Great place to stay!
We had an excellent stay at Lonkot! I would highly recommend this if you are in the area. Unfortunately, we had to leave early in the morning before breakfast, but the kind young woman who checked us in brought us some pastries and other breakfast items to enjoy on our next-day early-morning drive. The room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable.

Beautiful property right on the beach
Wonderful room and property. The small house is beautiful and they have a great jacuzzi. The property is on the beach.

Very peaceful stay. Romantic surroundings. Nice soak in a hot tub. Restaurant is pricey (!) as is the norm for food in Iceland. I would consider staying again and highly recommend for those traveling the Ring Road.

Absolutely the best thing that could have happened on our last night in Iceland. Beautiful location, great rooms an WC's. The food was wonderful, especially the Dijon Cod. Katarina went above and beyond to make our stay great, oh yes did I mention the soaking tub, and the observation platform.

Heaven on Earth
A beautiful country hotel in a remote and stunning location. The manger and staff are exceedingly welcoming, and the restaurant is sublime. The hotel's hotpot is an added bonus. A very special place!

This was the most unique and beautifull night of our 6 in Iceland. The hotel is an old farmhouse that has been renovated on the inside, to comfortable guestrooms. If you choose to eat dinner there, it was fantastic and worth the steep price tag. The views from there are also priceless. Only disappointment was their hot tub was being repaired, but should be available soon. Wish we could have stayed longer!

OK place to stay in the country.
We stayed two days and were surprised when the room was not serviced between days. Also, for a place that claims a great restaurant, the breakfast was mediocre with warmed dinner rolls and a boiled egg. Definitely overpriced.

lovely and so peaceful!
We were here at the beginning of the summer season and were actually the only ones staying at the resort. It was beautiful and I cannot say enough about how peaceful it was. Everything was great. The most comfortable room of our trip. Really lovely breakfast. Just great. I want to go back!!

Paradise
This wonderful little resort was so peaceful and quaint. Shared WC and showers, rooms were small but comfy. Lovely hot tub in an adjoining building. It sits next to the Greenland Sea on the north side of the island. They have a little tower you can climb to get an amazing view. The staff was very friendly. It's located just a few kilometers from Hofsos, a lovely little town that was fun to walk about. Our room was quite affordable.

Shower doesn't drain, light bulbs are burnt, the water tap broke. Nice place in a peaceful and serene location but not that well maintained.

hotel in the middle of nowhere...
While the first impression may give you second thought, the stay was a hidden gem during our trip around Iceland. The staff was super and rooms very clean. Just wonderful...

Un lieu apaisant !!
Un cadre général très apaisant en communion avec la nature! La vue est magnifique. L'hébergement est très correct, propre, spacieux avec une recherche de décoration plutôt réussie. Personnel très aimable, discret. Dommage qu’il n’y ait pas assez d’ouvertures sur ce formidable extérieur. Attention à l’isolation qui est quasi inexistante et aux prix des menus du restaurant qui sont plutôt élevés même dans la moyenne islandaise.

Situato in una posizione splendida, ma le camere sono lasciate andare, i bagni sono vecchi, con rubinetterie completamente scrostata, la doccia ancora con la tendina. il ristorante niente di particolare, colazione buona, rapporto qualità prezzo molto basso, eppure ci vorrebbe poco.

Idyllisches isländisches familiengeführtes Hotel
Das familien geführte Hotel liegt in einer sehr idyllischen Landschaft. Hier arbeiten tatsächlich Isländer - und zwar eine sehr herzliche Familie. Das Restaurant bietet genau drei Vorspeisen und drei Hauptgerichte (2x Fisch 1x Lamm) aber die sind frisch zubereitet und sehr lecker. Die Zimmer sind klein aber fein und der Hot Tub angenehm nach einem frischen Tag am Meer. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen. Wer aus Richtung Süden kommt: Das Hotel liegt ungefähr 10 Minuten im Norden von Hofsos entfernt.
