10/10 Exceptional

The place was exactly as advertised. It was very clean, with a modern look and plenty of space for at least 4 people (we were only 2) or space to be comfortable for a longer stay. 100% would book again.

Ok people, these cabins are SO spacious. You'll get a good sized fridge, a real coffee maker, a tea kettle, a microwave, plenty of cookware and dishes, and a two hob stove (not induction) that is very easy to operate. Zero complaints from us.

Great accomodation. Great street. Gteat location. Quiet, clean. Walking distance centre.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a good stay here. The cottage is quite spacious inside and has a separate bedroom so it's not just a large studio. The cottage felt newer and was clean and it was nice that it is in a town, so you can go out and grab food if you want it. Check the settings on the heated floors though - they were on automatically even though we didn't need it (summertime) and it can get quite warm in the cottage and you can't open windows due to midges. This place did have the strongest sulfur smell of hot water of all the places we stayed. Nothing anyone can do about that - just know that it is a part of how things are in Iceland. The communication was great - we knew how to check in ahead of time and staff responded quickly when I had a question. I would recommend staying here.

We loved the location as it is situated in the hills. The cottage is modern and a great place to stay the night after a long day of travelling. The check-in instructions are clearly communicated which makes everything very easy. We would definitely recommend this location.

We loved our stay at the Hvammstangi Hill Homes - it was quiet and the house very clean and cozy. We even saw the northern lights from the side of the house last night!
Verified review

6/10 Good

Very basic accommodation. Enough for a comfortable night’s sleep, but furniture was very basic and there was nothing inviting about the place - as if someone assembled a bunch of okra stuff and placed it in the room.

Lovely apartment with plenty of room and home amenities. The staff was very communicative with directions and contactless registration. Property was clean with beautiful views of the fjord.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

This place was perfect for our mid journey stop en route to northern Iceland. It was so cosy and welcoming, with everything catered to. The owner left us some very useful tips about things to do and see nearby. We had an incredible night here as we got to see the aurora in a cloudless sky for hours!!! The seal watching nearby, the next morning was a bonus.

The units had a nice kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedroom. They're in a small town, and away from both the ring road and the main street in town enough that you won't hear any noise.

We drove here bummed because we haven’t seen the northern lights yet. Late at night we heard rumbling outside and the lights were bright and right at in front of our place. Loved this place and its cleanness. My friends and I said we would stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

We have stayed here before and it is a convenient location when driving to or from the north or west. Easy to access and the host gives good instructions. There are 2 induction rings and a microwave. Filter coffee machine but no coffee provided as is normal in Iceland. No oven. Grocery shop nearby. Swimming pool nearby. There are no boat trips to view seals anymore but the Seal Centre can give you a map of places to drive to. Cabin is comfortable, quiet, warm and has good blackout curtains. All was clean. Had two small hand towels provided which was only negative.

Cute Family Vacation Rental Spot- Recommended

Great family vacation stopover spot. Very clean. There’s a small utility room with a clothesline to dry your suit if coming from an outdoor hot spring visit. Know that most rentals in the area have hot spring hot water systems that will smell like well water, not something that can be helped to my knowledge. Just saying to point out it isn’t an issue to be concerned with. There is a pretty full kitchen as pictured and picnic table out front. The grocery store in town closes early and opens late, so get your provisions early if that’s your plan. There’s a great seafood restaurant next door if you miss the timing. The walk into town from the unit along a small waterfall stream and park was really pleasant and makes the area feel much more walkable. If you are planning on seal watching in the area, many of the roads are not paved as of June 2024, so plan on double the time your gps claims. Many of the spots are closed due to tourists scaring the seals away, so do some research first. If pointing out anything to improve, the unit’s bedroom has two twin bed frames that can spread apart some if using as a single bed. Many European flats have two twins as a single queen/full, but often with one big frame to keep them from drifting apart.

The place was beautifully designed and well equipped with everything you need my only complaint was it needed a deep clean I found a toe nail by the coffee table and the walls in kitchen had grease and food and dust
