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.
It was incredible to be in such a remote location yet less than 5 kilometers from the grocery store and restaurants. The Iceland countryside is so open and expansive and this location really gave us a sense of that expansiveness. It was a great location to watch the sunset and sunrise, too. Iceland is a beautiful country. The cabin was so clean and new and decorated so nicely. It was a bonus for me and my friend to have separate rooms, too!
The room was big, clean and good. The included breakfast was excellent. The guest house was also convenient for driving into Hofn The host was very accommodating and gave us a fantastic list of recommendations when we set off the following day. Also gave a great insight into Icelandic culture that people don’t lock their cars or houses. Learning about Iceland from a local is very fantastic. Thank you
We were delayed in getting to the hotel but the reception staff member was extremely welcoming and ready for our arrival. The hotel was clean and the hotel room was comfortable. There are excellent views across the bay from the entrance of the hotel. The hotel facilities are excellent. We stayed at this hotel overnight whilst travelling around Iceland - it was very well suited for this.
One of the best accommodations during our 2 week tour across Iceland. Everything about this cabin was well thought out by the owner. The location has a great view and there are a few benches in choice locations on the property to sit, relax and take it all in. Would love to stay here again in the future!
Stayed here for a night on my trip around Iceland by motorcycle. Höfn is a really nice and clean town on the coast. The guesthouse was clean and comfortable, with good showers. Excellent local restaurants and a great cafe right next door which serves an outstanding breakfast.
Out of the way location, but gorgeous scenery. A stay here includes one of the best breakfasts we had in Iceland. Also included is a visit to the Viking village prop set and around an old army base with huge crashing waves and incredible mountain views!
Great location in Höfn, a nice small hotel with big, clean rooms and a great breakfast included in the price. The self check-in system works great, so you can arrive whenever you want. One of the best hotels I had on my trip to Iceland!
Inga was a wonderful host, we really enjoyed talking with her. She provides a wealth of information pertaining to life in Iceland. Beautiful property, gorgeous scenery, waterfall in the backyard, ocean across the street.
Great place, clean, comfortable, the best out of the few guesthouses we stayed at in Iceland. The cleanliness and the details all over the building make it obvious the owners care for their place and their project.
The room was very spacious and clean and had a big bathroom. I loved the views to the glaciers. Breakfast was good and varied and had Icelandic cheese (only guesthouse which offered proper cheese for breakfast).
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.
We had a very pleasant stay at the guesthouse. Everything was clean and the breakfast had a lot of variety and was plentiful. Would definitely recommend to stay here on your trip around Iceland.
Love everything about the property. Very neat and detailed. The facilities are the best and very thoughtful host. It's our best accommodation in Iceland so far and we mainly stay in hotels.
Very nice rooms. clean and comfy. overall a nice hotel to stay in at Hofn. good location. we walked from there to a near by restaurant. staff was helpful. all good.
