Perfect place as a mid-point in a long drive. Virtually ZERO to do, including only a gas station grocery only. But as a "motel 6" type option, it was better than average.

The two guys that run this place have apparently taken it on in the last couple of years and are very enthusiastic, friendly and helpful.
There is a pool table in the main “hall” area.
And the breakfast was delicious (there’s a waffle maker!)
Dinner can also be provided but you need to give 48hrs notice

Owners have done the "extra" mile here. It was the most welcooming experience in a hotel/room i ever had. They had thought of every need you may have. You can find anything you want in the house with instructions, from how to make your waffles (they offer you all the ingredients there with homemade jam) to musical instruments, to turn on the hot pool so that you find it ready when you go. Highly recommened. And the best location for northern lights, we just went out of the house and we saw the magical show of northern lights above us.

The house is beautiful located at the edge of the fjord, There is another house just next to it. There is enough privacy for both houses. The interior is made with love. I loved the spacious bathroom. The bed was very comfy.
When the sun shines it can get very hot inside, but we could open all kind of windows, so it was no problem, i liked the sustainability of using the sunheat.

I had a lovely stay here. Very comfy bed, beautiful views, nice kitchen and bathroom and very, very quiet. A real Icelandic experience which I am so happy to have experienced. The host was very welcoming and friendly and told me a lot about sheep farming in Iceland. Just be prepared for a fairly long gravel road. It is in the middle of nowhere.

A very lovely and warm home that made our stay in Iceland an absolute delight and comfort. Our hosts were welcoming and the place was pretty, clean and spacious. The sea view was therapeutic. We loved the place!

What a place! We were greeted by Oskar and his dog and given the grand tour which far exceeded our expectations. Oskar had clearly poured his heart and soul into the place and it showed. It had a very homely feel. The bedroom was comfortable with proper blinds that kept the light out. The bathroom was immaculate and well finished, there was even a lounge room upstairs for guests to chill in. The kitchen was well equipped and well labelled. Oskar gave us great tips on nearby attractions which we would otherwise have missed. He was easily the best host on our 15 day tour of Iceland!
The greatest highlight of this guesthouse was obviously the arctic foxes that came out to play in the evening. We spent hours in the field photographing them, they came right up to us.
This hotel was easy to find off the main Route 1. Accommodation was on the basic side, however it was clean and tidy. 24/7 tea & coffee available from the dining area. Staff were friendly and assisted where necessary. Reasonable buffet breakfast. It is more on the expensive side compared to other hotels we had stayed in but due to its location, it appears to be reasonably priced. There is plenty of off road parking. The village itself is quite compact but there is a lack of local restaurants. We can recommend the Sjavarborg Restaurant, on the quayside for evening meal.

We only stayed a night, arriving in a blizzard. It was absolutely stunning, the hot tub and sauna in the snow were simply breath-taking. We didn't even get a chance to check out Hvammstangi, unfortunately, but next time I will definitely stay here again!

We loved everything: the cottage, the view, the nice short talk with the owner, the aurora on our second evening!
The main restaurant at the village near the cottage is pricy but very good: save for it if needed, it is worth it (and needed as there is no kitchen in the cottage 😉).
The water could be ice cold at first, be patient, it will soon be (very) warm. Talk to the owner before your stay, it will explain the reason better than me!
One last point: the owner talked about a path to go to the shore of the fjord, but we didn't found it. Make sure he explain it to you clearly.

We stayed here for one night. We where a little concerned considering the remote area of the country. The owner greeted us very kindly and made us feel like at home. Once you step in you can feel the love she has put in to this place. I was really happy on how clean the house is. The bed limens where so clean and ironed. ♥️ the backyard was adorable. She had waffles for us and a home made jelly made. ♥️

Just a short walk out of town but far enough to be quiet and private. Guesthouse was a wonderful surprise. Modern, clean and a very well equipped kitchen for guests. Host even threw a pot of coffee on in the morning. Full fjord view from our bedroom. Turned out to be one of our best overnights in Iceland.
A great location on a farm, just next to a peninsula with its fair share of attractions (go check out the nearby Seal Center in Hvammstangi for a better understanding of the region's cutest mammal before driving around Vatnsnes to spot some seals lounging on rocks). Andrea was a very welcoming host, I really enjoyed talking with her and the breakfast was a nice bonus.
This place was very fun to stay at - there are horses on site and the world's friendliest canine greeter! The location is great - ocean view and very close to beautiful sites. The owners are welcoming. It apparently used to be a school before it was a hotel. Rooms are clean, breakfast was good, and location can't be beat. I loved getting to see horses our our window!
We loved the space and enjoyed watching some YouTube videos on the TV. We only stayed one night, so didn’t get to enjoy the place as much as we would have liked. It was one of the best places we stayed in Iceland. The town also had a nice restaurant we enjoyed. In the morning, there wasn't much in town for a quick breakfast though.
We loved everything about the cottage and the location. The surroundings were beautiful and serene with a view of the sea. The cottage inside was lovely: spacious and comfortable with pretty decor. The cottage was one of our two favorite overnight stays in our drive around the island. I wish we could've stayed longer.
Every thing was fine ,quirky hotel , host was great would have marked this up a lot more but our room was smelly from foul plumbing in the bathroom , Im not sure if this an issue with the other rooms but our room 11 whilst great clean and comfortable just marred by that.Breakfast was good and restaurant meal also
We really enjoyed our stay at Hvammstangi Hill Homes. Our unit was comfortable and the views and location were amazing. Our host was very responsive when we had trouble re-locking the door (make sure you push the handle all the way up before you turn the key!) The path by the nearby river is well worth exploring.
The cottages are exactly as new, comfortable, and beautiful as the photos. Very well designed. Almost everything you’d need is provided. And the views out every window are gorgeous. Fields, rolling hills, the fjord in the distance, and Icelandic horses prancing around in the field next door.
The hotel was nice and comfortable. Enjoyed having a TV to watch. There is not a restaurant on site. We did not pay for breakfast. There is a restaurant at the Museum. Not too many other places to eat. It was good place to stay on our way to our next stop.
A bit off of the beaten path and unconventional looking for a hotel, this newly re-opened hotel turned out to be a quaint and cozy place. The beds were super comfy and the rooms were very clean. Breakfast was great, too! I'd definitely stay there again!
We just came back from a truly wonderful stay at the guesthouse which was cosy and comfortable. The property has a very chill vibe and amazing amenities, really everything you could need whether you're there for adventure or relaxation or both.
I stayed there before really liked the place. This time one of the rooms had a leakage in the bathroom area, and the staff was able to change the room instantly for which I am very grateful. Overall I always liked this hotel!
We loved the place! It was our favourite in Iceland. Very nice room with an ocean view. Beautiful common space, very very big. Great bathrooms and the kitchen had just everything. Our host Olga was very warm and helpful.
The location suited travel plans coming from north to south west on route 1
Breakfast was satisfactory continental type breakfast expected on Iceland
Host very welcoming and made everything at ease
Very cozy, home like set up
Very comfortable sleep, the best night of sleep I had in Iceland
Great location close to Hvitzerkur
And most of all very hospitable and accommodating host Oskar
The cozy feeling you get in this place is truly awesome. It might look like a small cottage, but it has all you need inside for a good stay. Definitely better than most guesthouses etc.
