If I ever visit Iceland again, I would really like to come back here.
Pros:

A unique place, probably the best place we stayed in Iceland. The house is a museum, full of the history of Iceland and the host's family. We were so lucky to find such a place.

Pros:

Posizione fantastica in mezzo alla natura. Quiete assoluta. La padrona è adorabile e mi ha fatto sentire come a casa. Posizione comodissima per Hengifoss, Strutsfoss, Laugarfell e Snaefell. Tornerò!

Cons:

Non comodissimo fare la spesa ma è il prezzo da pagare per una posizione così unica nel wilderness

Pros:

We really enjoyed our stay at Holl, which is located in a remote but beautiful landscape! Also the host was very friendly and helpful and as he‘s Icelandic he could tell us many interesting things about this beautiful country and how they live there.

Pros:

Прекрасний гестхаус з чудовим господарем. Тихо, затишно. Смачна кава та дуже атмосферно все. Сподобалось.

Cons:

Можливо, комусь може не сподобатись те, що двері до кімнат не закриваються на ключ.

Tolles Guesthouse mitten in Island
Pros:

Tolle Lage für Wanderausflüge ins Hochland und auch zum Hengifoss. Große Küche, gutes Bett, sehr ruhig und sauber. Abseits der Touristenströme und ein wirklich traditionell isländisches Guesthouse. Netter Kontakt zum Gastgeber, der sehr hilfsbereit war. Unschlagbares Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

Cons:

Fantastische Ausblicke und Ruhe
Pros:

Einfach alles! Wer die Einsamkeit sucht, ist hier genau richtig! Gulmur ist ein toller Gastgeber. Wir hatten das gesamte Haus zur freien Verfügung. Auch, wenn uns das Wetter einen Strich durch die Rechnung gemacht hat und es meiner Tochter leider nicht so gut ging, haben wir die Stunden hier umso mehr genossen. Wenn wir jemals wieder nach Iceland 🇮🇸 kommen, machen wir hier sehr gerne wieder Halt!
