Set in Geysir, 100 metres from Geysir, Hotel Geysir offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar. Featuring an ATM, this property also provides guests with a barbecue. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property. The location right next to the Geysir made this Hotel perfect for a stay during our 3 day stopover in Iceland. However, once on site - the hotel exceeded our expectations! The spacious architecture of the building is very impressive with a very stylish nordic interior design. The room was nice and had a very comfortable bed. Dinner and breakfast were excellent - do not forget to try the Geysir Bread! The staff were outstanding - very friendly and helpful. A big tanks to Georgiana who helped me get back my scarf that I forgot in the room. Wished we could have stayed there longer.

At the guest house, the family-friendly restaurant is open for dinner, lunch and brunch and specialises in pizza cuisine.

For guests with children, Minniborgir Cabins offers an indoor play area and outdoor play equipment. Guests can relax in the garden at the property. The communication from booking and right through our stay was brilliant from Dmitrii and Ögmundur. The cabin itself is gorgeous and the location is perfect. It’s located next to a restaurant but yet still isolated enough to enjoy your own company. The hot tub while surround by snow is surreal. I cannot fault this property one bit. We will be back and have been sharing the property details with our friends and families since we returned home.

Thank you Heima Holiday Homes for a great stay! I would recomment this place to everyone.
