South Iceland Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent
"Liked the property and location. Check in easy, thank you. The room was very small, mostly the bunk bed. Not a problem in itself but it could be helpful to have a smaller chest to give a bit more room to those with two pieces of luggage."

Volcano Huts Þórsmörk - Highlands

8/10 Good
"Would have been helpful to know at the time of booking that needed separate bus ticket to go to the location. Fortunately the property reached out so we knew this ahead of our trip. Unfortunately, we didn’t know the accommodation also required you to bring your own sleeping bag. Luckily the facility had linen to “rent” but of course with everything in Iceland it came with a hefty price."

"Skalakot Manor was a gem surrounded by stunning scenery, and the most beautiful Icelandic horses You really feel like you’re staying in someone’s home as a very special guest. The bedding was top-notch and the dining room food was fantastic. It is pricey, but very worth it. And the staff is helpful, warm and welcoming. We can’t wait to stay there next time."

"Overall we enjoyed our stay. The place is very small however so we would have enjoyed more space. The place had food in the fridge when we got there (from the previous tenants), the shower soap dispenser was broken and we had to buy toilet paper."

"Stayed one night in a double room here and In a remote location on a farm and surrounded by beautiful scenery. It’s minutes away from plane wreck and Seljalandfoss which made for a healthy hike on a summer evening. Everything is self explanatory/ service and more of a hostel feel than guesthouse or hotel which we didn’t mind at all. They say there is no breakfast but they have an excellent coffee machine and cereals for you to start your day. Only complaint was the smell in our tiny bathroom but the room was spacious, very well appointed, and clean."
