Set a 10-minute drive from Jökulsárlón Glacier, this farm hostel offers rooms with free Wi-Fi and mountain views. Iceland’s Ring Road is right next to the property.

Guest rooms at Skyrhusid HI Hostel have an in-room wash basin. All have access to shared bathroom facilities. Bed linen and towels are included.

The staff is absolutely amazing there and always ready to help! They even helped me out taking out my stucked car of the snow with a tractor! And gave me a lot of tips on how driving in the snow properly. This was the highlight of our stay: the people who work there. Also, the pizza we had at the dinner was so good - I mean, really good stuff. About the room, everything was tidy and clean, the shower is great with the right amount of water pressure and temperature, it has a heater to keep everything warm and the beds are nice.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The location is good for joining tours from “Glacier Adventure” and you will get a discount from the Hostel. Moreover, you might see the Aurora light if you’re lucky enough. Furthermore, the WiFi network was strong. Also, you will meet different people around the world. If you forgot to buy some food before your arrival, 1. the hostel had a shelf in the shared kitchen which sells food; 2. there was a restaurant nearby. At last, feel free to enjoy the welcome cake and drinks.

    Amazing hosts, friendly and helpful. Great location and great fresh coffee machine. Welcome Marriage cake - a delicious treat! Great to chat with other travellers. Quiet, esp considering fully booked. On that note - book as soon as you can. There is little accommodation available and Hotels are expensive for a family. Would happily return here.... Guests were considerate of each other.

    It doesn’t feel like a hostel at all. Lots of things available to use in the kitchen, and free cake daily! I would recommended a bedroom on the first floor. Nice to walk around the property too and so close to Jokulsarlon.
