It offers free WiFi throughout the whole property. I liked everything about this hotel: location, view from the window, atmosphere. I was surpirised, that there was big flat TV in the room, though it was not on booking.com photos and was not mentioned in room ameneties. I liked a lot lime shower gel :)

Views of the surrounding mountains and glaciers, as well as a TV and hairdryer can be enjoyed in all Brunnholl Country Guesthouse rooms. All rooms have a private bathroom. We stayed at Brunnholl Country Guesthouse during our trip to Iceland and were absolutely charmed by this original place! Tucked away in the middle of nowhere along the Ring Road, it’s the perfect spot to unwind, with a cozy and authentic atmosphere. The food was a delightful surprise—delicious, hearty, and made with care, making us feel right at home. The rooms are comfortable, and the glacier views are simply breathtaking. If we could have, we’d have stayed a few more days to soak in more of this hidden gem. Highly recommended!

Arnanes was our favorite accommodation during our trip through South Iceland. A beautiful, super cozy cabin with the most beautiful views we've ever seen. The bed was incredible, and the bathroom was super large and comfortable. The food was delicious, and the staff was very friendly. We can't wait to return.
