Guesthouse Dyngja is located in Höfn and offers barbecue facilities. This property offers access to a patio and free private parking. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. Great location, right by the harbour and beside multiple restaurants. Clean, bed was comfortable and the room was a decent size. There was a sink in the room I stayed in which was nice and they had adapters for North American plugs. Would definitely recommend if you’re in Höfn

Set just 1 km from Hornafjördur Airport. Free WiFi access. The Route 1 Ring Road is right next to the guest house.

A seating area and work desk feature in all guest rooms at Seljavellir Guesthouse. Each room has a private bathroom with shower. Some rooms offer mountain views while others feature glacier views. This place far exceeded our expectations. You enter your room directly from the outside so you never bother neighbours. The exterior wall is mostly glass with beautiful views. The room is very comfortable and the beds had to be the best in the trip, even the floor was comfortable! The bathroom was large and had everything. We didn't miss a thing! And the shared spaces are marvelous too, the dining room is very pleasant and well equipped, you have a kettle, coffee machine, toaster and microwave as well as dishes and cutlery. The woman who prepares breakfast (she arrived as we left) was very helpful and agreeable too. I only wish our stay had been longer!
