This family-run guest house, off the Ring Road in southeast Iceland, is 7 km from Höfn. Free WiFi is available.

Haukaberg House's offers a bright accommodation featuring blackout curtains and private entrance. The house has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, all with a shower and hairdryer. Good location, very close to Hofn. The apartment was very clean and very well equipped. If you are not too tired and have a few minutes to spare, I recommend you read "The Story of the House" (it had no title, so the name is not real). The owner was more than dedicated when she shared details about both the history of the house and the family, but also small details about Icelandic life. Haukaberg House is one of the places where we would return with the greatest pleasure.

Vikingcafe offers rooms in Höfn. This beachfront property offers access to free WiFi and free private parking. The guest house features family rooms.

Each unit comes with a kettle and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower and a hair dryer, while certain rooms will provide you with a fully equipped kitchen equipped with an oven. At the guest house, every unit has bed linen and towels. It was a wonderful stay… beautiful location and newly renovated. We liked it mostly because it was remote and Vestrahorn Mountain is just breathtaking. Great spot to see the Northern lights and endless photo opportunities!! The staff was wonderful and friendly and helpful.

Our room have an attached courtyard to sit out in which would have been super cute if the weather and time had allowed. Showers were a great size and clean. Heated towel rack, radiators and hair dryer. Small mini fridge was handy. Restaurant food was ok and the buffet breakfast was plentiful. Best complimentary buffet we came across. Staff were friendly and accommodating and communication was excellent. I had messaged through booking site to reserve for dinner and the response was within minutes! Beds were comfortable and we had a great quiet sleep.
