Borg Apartments

Good base for the South Coast, Highlands, Westman Islands

Reviewed By Kim T

We picked Borg Apartments as our base for two nights for exploring the South Coast and the Westman Islands. It could also be a good choice for Highland detours to Landmannalaugar or Þórsmörk. Before our arrival we got all the information we needed for contactless check-in. All apartments have key boxes. There were enough parking spaces for all guests. The apartment was a decent size with a fridge and a well-equipped kitchen (microwave, oven, pots/pans etc.). We had picked up groceries in Selfoss on the way and were able to self-cater during our stay. The location worked out well for what we had planned and I would not hesitate to book again.

Bakki Apartments & Hostel

Located in the quaint seaside town of Eyrarbakki, your gateway to the Golden Circle and the South Coast. Gullfoss, Geysir, Thingvellir National Park, the famous Blue Lagoon, and the waterfall Seljalandsfoss are all less than an hour away, and so is downtown Reyjavik. Come and stay a while and explore Iceland's natural beauty and national treasures. Right on the seaside, less than a minute out the door to the seaside path through the town. Fully-furnished and fully-equipped studio, one-, and two-bedroom apartments with own kitchen and all everything you need for a comfortable stay. Each apartment sleeps up to four and has a private entrance, and there are 36 beds dorm rooms with shared facilities.

One night stay!

Solid hostel on the way to Keflavik+Grindavik, with an oceanside location and all the living amenities. Great host, and a stocked kitchen too. In a neighbourhood so you get a small feel of how the locals live!

Golden Circle Apartments

Modern apartments with beautiful lake and mountain views. Apartments located in Laugarvatn on route to Gulfoss and Geysir, 16 km from Thingvellir National Park. Each apartment has a private bathroom with shower, well-equipped kitchen, free Wi-Fi, satellite TV. Along with personal balcony or terrace, free parking and children's playground.

Great location, but in need of some renovation

Reviewed By Fiona I

The apartments are in the perfect location to explore the Golden Circle sights and the town they are in has a couple of nice restaurants to use. However, the apartment we were in was desperately in need of renovation. Some stuff was aesthetic - like cracked tiles or dead flies smushed in the window blinds - which I suppose isn’t too big a deal really. But some stuff was more serious and affected our enjoyment of our stay. The bathroom was particularly bad - the shower head was broken so that you had to hold the shower and shower with one hand. My husband managed to rig it up temporarily with a shower curtain hook but we were so worried it would fall down, it made showering quite stressful! Also the flush on the toilet kept jamming so that the cistern would keep filling up and would have flooded the bathroom if we didn’t manually stop it after each use, which was also stressful. The apartment clearly just hasn’t been renovated for some time. I’ve just seen reviews a few weeks before us which list the same thing, and also I messaged the owner. So clearly they are aware - hopefully this means that they will fix things so that this isn’t an issue for future guests.

Black Beach Suites

Very nice large room

Would give 4.5 if possible. Nice large room the all the main amenities with a good view. My wife felt the bathroom was cold but she spends more time there than me - I didn’t notice ;-) Nice to be able to drive up to the room.

Thoristun Apartments

Thoristun

Reviewed By 387alisav

Last night we stayed at Thoristun in Sellfoss. It is a nice and cozy place to stay and in the cottage we found a little notebook where you can write about your sleepover and your Iceland experience. A really nice idea, but we forgot to bring a pen. Sorry for that, hence this review online! I enjoyed reading all the good tips everyone shared and to read that people from all over the world are positive to stay here; so are we! About the cottage itself; there is everything you need. The kitchen provides the equipment you need to cook any meal you want (including a fridge to keep things fresh). The bathroom has a underfloor heating; so luxurious! The beds are comfortable and you can park your car nearby We recommend this place. It was easy to book and we had a nice stay here. Thank you for having us!

Hellatun Guest House

Great first night on our Ring Road trip

Reviewed By Julie D

This cottage was the best. Host was more than welcoming with details and fruit, wine and skyr in the fridge. Comfortable and inviting, Such a nice location. She also had washer and dryer but we were on day one so did not need it. Hot tub was great, the perfect oasis after a full day of sights and travel from Reyk. Highly recommend this host and location for your ring road overnight or to use as a couple nights stay in the area.

Eyjasol Cottages

A word of caution!

Reviewed By Lorab57

We had booked a #3 cottage months ago only to find out when we arrived that the middle cottage had been split into three small units so #3 was now the size of a walkin closet. Instead of it being a whole cottage as we had booked, it was a tiny space with a hot plate, mini fridge and two twin beds adjoined by two larger apartments on either side. Not even room for our suitcases. No action was taken by the owner even though a larger space was vacant. This was a big disappointment and we cut our stay short. #2,3&4 are a cottage split in three, #1&#5 are cottages. This was the only problem we had with our Iceland accommodations. Too bad, location was nice.

Hver Apartments

Molto consigliato

Reviewed By IlaVal27

Bellissimo alloggio in posizione strategica per visitare Hveragerði e Reykjadalur. Molto comodo il self check-in con cassetta di sicurezza. La casetta è arredata con gusto e la cucina è piccola ma funzionale. Bagno un po' antiquato, con porta che non si chiude perfettamente. Comunque utilizzabile senza problemi.

10. The New Post Office

Vestmannabraut 22 Entrance at the back of the building, Vestmannaeyjar 900 Iceland
