A good location for a hassle-free holiday in Hallormsstaður, Mjóanes accommodation is a guest house surrounded by views of the lake. The property features a garden, barbecue facilities and parking on-site among other facilities. Boasting free shuttle service, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. The guest house features mountain views, a children's playground, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. We used the hot tub and sauna, which was great after a long day of travel. And we saw beautiful northern lights at this location. Elsa was kind to show them to us as they started up, and informed the other guests next to us also. They were a spectacular show of northern lights, and one of the highlights of our trip. We also got to give the sheep a bottle. So cute!
