Great cottage at a camp site

Great location near local amenities, it is also at the local camping site. Reasonably priced, condition may not be the most modern, but ok. There is breakfast served at the camp site restaurant at additional cost, but did not try.

We had a great experience staying at the Gesthus in Selfoss. It was in a great location, with a walkable grocery store and many dining options. The owners are very nice and very helpful as well. The rooms are clean and comfortable, spacious and functional. Highly recommend.

All around, we were unbelievably impressed with this stay. After spending a night in an extremely small hotel in Reykjavik, we were worried about what was to come. This Guesthouse completely changed our trip, and we purposely changed plans to be able to spend more time there. It was clean, very cozy, spacious, and had everything we could need in the kitchenette. Service was exceptional, and all around, the cabin was an excellent stay in all ways. I would highly recommend these guesthouses and campground to anyone staying near Selfoss or the Golden Circle.

The cabin was very clean and has a little kitchen if you need to cook. It also has a nice porch. We could hear the campers outside a little bit but it wasn’t too loud. It was nice to have a private bathroom (which can be hard to find in Iceland!). The staff were very nice as well. Our stay was short but we enjoyed it!
