The cows outside of the hotel were a wonderful surprise! They had several little nooks to hang out in instead of staying in your room. It was very cozy!

The room was clean and very spacious. The general condition of the complex appeared tired. The dinner was average. I wish I had driven back into town for dinner.

This place offers a nice breakfast buffet, yummy homemade ice cream (try the dandelion!) and a small gift shop. There are cows on site so you know your dairy products are fresh. The rooms are clean, modern (with hooks/outlets/bedside lamps for each bed) on a quiet property. This is a wonderful one night spot for your road trip around the island.

What a beautiful setting at Brunnholl.
I have never had a view of a glacier from my window !
Then you can observe the numerous cows on the property.
Clean rooms and environment.

Can’t beat the glacier view at this place. It’s basically a small hotel on a farm. There are cows and tractors. Breakfast was good and they have dinner, but we went to Hofn for dinner. The room vibe is what I would consider to be Soviet Industrial Chic. Very bland and a really weird lacquered pebble floor. It was clean and the staff was very welcoming. I would stay here again, but the price is a little high for what you get, but limited supply in this area allows for a higher price point.

We arrived at this property when it was misty and rainy. It was such a pleasant surprise to see the 2 nearby glaciers the next day.
It was quiet, peaceful and relaxing which is what we wanted.
All but one staff member we encountered were very nice and helpful. That one staff member had an attitude that her job was beneath her and it showed in how she dealt with the guests.

The heater did not work in our room and they supplied us one. Problem was it was a small one. I didn’t want to leave a bad review but I woke up sick in the middle of the night because the blanket they provide is super thin and no heater made the night terrible. It ruined the whole next day as I had long drives to go to and the entire time I had a sore throat, dizzy head, and a runny nose. The owner was nice though as we were running late for check in and they stayed there for us but getting sick really ruined it all.
