Hellisholar Cottages

We stayed for 2 nights, cottages are really nice, comfy and warm. We also enjoyed the pools one night, even if are a little bit far with snow all over around. The restaurant was nice too. It also is a perfect place to enjoy Nothern Lights!!

Nice cottage, looks worse from outside than inside. Inside was clean, with three beds, small bathroom with toilet and shower. Enough hot water, but if the water finishes, you can use the public bathroom from the camp. Cattle and some cups for tea are available. There is an option to park your car in front of the cottage, but there is not much else to do around if raining. tip: They serve dinner (not included in the price) in the main building, which was quite reasonably priced (3000/4000 ISK), so no need to drive to the town for the dinner.

We had the 4 bed cottage for 3 people. Plenty of room, nicely equipped kitchen, comfortable beds. Cottages have space between them which is nice. No city lights, nice place to see northern lights. The restaraunt has a good burger, Lil pricey but at least tastey and juicy. Staff is pleasant and helpful. Overall a very nice stay!

We stayed at a cottage for 4 nights. The location is great and the staff was very helpful! The Cottage was clean and comfortable but it does need a little more kitchen amenities and a small closet. There was enough hot water for the three of us to shower but the water pressure was really low. It’s a great place to see the northern lights! We’ve been there at August and we were able to see them.

A small cottage but enough for 2 persons. Had a fridge, stove, plates, glasses, knives etc so we were able to cook something easy. The cottage was not close to any other cottage so it felt private. Big area for my boyfriend to go out for an early morning run. Overall a good place but nothing special. The cottage had beds for 4 persons but I think it would be too small for that. You have to clean before leaving.

We were two couples staying in one cottage which had one bank bed and one single bed in the bedroom and one single bed in the kitchen. Both rooms were tiny and there was no door separating the bedroom and the kitchen. Also the entrance door had a window but no curtain - as we were traveling in summer this meant nice and bright night. This place is in the middle of nowhere and only offers buffet dinner (which didn’t look appetising at all) so make sure you eat elsewhere (there are some nice places in Hvolsvollur (but they all close quite early) or bring your own food. Unless you are on tight budget I would recommend to stay elsewhere.

Beautiful place with a nice view over the mountains. Sleeping rooms were clean, had new furniture and moderate rate of room. Breakfast was average. They wanted to serve English style, but were missing bacon, potatos and orange juice. Mashed eggs were tasteless and juice was half water. Rooms: 5/5 Breakfast: 3/5 Staff: 5/5 View: 4/5

In The middle of...golf place Nobody around just wind and friends Enjoy The peace Rooms big. Beds small. Burger perfect. Fish fresh Breakfast ..typical and goes Recommend for travelling with car in A group

Rooms were very small, only two bed in the room, no space for luggage's.In the room We have stayed in 6pax - 2 room cottage and 2 beds are in living area. So there was no place to sit. There were some dust but OK for me. It could be better if there is a dishwasher and more quality in furniture's. Good location to see Northern Lights.
