Top Hestvatn Hotel Reviews

Hotel Grimsborgir by Keahotels

10/10 Excellent

"Nice room with a comfortable bed. We enjoyed using the hot tub too. The tub/shower is hard to get in and out of and the tub is super slippery, I almost fell. Definitely had one of the better breakfasts with tons of options and was delicious."

Lambastadir Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"This place was great! Very quiet, clean, and had a good breakfast."

Hotel Selfoss

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It was a last-minute pivot to book here and we did not regret it. The front desk was very kind and helpful, checking into our room was a breeze, and the bar was a lovely place to unwind and grab a cocktail. It is conveniently located within walking distance of some restaurants and easy to access some activities. A lovely hotel and would stay again!"

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!"

Heima Holiday Homes

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property. Communication with the host was excellent. Highly recommend"

South Central Guesthouse

8/10 Good

"Basic but clean and comfortable. Well maintained with roomy communal areas. Large communal kitchen area. Good location."

Veghús Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

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

Hestheimar

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place! Cute little cabin on a hillside, delicious breakfast, helpful and friendly staff!"

SAGA Circle Villas

10/10 Excellent

"Loved staying out in the country with views of mountains and northern lights. Beautiful villas, just wish there was laundry in units. Only issue was with getting assistance on check in with only toilet in unit missing parts and not working. Figured out after messaging with "Vladdimir" over 1.5 hours that it was just a chatbot that wasnt actually doing anything about our concern like it said it was. After calling from hotel around the corner around 7:30 pm, they did get us an upgraded unit, around 10:30 pm, but we had given up getting a solution for the night so didn't see their email reply until morning. Everything else was great. Would definitely stay again."
