We stumbled on this place when we booked our trip to Iceland last minute. It was fine accommodations. We would stay in Hofn again, but would prefer to stay in a hotel next time. That being said, this was a great option for us. This is one of the nicest hostels we have stayed in, but it was also very expensive as far as hostels go.

I can only give an average rating for this accommodation. The room was relatively small and the space felt quite tight. It’s suitable for a short stay or as a temporary stopover, but may not be ideal for longer visits.

We had a great time and fully enjoyed the HUGE kitchen assortment of pots and pans and utensils. The bathrooms are shiny new and impeccable conditions. We stayed in a basement room with 6 beds and the air got a bit stuffy by the morning, but we kept the window a bit open to freshen up. We enjoyed the free mini golf on the water nearby, the public pool and the few restaurants in town to try langoustine. We definitely recommend it.

Clean and modern property. Great kitchen setup! Bathrooms are extremely clean (if used first in the morning…can’t speak for other guests). Sometimes the door locks (electric) will make a short buzzing noise, doors from kitchen can be heard at night. (Bring earplugs) Overall great place to stay, highly recommend.

I had a private room with my own washroom. It was lovely and clean. The bathroom was spacious and the shower had plenty of hot water (that was desperately needed after all of the hiking and driving that day). The kitchen had everything needed to make food and the lady at reception was really nice. I would stay here again.
