There is no shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the bathroom, which is so common nowadays, and no kettle. Ask the reception-in duty if I can borrow a kettle to use it in our room and he asked me to go into basement kitchen to do it yourself. The wifi supposed to be included, the connection is the worst that I can think of. Even I tried to use my own data, there is slow connection to none. Not worth the money spent, would never recommend this guesthouse to anyone.

Can’t beat the glacier view at this place. It’s basically a small hotel on a farm. There are cows and tractors. Breakfast was good and they have dinner, but we went to Hofn for dinner. The room vibe is what I would consider to be Soviet Industrial Chic. Very bland and a really weird lacquered pebble floor. It was clean and the staff was very welcoming. I would stay here again, but the price is a little high for what you get, but limited supply in this area allows for a higher price point.

The cows outside of the hotel were a wonderful surprise! They had several little nooks to hang out in instead of staying in your room. It was very cozy!

This place offers a nice breakfast buffet, yummy homemade ice cream (try the dandelion!) and a small gift shop. There are cows on site so you know your dairy products are fresh. The rooms are clean, modern (with hooks/outlets/bedside lamps for each bed) on a quiet property. This is a wonderful one night spot for your road trip around the island.

Family friendly rooms and lovely service

It’s difficult to find a room in Iceland that allows more than 2 people. We were traveling with our 6 year old, and I was happy to find Brunnholl Guest House. The family rooms were modern and spacious, and I appreciated that each bed had an outlet by it for charging. The view of the glacier from our room was incredible. The breakfast spread was excellent. They make their own ice cream on site, and it was tasty.

Everything was great except you can’t open the windows more than an inch. If you are facing north and it’s sunny the room will heat up and it’s impossible to cool it down. Other than that, super comfortable. Big, spacious room and the food for dinner was delicious. The ice cream is great. Don’t bother ordering an espresso drink in the morning. The regular coffee was good.

The property is good, however the front desk lady is super annoying. We asked her something twice as we could not understand her accent initially and she got frustrated. The hotel mentions shared cooking area but it is a lie as there is no stove, just kettle fridge and microwave. We checked in late and had taken some food to cook, when we asked her where we can cook, she was super arrogant in replying that there is no kitchen and you need to figure out. I know I need to figure out but why lie on your listing that there is kitchen to cook. Overall experience was poor because of the front desk lady.

We arrived at this property when it was misty and rainy. It was such a pleasant surprise to see the 2 nearby glaciers the next day. It was quiet, peaceful and relaxing which is what we wanted. All but one staff member we encountered were very nice and helpful. That one staff member had an attitude that her job was beneath her and it showed in how she dealt with the guests.
