Höfn: i migliori appartamenti

Ancora una tappa nel nostro tour in Islanda. Dopo una giornata piena di emozioni, arriviamo in questo bell’hotel. Ci assegnano una confortevole stanza, elegante, spaziosa. Una finestra enorme che da sul prato. Penso ideale per contemplare l’aurora boreale . Poi scendiamo a cena e veniamo coccolati con un ottimo pasto. Un po’ troppo mediocre la prima colazione.

The environment is great, and the hotel staff is super helpful and supportive. I really appreciate that they provide laundry service. Highly recommended.

Very disappointing stay in June 2023. We were supposed to stay for two nights but left after only one. Our room was very clean and had a lot of storage space but as we laid down to go to sleep we noticed a large patch of black mold way up in a corner of the ceiling. We tried to switch rooms then but the hotel was full. My daughter and I both have a severe mold allergy and in the morning we were both symptomatic. After breakfast I noticed paint marks on the ceiling where someone had previously tried to cover up the mold. Looking outside we saw a massive hole in the roof right over our room that could let even more water in. The breakfast hostess and manager were both very kind and apologetic. They said they knew about the issue and offered to let us change our room. Knowing that there was such a significant problem with one room made us skeptical about the other rooms and we decided to leave. It also left a bad taste in our mouths that the owner would rather cover up a health hazard instead of fixing it. In short, this hotel needs some repairs. If you can avoid room 116 you’ll probably have an ok stay. Other than the mold we didn’t have an issue with service, cleanliness, breakfast, or noise.

Hotel in posizione stupenda fronte mare. Camera spaziosa e accogliente, solo in bagno un pò di umidità, bollitore per caffè e tea. Le camere fronte mare sono un pò lontane dal ristorante, c'è una passeggiata da fare di 5 minuti all'aperto. Cena e colazione nella media. L'hotel vende anche dei souvenir alla reception. Ci sono le sterne che svolazzano in libertà ma, se capitate come noi in periodo in cui hanno i cuccioli da proteggere, fate attenzione e proteggetevi perchè sono aggressive.

Clean, spacious, well equipt, family friendly and good customer service! 😊 Tough times are a blessing in disguise, it always reveals the true color of the people around us.

We had a good comfortable night stay and hope you do too! 🙂

We’ve stopped off at this guesthouse a number of times when we visit Vestrahorn. Every time we have been impressed with the cleanliness and comfort on offer. You get a lot for a very little price and it’s what keeps us coming back year after year. Breakfast is basic and consists of cereals and yoghurts but it’s included in your room rate. The guest house has a very hostel type vibe to it but that just adds to the pleasure of staying here.

Vista meravigliosa, vicino a tutto (non che si debbano percorrere grosse distanze), pulito e essenziale. Personale cordiale e attento. Colazione buona. Molto carine le terrazzine da cui ammirare la vista sul mare... davvero ben curate.
