonus"

Tiny Glass Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Just wow!!! The view and how the owners managed to build such a tiny cabin (as per the description) while using every inch of the cabin to make it useful and easy to use! Great job and we wish we stayed more than one night!"

Bjork Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic find! We really loved the spacious room and bathroom. Spotlessly clean and with all the amenities needed, including a small fridge, which was great. Lovely location with the stunning lake within walking distance and Fontana lagoon - which was amazing. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again if we’re ever lucky enough to come to Iceland again."

Buubble Hotel - Hrosshagi

10/10 Excellent

"This would not be for everyone but you have to be prepared to stay in a clear “igloo” like bubble. Staff was friendly and there upon arrival but it is a small cabin with 2 shared bathrooms and showers for everyone staying. There is a fridge and coffee if wanted. The only thing in the bubble is a very comfortable bed, a small light and electric outlet. Each bubble is private and there is nothing like looking overhead into trees and the sky. The bed was the most comfortable bed with plenty of down pillows and comforters. They give you a lantern if you need to use it for the evening. We woke up to the sunrise very refreshed. Definitely an interesting and fun experience."

Blue View Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place! Clean, comfortable, spacious and the hot tubs were amazing. Easy check in, quiet place with a beautiful view. Would definitely go back. Close distance to Secret Lagoon, The Geysers and Kerid Crater."

Veghús Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Las habitaciones están perfectas y la cocina está bastante completa, recomendado."

Skard Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Nice clean cottage. Very quiet! Extra pillows would have been great. jets in the hot tub!"
