Amazing guesthouse, one of the best we had during our 12-day trip around Iceland! We had booked two other locations around Kanslarinn in the subsequent nights, and I wish we had just stayed in that one. Room and beds were great, private bathroom super, and we also enjoyed the breakfast in the morning. So much better than other accommodations!

A very pleasant stay. Check-in done by Ola who was very kind & helpful lending us plug adapters for our stay. Room was large, quiet and a nice bathroom. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of variety for us vegetarians. Restaurant staff were friendly. I would certainly stay here again and will recommend it to our friends who will be visiting soon.

Welllll-the hotel was pretty run down and part was actually under construction. Tough to justify the cost -room hostel-like basic but clean. Staff was so friendly and gave us a repacked breakfast but don’t always believe the ratings-we were stunned
