Great breakfast. Helpful staff. Beautiful location but not near town. Drive to Dragon Rock and around the Peninsula was one of the highlights of our trip. It is a gravel road but amazing views and worth it if you want a ”road less travelled”.

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.

Liked the contact less check in. Did not realize that I booked a shared bathroom, as this was not made clear in the listing. You need to select the 'More details' tab to see that it is a shared bathroom accommodation. Full kitchen is in the lower half of the guest house, so if staying upstairs, you need to go outside to get to the full kitchen.
