Hvammstangi Hill Homes

The best hotel we stayed in Iceland. Real nice bedding, clean bathroom and nice lobby with bar open until mid-night. After long day travel, this was the best place to relax and rest. Glad we picked this hotel.

Great family vacation stopover spot. Very clean. There’s a small utility room with a clothesline to dry your suit if coming from an outdoor hot spring visit. Know that most rentals in the area have hot spring hot water systems that will smell like well water, not something that can be helped to my knowledge. Just saying to point out it isn’t an issue to be concerned with. There is a pretty full kitchen as pictured and picnic table out front. The grocery store in town closes early and opens late, so get your provisions early if that’s your plan. There’s a great seafood restaurant next door if you miss the timing. The walk into town from the unit along a small waterfall stream and park was really pleasant and makes the area feel much more walkable. If you are planning on seal watching in the area, many of the roads are not paved as of June 2024, so plan on double the time your gps claims. Many of the spots are closed due to tourists scaring the seals away, so do some research first. If pointing out anything to improve, the unit’s bedroom has two twin bed frames that can spread apart some if using as a single bed. Many European flats have two twins as a single queen/full, but often with one big frame to keep them from drifting apart.

Great cottage very convenient and easy to find. The property is clean and have everything you need.

We loved our stay at the Hvammstangi Hill Homes - it was quiet and the house very clean and cozy. We even saw the northern lights from the side of the house last night!

La llegada autónoma está muy bien. La casa olía mucho a comida cuando llegamos y fue algo desagradable.

Lovely apartment with plenty of room and home amenities. The staff was very communicative with directions and contactless registration. Property was clean with beautiful views of the fjord.

We drove here bummed because we haven’t seen the northern lights yet. Late at night we heard rumbling outside and the lights were bright and right at in front of our place. Loved this place and its cleanness. My friends and I said we would stay here again.

We were given a different room on day of arrival, but still there were many flys. We spent over an hour to catch over 40 flys but the owner only responded with an apology without any actions. Next morning there were more flys and we suspect they were hiding in the ceiling. It was a horrible experience like no other places we stayed in Iceland. Cannot imagine how much worse it will become in summer.

Incredibly clean and surprisingly spacious

La ubicación es perfecta para ver Auroras Boreales. Lo negativo fue el mal olor y limpieza insuficiente. Tuvimos que tener la casa abierta y aún así se no se iba el olor a comida muy fuerte.

The apartment is very big and equipped. The water wasn't smell good. There very too much mosquitoes.

Sehr schöne Hütte mit genug Platz für vier Personen. Alles sauber und reibungsloser Check-In per Key-Box. Außerhalb, aber doch zentrale Lage, wodurch man alles schnell mit dem Auto erreichen konnte, aber trotzdem etwas Natur genießen konnte beim Blick aus dem Fenster. Alles da, was man braucht

Great place to stay with an amazing view and cozy sleeping room.

Very basic accommodation. Enough for a comfortable night’s sleep, but furniture was very basic and there was nothing inviting about the place - as if someone assembled a bunch of okra stuff and placed it in the room.

The units had a nice kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedroom. They're in a small town, and away from both the ring road and the main street in town enough that you won't hear any noise.

Despite initial skepticism, renting at this location exceeded my expectations. The space was fantastic, it was very spacious, a full apartment to yourself, no complaints about this.

We loved the location as it is situated in the hills. The cottage is modern and a great place to stay the night after a long day of travelling. The check-in instructions are clearly communicated which makes everything very easy. We would definitely recommend this location.

Great to have the whole space to the family. Could use more blackout and the house was very warm.

A very cozy place to stay. Cute town. The house was very warm (good for cold summers, not so great for a summer night). Wasn’t sure how to turn down the thermostat. WiFi worked great. Everything is explained in the handy-dandy notebook. Bring your own coffee/tea/sugar for the morning. The laundry at the local swimming pool charges 2500ISK for a load (?!?!).

Loved it that the bedroom was separated. The apartment is modern with all amenities.

Modern, nice space. Shower was small, but otherwise very comfortable.

We had to change our plans and the host really helped us to move our stay to another night on short notice. Takk

We have stayed here before and it is a convenient location when driving to or from the north or west. Easy to access and the host gives good instructions. There are 2 induction rings and a microwave. Filter coffee machine but no coffee provided as is normal in Iceland. No oven. Grocery shop nearby. Swimming pool nearby. There are no boat trips to view seals anymore but the Seal Centre can give you a map of places to drive to. Cabin is comfortable, quiet, warm and has good blackout curtains. All was clean. Had two small hand towels provided which was only negative.

Sehr schöne ruhige Lage. Der Komfort war gut und die Landschaft fantastisch. Die Kommunikation verlief auch reibungslos. Es hat ein wenig gedauert, bis ich verstanden habe, wie man die Tür so abschließt, dass man auch den Schlüssel wieder rausziehen kann. Beim zumachen der Tür muss man die Klinke nach oben ziehen, erst dann kann man den Schlüssel so weit nach rechts drehen, dass abgeschlossen und der Schlüssel wieder rausziehbar ist :-). Wir haben den Aufenthalt genossen.

Grosszügiges Apartment mit Wohn- und Essbereich. Separates Schlafzimmer. Sehr sauber und schöne Aussicht. Alles gut geklappt mit dem Check-in. Zu Fuss in ca 5 Minuten beim Supermarket und Restauarant.

Awesome views! This place would be a 10 with the exception of the beds and the check in process. I had never received and email with instructions and had to call Hotels.com to contact property manager to get code for key to get in. The number associated with the property is incorrect! I would think after now reading other reviews that this would be fixed, but I guess not. With not receiving email also did not get wifi password. I had to knock on another persons door and ask them for password. This put us on edge seeing how when we arrived it was in the middle of a snow storm andwe really wanted to get out of our car and into the room. If these issues were corrected I would give this place a 12 on a scale of 10! The town was great and room was not far from essentials.

Good peaceful and the serene surroundings to immerse in . Absolutely gorgeous

Beautiful location, would recommend.

This place was perfect for our mid journey stop en route to northern Iceland. It was so cosy and welcoming, with everything catered to. The owner left us some very useful tips about things to do and see nearby. We had an incredible night here as we got to see the aurora in a cloudless sky for hours!!! The seal watching nearby, the next morning was a bonus.

The units had a nice kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedroom. They're in a small town, and away from both the ring road and the main street in town enough that you won't hear any noise.

spectacular views of sound, easy access around town, wonderfully clean and new.

Buen lugar para ver auroras boreales.

Grocery store was randomly closed the day we were there but otherwise big and beautiful place to stay with an amazing view!

Excellent property felt very comfortable, lovely location very quiet, we saw the northern lights during our stay all we needed to do was go outside.

My only complaint is the place did not have any coffee. We had to go 6 miles for a cup of coffee the next morning. No coffee in the village at all until 9:30
