Very quaint and QUIET seaport town.
Very quaint and QUIET seaport town. A lot of the restaurants and bars were closed during my stay but was able to go to 1 of them which was lovely. It's a very far east part of Iceland I recommend going to, even if it is for 1 night.

Gem! This was worth the extra drive to visit. Honestly it was my favorite part of Iceland. Rugged beauty without the long line of tourist buses to contend with. Stokksnes Beach is a hidden gem at sunrise!

The Berjaya in Höfn is in a wonderful position with the harbour on one side and a view out across the water to the glaciers and the west on the other. It is also easy walking distance to all the local bars and restaurants.

Hofn is a lovely town in SE Iceland.
Hofn is a lovely town in SE Iceland. It has numerous, easy walking paths thru town and around their waterfront including a golf course with views that I think rival those of the finest courses in the world. Not a golfer, but if I were, this is a place I would want to play. It was spectacular. The views of the glacier were outstanding. There were several good restaurants, lobster is a local specialty. There are nature and art trails along the waterfront and a number of good historical exhibits. Wished we could have spent more time here. It felt like a vibrant, fully functioning community that I would have liked to explore more.

it was one of the most expensive stay on our 12 days trips.
it was one of the most expensive stay on our 12 days trips. The room did not match the pricing.
There were not microwave nor toaster nor any other means to warm up any food. Only one working chair in the room.
It was clean, but not worth the price.

Unlike tourist traps in the USA, Hofn is a marine village built to accommodate itself throughout the seasons. It's a place to relax, take in the fresh air, and chill. Its natural beauty is more than enough.
Good location on the outskirts of Hofn assuming you have a car and easy to find along to main road into town. Good private parking in front of the hotel. The room was quite large and spacious and so was the bathroom. Bed and bedding were very comfortable. Breakfast was basic continental but was good and staff were very helpful if items ran out. There is one of the automated coffee machines which are quite common in Iceland.
Absolutely sublime location near a beach and the incredible view of Stokksnes. The accommodation sits upon a farm with beautiful Icelandic horses, friendly dogs, and dramatic views left and right. The booking includes entry into the beach area as well as a good breakfast at the charming Viking Cafe. Make sure to look for wild reindeer while in the area. I only regret that I didn’t stay for more than one night.
If you've never been to Iceland, get used to sharing showers, bathrooms, and kitchen with all the other guests. They're really nice bathrooms and kitchen, but you might not be used to it. But it makes for great interactions with staff and fellow travelers.
If you're an extrovert, this stay is perfect for you. Introverts might have less fun here.
The place is cozy, clean, and in walking distance from everywhere! Fun to see the harbor from our window too! We recommend Viking Cafe for breakfast and Z Bistro had THE BEST LOBSTER EVER! There’s a full kitchen for anyone eating in. These are the best shared bathrooms (and honestly better than our private bathroom at one stay) in all of Iceland!
The guesthouse is located 2 km away from the main road, therefore extremely quiet. We could see the glaciers from the guesthouse. First night we had the lamb chop, it was very authentic Icelandic home-cooked meal.
Breakfast was excellent, they had the best, freshest, crispiest brown bread we have ever had.
I would say best "hostel" ever. We arrived late and after communication with reception via phone, they left card on the reception. Kitchen is huge, ideal for making food for the journey :)
Bed was the most comfortable I had in Iceland, what a sleep!
I will definately stay here if I ever come back.
The guesthouse is situated quite conveniently close to the South Iceland main road. For kids a table soccer offers some distraction. As the next city (Höfn) is still 25 km away, it is nice that the guesthouse offers dinner as well as breakfast.
The room was clean, I was happy to have a private bathroom, very few options for this in Iceland. We did breakfast on our own. Just stayed one night. Nothing really stands out about this property, but I do remember it was clean.
Really spacious modern apartment. Great furniture and huge kitchen. Was one of the nicest places we stayed at in Iceland. And within 5 minutes of restaurants and bars in Hofn. Would definitely recommend Pakkhus for dinner.
My second time staying at the Milk Factory. Still one of my favorite stays on a trip through Iceland. Easy check-in, check-out experience. Family room is great value. Breakfast is plenty. Friendly and helpful staff.
The traditional Iceland buffet breakfast was complete and well tended. The room was clean, new and modern. During breakfast, a sheep and two lambs walked up to the window to say hello and posed for pictures.
The hotel will turn on the heating and air conditioning in advance, which is very satisfactory, and for the Icelandic weather, who doesn't want to feel the warm environment as soon as you enter the house
The house is beautiful and clean. We saw the Northern lights front the front porch and it's so convenient and cool. We would stay at this place again if we come back to Iceland.
Comfortable rooms with big bathroom (rare in the hotels of Icelandic countryside) in a good location. Not very pricey in comparison with most other hotels in the country.
Inga was a terrific host and shared a great deal of information about Iceland and the farm with us. The rooms were great and the breakfast was excellent.
