Hotel Edda Egilsstadir

Repurposed dorm-style property with basic amenities and large common areas; some rooms lack TVs, have few outlets, and no fridge. Parking is available (sometimes down the street), lifts miss some half floors, the entrance may be locked overnight, and there is no on-site pool.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed: several guests found rooms and public areas very clean, while others reported dust, unwashed linens, and unpleasant bathroom or water odors.

Rooms are basic, dorm-style, and often dated, with some lacking TVs, very few outlets, and small bathrooms; a few duplex rooms use narrow spiral stairs. Several guests found the spaces surprisingly large and beds comfortable, though pillows and thin curtains drew complaints.

Staff are frequently described as friendly and helpful, with easy check-in noted. However, some reported a damage deposit not advertised, the lobby locked overnight with limited support, and a room not ready at check-in.

Scenic setting with lake views and pleasant walks; generally convenient for town, supermarkets, and even the nearby airport. Some note it is a little peripheral.

Breakfast is often praised and sometimes described as very good, though a few found it basic or expensive and there was occasional confusion about inclusion. Opinions on other meals vary from a fantastic late kitchen service to very poor food.
