Best B&B to stay in the golden circle

Very enjoyable stay! I really enjoyed my stay here. Everything was clean, tidy, and well maintained. The location is fantastic, and the views are absolutely beautiful. One of the things I appreciated most was how quiet it was at night, making it a great place to relax and get a good night's sleep.

This was my favourite accommodation during my Golden Circle roadtrip. The upcycled decor and furniture give the place its identity; the views are unbeatable; cleaning is flawless and the room is rather cozy. I thoroughly enjoyed spending a lot of my time there relaxing in the kitchen/lounge. The host kept in touch and delivered timely, detailed emails regarding self check-in. Overall, an amazing experience.

A friendly host and lovely space! Our room was cosy and had a nice view out over the fields, with the mountains in the background. The kitchen/dining area was a nice space to relax in and the bathrooms were clean and comfortable.

Perfect location

Great location for Golden Circle. Loved the communal kitchen / diner area from which we were able to keep an eye out for the Northern Lights.

We were really lucky - the hosts offered us to stay in a separate house for four people instead of the hostel room, and it was absolutely wonderful! The house was very cozy, with a kitchen and everything we needed for cooking. Our group felt completely comfortable and at home there. The location is great - right between Geysir and Gullfoss, and not far from the main road. There’s also a nearby farm with beautiful horses, where you can go for a horseback ride. It was a perfect stop on our Iceland trip. Highly recommended! 🐎✨🌿

Wonderful location, 100% recommended

I would 100% recommend this accommodation to everyone. The location fantastic, very close to the Geysirs. When it gets dark you are in the countryside which open the opportunity to see the Northern Lights. The host makes you feel right at home and the sight of the sunset/sunrise with the horses is mesmerizing. I didn't know what to expect but the only regret is that I didn't stay longer than 1 night as I was travelling towards another place in Iceland.

Iceland is expense so value for money shared accommodation is the way to go. This place fits the bill.

Good location facilities were as advertised

Surprisingly nice, pleasant place to spend a night or two, near the Golden Circle

This was by far the best maintained of our accommodations in Iceland, and the one with the friendliest staff. I don't know whether the young ladies who attended us were employees or family members of the proprietors, but each one was a ray of sunshine who seemed genuinely happy about our presence. The location is very good: you can actually see Strokkur (in the distance) from the windows; Brúarfoss is only a few minutes away by car; Gullfoss and Þingvellir are nearby as well. I liked that the kitchen/dining area had flair (e.g. with old kitchen appliances converted into light fixtures, and items that appeared to have been aged deliberately to give them a well-worn look). The showers had apparently premium grade shower gel, shampoo and even conditioner for the guests, which was a nice touch. The shared kitchen and shared toilets/showers were all clean and in good condition. WiFi was OK.
