A very good place to stay in Höfn. Close to the harbor, so you could have a good view of the sea. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the kitchen is very well equipped.

Property while slightly outdated with shared bathrooms was clean and comfortable with a great restaurant next door. It was difficult finding our room at first that could definitely be improved.

It was fine. It was convenient to restaurants in town. They were doing construction on it but that was ok. The bedroom and bathroom was clean. Shower was fine. Room was a bit small for two twin beds--they could not really be separated so it was like sleeping in the same bed. They were supposed to contact me the day before with check in instructions, but I didnt get any info and was a bit worried till I reached someone by phone. Once there, the check in was fine.

Property was quaint, great location and view of marina, room worked perfectly for 5. Took a little to find the upstairs room but staff were very helpful and had it accessible for us as we called ahead due to travel & arriving late at night. Thank you!!

Had a great stay in the guesthouse. I was on main floor and found it was very quiet even though most of the rooms were occupied. Called ahead to get my room number and the key was in the door when I arrived which was great! There is a shared bathroom but I never had to wait to use it, and it was very clean. The shared kitchen had everything needed to make dinner, they even supplied basics like tea/coffee/spices etc. and plenty of seating. The room was quite large and very comfortable. Would stay here again!

This was a self check-in, where there was a post-it with our name and room number. Everything was clean and nice, my only nit-pick is on the kitchen, they only had 2 stove rings, and they were 4 different groups in the tiny kitchen, so we had to wait a while to start cooking.

Insufficient bathroom and kitchen capacity

Not what we expected. Too many people sharing bathroom, toilet and kitchen. Kitchen only had 2 cooking rings for 10 rooms. Only one toilet and bathroom for 4 rooms on ground floor. Upstairs rooms had to come out of building to get to ground floor to use kitchen. Room smelt of stale fish due to proximity of harbour...not hotels fault to be fair. Tap in room sink dripped all the time. Poor sound insulation. However easy to find, warm and comfy bed. Hotel in much worse vondition than photos on website show. Kind and helpful staff though think they are not based on site. Parking outside was plentiful.

We had an issue with adding a payment to a reservation and we were met after hours at the door by the property owner. After finding out that we may not be incredibly comfortable with a shared bathroom, she offered an upstairs private apartment that slept our whole party. Great customer service and very kind lady. We were thankful for her generosity and flexibility!
