I like a lot of things, but I love the breakfast the most. The range of food was so vast and everything was absolutely delicious.

Neat, clean, well maintained. Easy check-in. Would’ve been a great place to view the northern lights if not for bad weather. Zero draft and well insulated. The place is neat and clean. Absolutely loved staying here.

Shared kitchen, free parking in front. Easy to get there. Beautiful view in the morning, we were in the yellow House, 2 bathrooms for 4/5 rooms is enough. There are no supermarkets near by but you can find a restaurant 10 minutes by car from the farm. Suggested.

Absolutely amazing stay. Hotel is located next to the ring road and out of any villages, perfect if you are hunting for auroras during the nights. Views are amazing and we even got to see the auroras from bed! Breakfast has little options but delicious and dinner on the hotel was really good too. Staff was amazing throughout our stay. Even though the hotel was fully booked, rooms were super quiet. Overall, not a negative thing to say, it was perfect!

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!

    A really lovely guesthouse, great for an overnight stay. The place was very clean and new. The employee who was taking care of the place was really nice, showed us around and we chatted a bit about where he is from and what he is doing in Iceland. The bathrooms were large and clean, with spacious showers where you comfortably wash and toilet in the same room.

    The house is extremely clean, nicely decorated and furnished with new and beautiful pieces of furniture. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The host are kind, available and extremely helpful. The atmosphere in the house is lively and cozy at the same time. The homemade breakfast is delicious and filling. Many typical Icelandic dishes available.

    A remote location, with sea views and a quirky atmosphere. Quiet, spacious rooms, but felt a little dated and in need of refreshing. Some interesting old memorabilia in the corridors and hall ways, and around the dining area and bar. The breakfast was varied, with plenty of Icelandic goodies to try.

    Great, cozy hotel in a beautiful and serene area. We booked the room with shared bathroom. The room and the bathroom were both neat and clean. Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Great place to stay near Fjallsárlón, Diamond beach and Jökulsárlón (30 minutes away).
