Located at the foot of Vatnajökull National Park, Lilja Guesthouse offers accommodation along Ring Road 1 in Flatey. Höfn is 28.5 km away from the property and Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon is 51 km away. Great location, nice staff. We saw the most amazing Aurora of our lives there! I knew I would arrive at the hotel after the kitchen was closed, so I called them, they’ve sent me the menu by WhatsApp and let me order my dinner! So when we arrived they had everything ready for me to take the dinner away to my room.

Featuring sea and mountain views, Lækjarhus Farm Holidays is set in Borgarhöfn. Guests can watch the farm animals run freely in the yard. This property is 26 km from Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon.

All rooms come with a shared bathroom. Lækjarhus Farm Holidays features free WiFi . I loved the comfortable bed, kitchen with dishwasher, loft area with the chairs, the high level of cleanliness, very kind owner and the location in Kalfafellsstadur on a farm. It is very dark so it is a great spot to see the Northern Lights

Set next to Hof turf church, this hotel offers an on-site restaurant and free WiFi. Skaftafell National Park is 15 minutes' drive away from the hotel. Cape of Ingolfshöfdi is 3 km away.

Rooms are brightly decorated at Hof 1 Hotel and have either shared or private bathrooms. The room looked much better that the building (buildings) from the outside. Those looked bit older, but inside it's very nice and I think also renovated. Everything was very, very clean, huge thanks for that. and the receptionist? Keep him!!! Welcomed us very nice receptionist who spoke at least 4 different languages, it was the end of the day and he had still huge smile on his face, very patience, knew how to multitask because he was able to serve 6 different customers almost at the same time. He was doing receptionist, giving advices to other visitors, act as a waiter because we asked him for a beers, so really amazing stuff. Breakfast are also nice and you can choose whatever you want :)

This family-run guesthouse is set on a working farm, 30 km from Höfn in south-eastern Iceland. It offers a common room with free WiFi, along homemade ice cream from their dairy farm.

Views of the surrounding mountains and glaciers, as well as a TV and hairdryer can be enjoyed in all Brunnholl Country Guesthouse rooms. All rooms have a private bathroom. We stayed at Brunnholl Country Guesthouse during our trip to Iceland and were absolutely charmed by this original place! Tucked away in the middle of nowhere along the Ring Road, it’s the perfect spot to unwind, with a cozy and authentic atmosphere. The food was a delightful surprise—delicious, hearty, and made with care, making us feel right at home. The rooms are comfortable, and the glacier views are simply breathtaking. If we could have, we’d have stayed a few more days to soak in more of this hidden gem. Highly recommended!
