Self check-in instructions were communicated ahead of time and the process was smooth and convenient. The room was clean, bright and airy. The mini fridge in the room was a nice convenience and the WiFi worked well. The view from our room was fabulous! We had a field of lupine and a small pond that hosted several bird species right outside our window. We could also see snow-capped volcanos and the Seljalandsfoss waterfall in the distance. The breakfast buffet was delicious and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The location is central to Seljalandsfoss (waterfall), Landeyjahofn (ferry dock to Vestmannaeyjar), and the town of Hvolsvollur (food, gas, grocery, shops and the Volcano and Earthquake Lava Center exhibit). Hotel Selja is a hidden gem and I highly recommend staying here!

Very nice hotel. It's in a rural area, so not close to any restaurants (15 minute drive away), but they cook a nice dinner upon request. And great breakfast, too. It's well located to visit many waterfalls, Westman islands and parks.

The hotel stands completely on its own with the hills in the distance along with a waterfall. It was very quiet. The rooms are simple but comfortable. The breakfast was good with waffles being a nice surprise.

Hotel Selja sits alone in a vast, flat landscape with stunning views. You'd not think much of it when driving up to it, but once inside, you're greeted by warm staff members and cozy, bright rooms. The rooms were very clean and nicely appointed. We had a very yummy dinner there served on short notice and received with much gratitude. The breakfast buffet had everything we could want to start our day - it was delicious. It's a perfect overnight location for catching the early morning ferry out to Heimaey Island. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Arrived for my one night stay here, and my key was ready for me at the front desk. Breakfast was delicious (waffles, bacon, eggs, fruits, deli meats/cheese, cereal, etc.). My cat battery actually after I checked out, and the front desk staff lady gave me a jump. Loved my stay here and how homey it felt.

We stayed one night at Hotel Selja during our South Coast adventure and it was great. The fact that it was relatively close to the locations we wanted to visit was the main reason why we chose it, and of course, the free breakfast was also 👌

Great spot in a remote area. The front of the property is very unassuming. The reception was always staffed and check in was quick. Rooms were good. Bathrooms were of an average size, but smaller compared to western hotels. Breakfast was convenient and tasty. Good spot that I would recommend to travelers.
