Stayed in the Aurora cabin and it was incredible. Private and cozy. Gorgeous Auroras and falling stars. Bathroom was beautiful. Floors heated throughout. The main Inn was beautiful too. Nice ambiance. Nice bar area with nice sitting area. We did not eat at the resturant, but wished we would of because it looked lovely and the dinner look good ( private Christmas party). Service was excellent. Very clean. Breakfast included was adequate. Wished we would of booked extra night. I highly recommend. Best place we stayed in Iceland.
Beautiful shower in bathroom with heated floors
So many light options to chose from.  Beautiful inside.
Auroras and many falling stars throughout the night. Lucky to have clear skies.  So many stars.

Nice property out of the way. If not for cloud cover would have been perfect for the Northern Lights.

We loved our stay and your hotel. My only suggestion is to consider preserving an area for viewing the Aurora and the night sky. the area back by the hot tub would work well if the lights were changed to minimize the light interference.

Wildly expensive, but clean and a good breakfast.

This hotel is in the middle of nowhere. It suited us, as it was a 30 minute drive from Into The Glacier, but there isn't much else to do nearby, no town or restaurants. The hotel is new and very clean. The man and woman who work there are pleasant. The breakfast was wonderful. They had GF bread specially for me, as I asked ahead of time. There is a 6-person hot tub on the premises. However, the cost is exorbitant for what it is, and we paid double what any other hotel would charge. Also, all rooms are twin rooms, and they didn't have any double beds, which was weird.

Old building with steep narrow stairs, thin walls letting in all noises from neighbors room and hallway, tiny shower, small outdoor spa with no privacy or charm, extremely expensive restaurant. Way too expense for value offered

Loved the view from the hotel. Our room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We arrived early so jumped in the hot tub before dinner. Service and breakfast were very good too.

Hotel Stafholt is a great spot for day trips west of Reykjavik. It's a lovely hotel in a fairly remote setting, with Borgarnes possibly being the closest town. There is so much to see and do right around the hotel, but eating options seem limited, so fill up on the hotel's nice breakfast spread before heading out! The rooms are spacious and nicely appointed with pleasant views. The bathrooms are large with nice amenities. Everything was in new condition, well-kept, clean, and comfortable. Staff members were all lovely and fun to chat with. We would certainly stay here again!

We stayed at Hotel Stafholt just for one night and really enjoyed it. The location is close to the Ring Road but in a quiet a bit remote area which we liked. The hotel itself is very new and sparkly clean. The bed and linen are beautiful, the bathroom is high quality and I loved a smell of handwash :) Friendly staff, especially Irena. We would definitely stay there again
