Review by hotel critic
Eyvindarholt Guesthouse is a true Icelandic gem, offering guests a memorable stay filled with warmth and exceptional hospitality. The picturesque setting overlooking a fjord and Reykjavik creates a serene atmosphere, complemented by beautifully appointed rooms and a common kitchen area flooded with natural light. The owner Áslaug's attention to detail shines through in the delicious breakfast spread, including freshly baked bread and homemade jams. Her helpful tips for exploring Iceland and thoughtful touches, like a voucher for a local geothermally-heated pool, make this guesthouse a standout choice for a cozy and value-packed stay.
