Set in Kjósahreppur, 45 km from Thingvellir National Park, Hvammsvík Nature Resort has a private beach area, parking on-site and rooms with free WiFi access. This beachfront property offers access to a patio. Guests can make use of the sun terrace or the outdoor fireplace, or enjoy views of the mountain and lake. Everything was fantastic. We stayed in the Clubhouse. Stunning views, lovely kitchen to cook a delicious dinner. It was clean and comfortable. The staff was helpful and welcoming. The springs were magical and the restaurant (seafood soup!!) was delicious. Just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, we had the northern lights on New Year’s Eve. Thank you for a wonderful visit. Trip of a lifetime!

Located on Álftanes peninsula, this guest house offers cottage-style rooms with free WiFi , driftwood furniture and a flat-screen TV. Reykjavík city centre is 14 km away.

All rooms at Hlid Fisherman's Village provide tea/coffee amenities and sea views. Each room has a private bathroom with shower. This is a hidden gem. Close to Reykjavik but still feels isolated, has beautiful views of the ocean, and large, clean, and comfortable room. Could’ve stayed there for far longer. Highly recommend.

Eric the Red is a perfectly located Guest House in Reykjavik just 60m/200ft from Hallgrímskirkja Church which is the biggest church and single most central point in Reykjavik, we are in short walking distance from all the best Reykjavik has to offer, whether it’s Museums, Restaurants, Cafés, Bars, Shopping Streets, Parks, the BSi bus station, Geothermal Swimming pools or Lake Tjörnin, and yet positioned in a quiet area of the center. Really great location close to cafes, bars and restaurants. Really easy check in and check out. There was access to a kitchen which was really useful. We were also able to leave our bags once we had checked out.

Very kind and very flexible, she even let us check in very early and changed the date after we had booked the room for an incorrect date.

A good location for a hassle-free getaway in Reykjavík, Ubak Guesthouse is a guest house surrounded by views of the inner courtyard. The property features a garden, shared lounge and parking on-site among other facilities. The property features garden and quiet street views, and is 5.3 km from The Pearl. The guest house has family rooms. Everything was fine, but you have to understand that it is a common place and you will always share it with other people. It is ok if no more than 2 rooms are booked, but if all the rooms are occupied, it will be quite difficult to cook in a small kitchen and use the facilities.
