Everything about this hotel was great. It’s newly made- and the design is beautiful with big glass windows everywhere. Their hot tubs and sauna are also incredible and these overlook a lake and a glacier. We could see all this from our room and even the northern lights. Add to the facilities- the exceptional service. (All but one server at their restaurant was incredibly kind) All but one staff went out of their way to help and accommodate all our needs. And finally their breakfast- I have no words. And I don’t say this easily. I’ve stayed at hundreds of hotels. And most have just the same spread. This one was truly exceptional. We ended up spending way longer than we planned and got delayed because we couldn’t stop eating. Don’t think twice- go for this hotel. You’ll not regret it. This is not a criticism- just an advice for the hotel to add maybe some more vegetarian options to the menu- or if they’re not available to accommodate guests with a kids menu- or some bread starters. I still rate the hotel 5/5 but one server was quite unhelpful with providing us more options. And this was a slight hitch in a more than perfect experience. And the person at the reception totally helped us out and accommodated us after!

We spent just one night but we loved the accommodation. As a family of 3 we booked a private room with a private bathroom and loved the space. The hostel itself is very clean and in a residential neighbourhood. Everyone who was staying was very nice and the communal kitchen was easily accessible to everyone. We walked to the town and that was very doable. The town is quiet but there are a number of things to see in the area. We really enjoyed our stay. We would definitely recommend it.

Very disappointing stay in June 2023. We were supposed to stay for two nights but left after only one. Our room was very clean and had a lot of storage space but as we laid down to go to sleep we noticed a large patch of black mold way up in a corner of the ceiling. We tried to switch rooms then but the hotel was full. My daughter and I both have a severe mold allergy and in the morning we were both symptomatic. After breakfast I noticed paint marks on the ceiling where someone had previously tried to cover up the mold. Looking outside we saw a massive hole in the roof right over our room that could let even more water in. The breakfast hostess and manager were both very kind and apologetic. They said they knew about the issue and offered to let us change our room. Knowing that there was such a significant problem with one room made us skeptical about the other rooms and we decided to leave. It also left a bad taste in our mouths that the owner would rather cover up a health hazard instead of fixing it. In short, this hotel needs some repairs. If you can avoid room 116 you’ll probably have an ok stay. Other than the mold we didn’t have an issue with service, cleanliness, breakfast, or noise.

The hotel is located next to the gas station at the entrance to the town and the rooms are simple and clean. There are supermarkets and various handicraft shops nearby. It is especially recommended that the restaurants in the town eat lobsters. Each has its own characteristics. In short, it is worth living in the town for two days.

250€ a night and the rooms are completely HORRIBLE, small, depressing, smells, awful shower, just the worst one in Iceland. The food at the restaurant is overpriced and gross. The bed was uncomfortable and the room was so dark and dingy. Staff at breakfast is hostile by the way, be careful.. Hotel Geysir charges 70€ more than this place and you get to experience luxury and premium accomodation. While Hotel Höfn would not even rank as a roadside MOTEL in my experience. Charging almost the same price of a premium hotel when really this place should be no more than 150€ a night. These people need to get down to earth, their hotel ain't all that. Stay somewhere else if you can...

It is a very good choice. Although it is a shared bathroom, it is not inconvenient at all. When I booked it, I didn’t bring breakfast, but it was actually provided. Although the hotel is not big, it feels very warm, just in the town. All aspects are very convenient.

Hepburn really had to set the hotel early, because it was too late, so I lived in two places with my friends. I thought this cheap would be very bad. The result was much better than I thought. Although it was a public bathroom, the small apartment felt neat. The kitchen equipment is all available. It is a good choice for overnight stays. The neighbors are of high quality. The used utensils are cleaned up and quiet. They are much quieter than each other. It is much better than another hotel with more than 2,000.

The Old Airline Guesthouse is an extremely nice guesthouse at a great value. It is situated strategically between two of Iceland most majestic sites, the Vatnajökull Glacier/Iceberg Lagoon and Hvalnes Nature Reserve. The Old Airline Guesthouse owner and host Sigga was absolutely wonderful. My wife and I had a small but awesome room with a view overlooking the Hofn bay area. Patrons can also enjoy a similar view in the upstairs common area. Local shops and restaurants are within walking distance. A continental breakfast is included in your stay. Being a guesthouse you do share a bathroom, other than that the Old Airline Guesthouse is truly a gem worth staying.

Long story that I will try to summarize as best as I can. We visited the guesthouse August 28th, paid a high rate as it was summer but the location was good and the space was comfortable for 4 people. I would have given this place a great review if it weren’t for what happened afterwards. The only issue we had was the sofa bed was uncomfortable. The next morning we very briefly took the mattress off the sofa bed (it was a very simple set up, just two Velcro straps attached to the base frame for easy assembly). We put it back exactly how it was shortly after. We then notice a man is outside our window looking in. My partner looked out the window and made eye contact, we found it very odd that someone was hanging around but just assumed maybe he was on the phone and didn’t realize people were in the room. A few minutes later we heard a knock on the door and it was the same man. He was very frustrated and agitated, asking us several times what our “problem” was. We said we had no problem everything was good. He then again asked rudely what our problem was and we were confused and said why do you think there is a problem? He then shows us a picture he took from outside our window INTO our room showing the mattress off the sofa bed. We were very shocked and uncomfortable that this man had taken a picture into our room, we had 3 girls inside getting ready for the day and thought this was very inappropriate. We explained to him again that there was no issue we just had to adjust the mattress and put it back exactly as it was before. We closed the door on and made a reminder to let the owner know when we got back from the trip of this negative experience. I thought they would be understanding and apologetic. I reached out to the owner upon returning home, a week after our stay. Explaining that we felt uncomfortable having a strange man hanging around outside (this was hours before check out too), taking pictures, being rude when he never explained who he was or what he was doing there. To my surprise, they were defensive and gave no apology. They are now threatening to contact *********** to charge me for damage (conveniently they are claiming this a week later, not right after our stay) when I have proof nothing was damaged. I never write bad reviews but wanted to warn others of this experience.

Fantastic apartment, spacious, very well furnished, also equipped with a fairly large television, induction cooker, kitchen top and very large living area, very spacious shower, two sinks so as not to force those who book to take turns to use the bathroom, just a few steps away from a pizzeria and a restaurant with parking space underneath, highly recommended
