3-Star Hotels in Hofn

The location of this hotel is very good, several small buildings have a sense of design, especially surrounded by a large wilderness, surrounded by mountains on one side, facing glaciers and valleys in the distance. There is no elevator, the highest should be two floors. It is very close to Hofen (Hepburn), and seafood can be eaten in the town.

250€ a night and the rooms are completely HORRIBLE, small, depressing, smells, awful shower, just the worst one in Iceland. The food at the restaurant is overpriced and gross. The bed was uncomfortable and the room was so dark and dingy. Staff at breakfast is hostile by the way, be careful.. Hotel Geysir charges 70€ more than this place and you get to experience luxury and premium accomodation. While Hotel Höfn would not even rank as a roadside MOTEL in my experience. Charging almost the same price of a premium hotel when really this place should be no more than 150€ a night. These people need to get down to earth, their hotel ain't all that. Stay somewhere else if you can...

The hotel is very close to the glacier lake and diamond beach, and it takes about ten minutes to drive. The hotel is very quiet at night in a small town. The room is very large, about 40 square meters, bath water or geothermal water. In addition to the accommodation room, the hotel also has a separate drying room for drying clothes (the taste inside is conceivable) for drying the soaked objects of the passengers. There are also coffee and tea in the public tea break area for guests to enjoy. Breakfast is also a more plentiful and very good hotel. Attached is a photograph of the breakfast restaurant hanging, but unfortunately I did not take such a beautiful scenery throughout the process.

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.

Great location with sea/mountain views on one side and harbour views on the other. Rooms appear recently refurbished. Lots of parking and within walking distance of Hofn restaurants (we went to Pizzeria). Bar area in reception with outside patio terrace seating. Great breakfast with hot and cold buffet. No lift to first floor but luggage assistance offered.

The location is very close to the town of Hofn. The service of the big sister who stayed in the counter office is super friendly and kind. Although it is a homestay, it is dedicated and professional. The rooms are well-equipped. The price is not expensive and the cp value is high. When the weather is good, there is a chance to meet Aurora. This time I was lucky enough to meet during the stay, it was great, the breakfast was also good, and I was very satisfied overall.

This place was fantastic. The owners clearly take pride in the property, down to the little details. The cabins seemed new and were very clean (everything looks like the pictures). The main/reception house is lovely and full of art made or procured by the owner (photos, crafts, etc.). The included breakfast was amazing - local smoked salmon, icelandic yogurt, breads, meats, etc. (and even a shot of cod liver oil if you want one!). The cabins are 20 minutes outside Hofn in a gorgeous location. I have nothing negative to say about this place.

The service staff is a man and a woman, and they are very eye-catching, which makes me very useful for this kind of face control. The service attitude is also warmer than the average front desk, and the goodwill suddenly doubles. The breakfast is good, there are many breeds, and the cute little shepherd dog is very smart and very well-behaved. The room facilities are very complete, the room decoration is also very new, free parking, I highly recommend this.

The Old Airline Guesthouse is an extremely nice guesthouse at a great value. It is situated strategically between two of Iceland most majestic sites, the Vatnajökull Glacier/Iceberg Lagoon and Hvalnes Nature Reserve. The Old Airline Guesthouse owner and host Sigga was absolutely wonderful. My wife and I had a small but awesome room with a view overlooking the Hofn bay area. Patrons can also enjoy a similar view in the upstairs common area. Local shops and restaurants are within walking distance. A continental breakfast is included in your stay. Being a guesthouse you do share a bathroom, other than that the Old Airline Guesthouse is truly a gem worth staying.

1.) This is NOT a 3 star hotel. The accommodations are very meager. 2.) The staff did NOT warn us about the Sandflies in the area upon check in. By midnight, our room was infested with these bugs that bite and itch. We had to leave in the middle of the night to make our return to Reykjavik to escape this situation. 3.) There was a bunch of horse dung outside our window as well that was disgusting and likely exasperated the sand fly problem. I emailed the owners and never heard a response.
