Douglas
The rooms at Guesthouse Birkifell are cozy and inviting, with a seating area and a flat-screen TV. It feels like a perfect spot to relax after a day of exploring. As someone who loves karaoke and casinos, I truly enjoyed the comfortable vibes of the room.
Personally, I found that the availability of the three-bedroom house only during summer months was a bit disappointing. However, I understand that others might still find enjoyment in this arrangement.

We loved the welcoming host, cozy cottage, and well-equipped kitchen with a welcome booklet. The stunning scenery and tranquil location were a perfect escape. We were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights and spot reindeer, adding to the enchantment of our stay.
Nothing I didn't like to be fair.

We really got our money's worth at this guesthouse. The room was cozy and well-equipped, perfect for a family of four. The location was fantastic, close to the glacier lagoon and Hofn, and the staff treated us like valued guests.
Hotel breakfast could have been better with more variety and options.

The remote location of this cozy cottage was perfect for a peaceful Christmas getaway. The nearby hot tubs were a nice addition for some relaxation, although they could have been warmer. The cabin itself was very cozy and well-equipped, with a fantastic kitchen and barbecue area. Plus, the presence of the friendly dogs added a touch of warmth to the experience.
The building itself was not well-insulated, which made for a very noisy and uncomfortable night during the storm. The strong winds and snow seeping through the walls made it impossible to get a good night's sleep.

The location of the guesthouse was fantastic, with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and close proximity to the glacier. the host was extremely friendly and helpful, providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere. the cabin itself was spacious and clean, with a comfortable bed and well-equipped kitchen. I also enjoyed the deck terrace, which provided a great spot to relax and soak in the sun.
The hot tub could have been larger to accommodate multiple guests comfortably.

We had a fantastic stay at this cozy guesthouse nestled in the midst of nature. The location was perfect, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and even a glacier. The owner was incredibly welcoming and funny, making our check-in and check-out experiences memorable. The house itself was clean and quiet, just like in the photos. We especially loved the well-equipped kitchen and bathroom. Despite the small size of one of the bedrooms, it didn't pose a problem for us. And although the hot tub was a bit small for four medium-sized males, it wasn't a dealbreaker. our time at Birkifell felt like a home away from home surrounded by the beauty of nature.

This cozy cottage near route 1 offers stunning landscapes, close proximity to a town with shopping and thermal baths, and nearby thermal pools and a glacier. The fully-equipped kitchen and comfortable bedrooms make it perfect for families. The friendly hosts provide privacy and the chance to interact with their lovable Icelandic shepherd dogs. Seeing the northern lights from the cottage's field is a bonus. Would stay again.

The rooms at Guesthouse Birkifell are cozy and comfortable, with a seating area perfect for relaxing and a flat-screen TV for entertainment. The private bathrooms are equipped with a convenient hairdryer, making it easy to freshen up after a day at the beach. As someone who loves being close to the ocean, this guesthouse is the ideal choice for me.
The only downside for me was that the three-bedroom house is only available during the summer months. But hey, that's just my personal opinion and I'm sure others would still enjoy their stay regardless.

The cottage was cozy and warm, with a great location and position. The hot tub was enjoyable, although it could have been bigger and had a shelter. The hosts were amazing and had friendly dogs. The cabin had great heating and hot water, and the beds were very comfy. It was a perfect location for exploring Iceland, with beautiful views and close proximity to a glacier. The hosts made the payment process easy with an early morning departure.
Felt very lucky, no complaints whatsoever.
