Everything was good. Rooms are very small, but that was expected. Didn't realize they have a number of unattached units that house many of the rooms. The shower is not a stall it is just part of the bathroom, so the floor gets pretty wet. Breakfast was awesome and the hotel has a beautiful view. Nice area to walk around or use the hotel supplied bicycles. I'd stay again.

Hotel is well located for a stop over, about a 15 walk into the harbour area. There is no lift and there are stairs to all rooms! Very bad design for a modern hotel. Shower was awful and soaked the whole bathroom. Would not recommend.

Free parking, though the car park filled up in evening and had to park in unmarked area (checked ok with reception). The hotel has several buildings so don't unload vehicle until checked in. Their website does warn you about no elevators in the main building. The room was fine for a night. Bed comfortable and black out curtains that covered the window!! Bathroom is a little tight with old style shower curtain and bath combination but no problem for us. Breakfast was a reasonable range of items. The staff were very efficient in cleaning and clearing tables whilst ensuring items didn’t run out. Hofn has several places to eat in addition to the hotel restaurant and a couple of fuel stations for topping up.

At 309 USD per night we were anticipating a very nice experience. After all it was the most expensive hotel of the entire trip. So far it has been the worst. Sewer smell in the room, moldy smell in the bathroom. Small room with no closet and barely any space to put the luggage. No coffee maker, no fridge, you get a couple of powder coffee pouches. The looks of the common areas are nice, building from 1965 without elevator. But the looks of the bathroom is that of an abandoned hospital, the shower is bare concrete walls. Room 301 however offers nice views.

Accordingly it was all wett and even when we first entered the room, it smelled humid. The whole room was actually smelling kinda bad. The room was not very clean but it was okay. Linen was ripped. TV was good, with Icelandic and UK channels. Breakfast was not the best, actually our worst so far in Iceland. Coffee was bad, watery. Personal at breakfast was kinda slow and not attentive.

Stayed in a triple, this hotel is spread out in multiple buildings. Ours was nice but a small room for a triple. Fine for one night but we couldn’t open a suitcase and the doors at the same time. Also a lack of plugs, had to use the kettle either right next to the bed or in the water closet

Our stay was really great. It became possible, because of amazing people here. We weren’t aware that there is no public transportation or even taxi around. We don’t drive… Our dream trip was about to end without beginning… But kind big heart Alexandra helped us and drove us to Crystal ice cave meeting point and back! Overall, when our flight was canceled and we were about to cry, Ms Veronica offered to drive us to Reykjavik (which is six-seven hours to drive from here!)… I don’t have a words to fully thank those people! I can’t imagine what could we do without them?! Hotel Hofn is small, clean, beautiful with delicious food in their restaurant. I want everyone knows how good it is! I will write everywhere my story. I hope and wish prosperity and happiness for people who have a heart! Maria Morozova.

Such a lovely and very clean hotel. The staff was very friendly and the restaurant on site was delicious. The hotel is in a quiet neighborhood close to the water and has plenty of gas stations, places to eat and a shopping center with a pharmacy. Plenty of parking and a good breakfast buffet and staff. Hotel has plenty of sitting areas to look out at the ocean or to get out of the room.

We used this property as it was just off the Highway 1 route heading east. The hotel was well maintained and looked very neat. The staff at reception were very friendly and helpful and breakfast was great with nice staff refilling and cleaning tables efficiently. The rooms are compact but with a great shower and the WiFi worked really well. One small criticism is the walls between rooms are super thin so we got to hear the next rooms travel plans in great detail and then the snoring! Otherwise a great place to overnight on route.
