Hotel Stafholt draws praise for its quiet, remote setting near the Ring Road, clean and modern interiors, spacious rooms with countryside views, and welcoming staff, with many guests highlighting excellent breakfasts and opportunities to see the Northern Lights.
Several note the secluded location means few nearby restaurants and limited on-site dinner variety, so planning meals or driving is often necessary. Common areas such as the lounge/bar and outdoor hot tub are appreciated, and the hotel works well as a base for day trips. Expect a peaceful, well-kept base ideal for road-trippers and aurora seekers.

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.

El buffet de desayuno muy completo en un salón muy agradable, cómodo, espacioso y muy bien decorado. El mejor hotel de la zona. Ofrecen servicio de cenas en un ambiente muy acogedor. Ojalá todos los hoteles fueran así.

This hotel is pretty new and it’s really beautiful and inviting. The lobby area is gorgeous and the breakfast room was really nice. The rooms are large, stylish, and have wonderful views to the countryside. This is a great location for Aurora viewing! We had to drive a little ways to get dinner but liked having an outing to explore. The staff are very helpful and we enjoyed the breakfast in the morning. We had some trouble with our door sticking but eventually figured it out. Highly recommend this place!

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

So lovely! The room was very modern and clean. We only stayed for one night, but wished we had stayed for longer. Breakfast was included with the room and included lots of fresh delicious options. We arrived very late and they kindly left the key out so we could get into our room on arrival. We also saw the Northern lights outside on arrival - so magical!

This is a brand new hotel that is very elegantly furnished and decorated. We stayed here for 1 night as we were driving the ring road. The room was quite spacious but we did not really have much of a view from our window. The breakfast was great but we felt that the dinner option was quite limited, especially since there are no other restaurants close by given the hotel's secluded location. My recommendation is to have dinner before arriving at the hotel because the dinner option at the hotel is limited to soup and bread.

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!

El buffet de desayuno muy completo en un salón muy agradable, cómodo, espacioso y muy bien decorado. El mejor hotel de la zona. Ofrecen servicio de cenas en un ambiente muy acogedor. Ojalá todos los hoteles fueran así.
Hotel super limpio y cómodo. Las instalaciones son impresionantes. Decoradas con mucho gusto. La habitación era muy amplia y agradable.

This is a brand new hotel that is very elegantly furnished and decorated. We stayed here for 1 night as we were driving the ring road. The room was quite spacious but we did not really have much of a view from our window. The breakfast was great but we felt that the dinner option was quite limited, especially since there are no other restaurants close by given the hotel's secluded location. My recommendation is to have dinner before arriving at the hotel because the dinner option at the hotel is limited to soup and bread.

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!
