Very cozy and warm little guest house near the air

Have an early flight to catch so I had to book something near the airport. The room is well above expectations, greet by the owner, the room is clean warm and cozy, there is a fully equipped kitchen next door. Sadly I had to get up at 4am leave at 5, definitely look forward to stay there again.

Richard, the host and owner was extremely kind, friendly and accommodating. We were lucky enough to go during a not so busy time and we were able to also use his services for pick up and drop off to the airport and couple other attractions. The place is located about 15-20 minutes from The Blue Lagoon and about 30 to 40 minutes from Reykjavík, so depending on what your plans are it could be a convenient location (about 15-20 minutes) to Keflavik International Airport.

It is a basic but complete facility. Very convenient if you need a place to stay close to the airport. Staff is very friendly. Location seems a bit weird. In the middle of a subdivision? or an industrial area?

Great spot, thank you to the guesthouse host!

Arctic Wind is a great place to stay, especially if you want to be outside of Reykjavik or closer to the airport or Blue Lagoon. The rooms are well appointed with every element considered to make for a comfy, easy stay. The beds are top notch and we slept well, even in the long daylight period of year (thanks to the blackout curtains as well). Ryszard is fantastic and made our stay even easier, giving us the tour of the room and all amenities, helping with airport transportation, and pointing us to the nearby restaurant before it closed for the night. Vogar is a very small town but the people are all friendly and welcoming and made this one-night stay the highlight of our two-part visit to Iceland.

The room was extremely small about 10' x 12' roughly. The bathroom also small and the shower was challenging to close the door while inside it was so small. It was a clean room and comfortable.
