Cheryl, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel was a little pricier than most of the places my husband and I stayed at on our two-week trip, but it was probably our favorite place. The hotel has a fun style, and our dinner and breakfast were really yummy. The staff was super friendly, and our room was nice and big with a great bed and shower.

There wasn't much to do outside of the hotel. Dinner was ok breakfast was good & staff were really nice.

8/10 Very good

A nice cozy option for an overnighter

This is a functional hotel for couples for an overnight stay enroute to East Iceland on route 1. Breakfast was quite adequate and 24x7 freshly brewed coffee, tea and hot water is a great option for tired tourists needing it without using the processed packets that is common in most hotels. Location and view is great. Shower area is constrained as is common in most Iceland hotels and Airbnbs.

We loved our stay here. The room was very spacious and clean. Breakfast was great. We really enjoyed this place.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

Served our needs well. Friendly staff. Only downside was water pressure in the shower was a little low.
THOMAS, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Overall, everything was good. The local breakfast was excellent and really enjoyable. The only downside was the internet access — it was only available in the common area, not in the rooms. If that’s improved, it would be perfect.

Great staff! Cozy rooms.
Katherine, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was a bit outdated. Staff were nice and helpful. It was also great for the facility offering coffee through out the day. Breakfast was very nice as well
Han-Ping, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This quaint guesthouse was delightful. Our room had views of the hills and waterfalls. The restaurant on site was tasty and servers and staff friendly. The hotel is filled with antiques, which makes walking around more interesting. They also have several coffee machines and these drinks are free. Complimentary reakfast buffet included scrambled eggs, hot and cold breakfast meats, homemade jams and cakes, beans in tomato sauce, and fresh homemade bread. There is an interesting whale skeleton in front of the restaurant outside. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

This hotel is a beautiful location with spacious rooms and nice bathrooms! The common areas and the restaurants are filled with cool things to look at! The food for breakfast was tasty and there were many options. We also had dinner and dessert there which was a highlight of our trip!
Jonathan & Vanessa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We were in Iceland for ten days and, by far, this was our favorite place to stay. The staff are the most wonderful people - everyone was so friendly and helpful. We loved our spacious, clean room. The meal we had at the restaurant was our favorite meal of the ten days. DO NOT drive to a restaurant; do yourself a favor and eat at Hotel Smyrlabjorg. When we return to Iceland, we will be looking to stay here again. Don't pass up an opportunity to experience this place.

Stunning Location

Stunning location! Our room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good. Recommend for the views, area, and general location.

Spacious room, good location. Decor needs update.Restaurant food was ok
vidya, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The decor was unique n unusual which was interesting. It seemed like it needed some updating. Staff was friendly and helpful. The food (dinner and breakfast) was great. There was one entrance then had to go down a long hallway to our room, which seemed a little strange. Not sure it was worth the long drive to get there and not much around it.
