"Our stay at Torfhús was truly memorable. The reception and restaurant building is beautifully designed in the style of a traditional Viking home, with wood, turf, and fascinating artifacts throughout. Every detail felt thoughtful and immersive, especially the stunning couch crafted from an old fishing boat.
The food was excellent throughout our stay. Breakfast was extensive and delicious, and I especially appreciated the care taken with allergies — during my visit they even removed coconut from the buffet to ensure my safety. Dinner each evening featured a different four-course menu with optional wine pairings, and every meal was beautifully presented.
Our hús was equally impressive, with exceptional craftsmanship and thoughtful design. It included two bedrooms, a bath, and a full kitchen with appliances hidden behind elegant wooden paneling. The warm lighting and antique-style fixtures created a cozy, authentic atmosphere throughout.
My only disappointment was the porch and private hot spring tub area, which felt too public and lacked privacy. Additionally, the tub temperature could have been hotter to make the experience more enjoyable.
Overall, Torfhús is a truly special place — luxurious, atmospheric, and unlike anywhere else we have stayed."
