Ármót Guesthouse was a perfect place for our first night in Iceland. There was 3 of us travelling and we each had our own room in the cabin. The cabin had everything we needed with a bonus view of the horse fields. The area was quiet and all instructions for entering the self check in cabin were clear. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

The breakfast provided was plentiful and the staff was kind and helpful. We loved the remoteness and quiet time this gave us. I honestly wish we hadn't been so busy. I would have loved to have more time to relax there.

This place was a gem of a find! Loved it! The room was very spacious and we had one with a private bathroom which was a really nice bathroom. There are several common areas where you can sit and relax as well as areas outside. Loved seeing the horses. They let you go into the stables as well which is amazing. One of the most comfortable sleeps we had on our vacation. We found a restaurant just at 15 minute drive away to Hvolsvollur and ate at Svo which was good. Highly recommend Armot Guesthouse to anyone travelling in Iceland!!

What s great find! To be so close to the Icelandic horses in their amazing barn and pastures was a treat. The room had a WC and views of the range.... breathtaking! Highly recommend!

A fantastic, quiet location not far off the busy tourist route, but a world away from the speed and hassle of the Seljalandsa. We enjoyed a very comfortable bed, a great view and tasty breakfast. It was a real bonus to be able to visit and interact with the horses and their trainers.

Beautiful property on a farm. Our room had a lovely view with some horses just outside that we enjoyed watching in the evening before bed. Breakfast provided in the morning and we explored their horse stalls and said hello to the dogs before we left!

Absolutely loved our stay at Armot! The unit was clean, comfortable and came with necessary essentials upon arrival. The neighborhood was lovely. The Lupins were in full bloom all around the property. Absolutely magical. Loved visiting the horses in the stables. We would def stay here again if we come back to Iceland!

Overall a nice stay but only dirty dishes in the lounge area and the impossibility to find a clean cup to have a well deserved cup of tea will cost a star here considering the price of the night. That should be pretty basic. But the rest was totally fine.

Clean, comfortable, and easy to find
Clean, comfortable, easy to find, beautiful property, and the staff were great. Check in was very easy. Free breakfast was a bonus! The common area upstairs offered a great place to hang out after a long travel day. It is a shared bathroom with two other rooms but that was not a problem. The horses were so great too!

Highly recommend
I highly recommend for a peaceful stopover or for a long stay. The staff was kind and the home was clean and quiet. Sometimes guesthouses are loud or dirty but this one did not feel that way at all. I highly recommend staying here. It’s not right in the mix of things but it’s not far between two bigger towns and nice attractions.
