Reviews of Heidi Guesthouse

Big room, common kitchen where you can cook your meal

The upper bathroom was a bit "old". To go to the shower you need to pass the kitchen.

Guesthouse location is good: near the Golden Circle. Price obviously is competitive and reasonable (as opposed to other Icelandic guesthouses and hotels, that are extremely overpriced). Good equipped kitchen and we liked the idea of the traditional decorated house. It almost seems if the owners still live there.

I can confirm previous reviews: 1) We didn't receive the promised check-in information beforehand. Although the host responded rather quickly to or inquiry, it still rises the stress levels and I don't like that during my holiday. 2) The house is in need of some maintenance to make it (a lot) better: paint job for the wood, a good chalk/residu removal in the shower, new taps/equipment for the shower to enhance the experience. Seems to me a small investment for a much better experience.

Very quiet and clean.

The pillow was too soft but fortunately they had two.

Liked the feel of an authentic Icelandic home

Cute little place very near fredheimar and hrunalaug. The house was clean and warm We enjoyed our stay. Thank you for having us

Location is fine

Dirty, broken and smelly shower, only one for 2 floors. The bathroom upstairs was full of dust. Old fry pans, hard to close the window

Location, comfortable beds, low price

Old house , not renovated, inconvenient shower. The single room was tiny. Missing bedsheets in one of the rooms with no solution proposed by the owner until the next day. One of the rooms had many dead bugs on curtains. In one of the rooms the wall was peeling.

Great location

quiet

all was great

It was a great place to stay. It's advertised as Selfoss, but actually it's closer to the turnoff on 35 to go to Geysir. If you're doing the Golden Circle, this would be an ideal place to stay. There was a little waterfalls (Faxifoss) nearby you could walk to along a horse path.

It was a bit hard to find. I wasn't yet used to the Icelandic style of having very subtle signage. In a town nearby I asked for directions and they said there was no guesthouse by that name (when I pronounced it the Swiss way). Fortunately someone realized I meant "Hay-thee", and pointed me in the right direction. There's a little sign along the road saying "Heidi" but it's about 30 km N of Selfoss, despite the address.

We seemed to be lucky to get an amazing huge room with comfy chairs etc. Kitchen facilities were very good. Lovely setting surrounded by garden/farm and location was great for us.

Difficult to regulate water temperature in shower and toilet sometimes didn't flush properly. Twins beds were a bit narrow for adults.

Comfortable beds . Easy to access from the road. Large kitchen.

Towels worn and thin . Some plates stored dirty

We enjoyed our time at Heidi Guesthouse – cozy room, great location, and beautiful views.

The only downside was the shower mixer, which was tricky to adjust to the right temperature.

Greatly located property with fully equipped kitchen, the room was very comfortable

Lovely, cosy guesthouse in great location
