Nice location for trying to see sights around Vik. Bit of an older hotel but for the price it was a good value and a decent stay. Would stay again

Hótel has great views as it is up on a hill facing the Black Sand Beach, perfect stop for those heading East.
Hótel has some age, not much amenities but works for us just for one night. Cheaper rate than the hotels at Vik.

The views from this guesthouse were beautiful. It’s perched on top of a hill and you’re able to look out onto the water and black sand beach. Loved how rustic the reception and bar was. The lounge area was so cool, filled with vintage furniture and needlepoints. Highly recommend staying here and talking to people from
all around the world in the lounge or breakfast area.

Perfectly located hotel nestled atop a hill. Stunning views of the ocean and surrounding landscape. Our room was rather large and the beds were comfortable. During our stay we were able to watch the Northern lights from the hotel parking lot. Overall wonderful experience!

Great location with amazing views.
Staff was so kind to pack us a lunch as we were unable to make the breakfast.
Check-in was also easy with much help from the front desk.
