Gotuhus - Sea View Apartment, hotel in Hellissandur

Set in Hellissandur in the West Iceland region, Gotuhus - Sea View Apartment features a patio and mountain views. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace and free WiFi.

Amazing location with panoramic views over the sea. One wakes up and falls asleep to the sound of the waves. The apartment is very spacious, the bedroom is a decent size too and the beds very comfortable. Parking on site. The terrace is no longer shared with the neighbours, a wooden wall has been built to divide the terrace so each apartment has their own private part.

It was the best place we stayed in Iceland so far. The whole apartment was super cozy and warm. Sleeping with the sound of the sea is amazing. While we were there there was a blizzard and we were actually happy because by being stuck we could enjoy the place more. Super recommended

    Place and people are nice,

    Place and people are nice, the right position to visit Snaefellsjokull National Park and the west of the peninsula. There are no easily accessible restaurants and shops, you have to provide all your supplies. In the hostel, you have a nice functional kitchen, refrigerator, and a small bar to buy drinking and snacks: light beverages, juices, potato chips, and smarties. To find milk, bread, and food, you have to wait for the day after, at the nearest shop with a minimum 15 km run. Once you organize yourself, life is comfortable, and friend are nice.

    Small, quiet town along the water near the tip of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. It is quite beautiful in the area with sites nearby. The location is great if you are spending two days touring the peninsula. The murals are fun to view but that's about all there is to do in the town itself.

    We were trying to find a hotel close to the Snaefellsjokull Nat'l Park. Now that we have been there, we would opt for staying on Olafsvik (with 2 restaurants for dinner) or go to other side of park at Hellnar or Arnarstapi. Hellissandur didn't have much going on, except Gilbakki Kaffihus is very nice for mid-morning snack, lunch or afternoon break. Very nice people.

    I went to climb Snæfellsjökull, a 30 year ambition. Weather was horid, glad to not be spending the next 300 year as part of a glacier. Lets say it was an exciting day and not for those without experience with Ice weapons.

    What a treat! The house itself is insolite, used to be a bar, a grocery shop and later turned into e guesthouse. Generous and homey spacing and a beautiful flow, you enter from the street to the dining room then to the bedroom and then out on the terrace overviewing the ocean. The monocular on the terrace was a welcomed add on from the hosts, they knew seals are just in front at low tide... The cold beers in the fridge were also a nice touch ;) Loved our stay!

    This was one of the most eclectic hostels I've ever stayed in. Staff were super helpful, and gave a nice tour of the hostel. Had an awesome room for bands, cool room with a ping pong table and nice large gathering room with a small bar (and a chess board). About a 10 min drive to see Saxholl Carer, and 20 min to Hellnar view point, Stone bridge and Londrangar View point. Great location. Cute town next door, Hellissandur, is the street art capital of Iceland.

    We spent 10 days in Iceland - each night in different place but Cliffside Apartmanet completely exceeded our expectations. There are no words to describe what we felt after opening the door: living room and kitchen has a soul and add to this comfortable bed and these views...... sea on one site and mountain on the other.... The gramophone made our day and night. We will come back in the summer!

    The location is just stunning! Could have stayed the whole holiday there. Great view from the privat balcony (family of seals to watch with the provided binoculars you find in the appartement). Super comfortable beds, nice equipped kitchen and all you ever need in the bathroom. If you stay in Hellisandur, go and have yourself a great dinner in the Vidvik restaurant, that makes you stay perfekt.

    Everything about this stay was great! The place had great vibes and was very comfortable to stay at and hangout. The staff was wonderful and were very welcoming! I ended up staying at a quiet time so had a room to my self basically, but felt very comfortable and welcomed throughout the hostel. I would definitely stay again if I came back to the area!

    I loved everything about this place! The kitchen had more utensils than most people have at home, so many choices of board games, and all the books! Made you feel like you want to stay for a month to discover everything on the shelves! Such a great idea for an apartment! Do not miss a chance to get breakfast served by a real viking in RAM Iceland!

    So this was the best accommodation in Iceland for us. Amazing atmosphere, lots of ideas, books, messages on the walls, wonderful. The atmosphere draws you in, calms you down, it's simply wonderful, and that includes the equipment that is just right to fit into this atmosphere. And the viking (beer) in the fridge was the icing on the cake.

    Beautiful, cute and quaint house. Loved staying here. Very responsive hosts. Would highly recommend! Great location to explore the peninsula. Restaurants in town were all closed for the season but we found restaurants 10 mins away and a grocery store so no problem. Loved the murals in this town also.

    Great location overlooking the water in the small town of Hellissandur at the tip of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. We did a two day trip along the peninsula from Reykjavik so this was a perfect location for the night. Enjoyed reading a book in the living room and watching the ocean.

    Comfortable room, excellent breakfast and exceptionally helpful personnel. Special mention to receptionist Anna who made us fish and chips for dinner and gave us many recommendations to explore the Snæfellsnes Penisula. She even helped us to find the northern lights at night!

    I fell in love with this place! The staff gives you a heartwarming welcome and the lobby is a place that makes you feel at home. A cosy place packed with card / board games our children really enjoyed. My only regret is that I did not stay longer at the Freezer.

    The first morning we got a breakfast box for each one and it was not very good. The second morning there were more people in the hotel and breakfast was served and each person choose what to eat, much better.
