Feels Like Home
We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Bjarg. The best way to describe our room is homey. We were greeted at the door by the owner (I wish I knew his name) He told us stories about the area, suggested sites to see, told us about when he worked on a fishing vessel... We thoroughly enjoyed listing to his stories. The room, though not very big, was clean, and everything was in good working order. It felt like we were staying with friends at their house. We had a room with an attached bathroom. Very clean. There were books to read, a refrigerator, and a wonderful view out the windows above the bed. I will stay there again if we are back in the area!

Comfortable luxury at an affordable price
We stayed in the suite and were not disappointed. The bed, linens, and towels were the nicest out of all the hotels we stayed at on our travel around the ring road. The room has a wall full of windows that overlooks the water and you can hear the brook while you lay in bed. The room was large with a seating area. The town is cute, but tiny. We enjoyed the owner and his helpful tips about where to eat and what sites to see in Iceland.

Nice view over the fjord
The hotel suite has a funny deco mix, is large and with a vertical nice view on the fjord. Some equipments would benefit from a refreshment soon.

Sleepy village
Very old hotel in a sleepy village. Hotel dining room not open as stated. Only 1 cafe and a petrol station which served food. Just a sleepy village not geared for tourists. A shame as surrounding countryside magnificent!

Excellent service. Very kindly staff.
Excellent service and very kindly staff. I had to change my original reservation to accomodate an additional person and the staff very promptly helped and made the ajustments for me. The hotel was very clean and comfortable. Mr Karvel was very kind and provided us with recommendations for diner and even gave us some tips to see the Northern Lights (unfortunately we were not able to see them).

A disaster!
We arrived at the hotel around 9:30pm due to rainy weather and driving around the fjords. When we checked in our room with twin beds was given away and the host billed our credit card because he thought we weren't going to show. The room was outdated 70s style. When I took a shower there was a gap between the wall and shower and it flooded the floor. Had to retrieve extra towels to mop up the floor. I would never recommend the hotel. What a waste of money.

Old hotel in a small town
It's a old hotel, and some interesting display in front desk area. For one night stay is ok, convenience parking.

Poor service with extremely small rooms
No one at reception upon arrival. Rung bell provided 2 times before phoning the phone number on the front door. Staff was dressed professionally at all. The 2 beds only had 6 inches between them. Way to narrow for 2 beds. Should have been a 1 bedroom unit.

My husband and I stayed here for two nights during our ring road trip. Owner is very friendly and the hotel is very clean. Just know that everything in this town closes at 9pm, except the gas station.

Nice hotel.
We stayed two nights at the hotel. Our room had a great view of the fjord. It was spacious with two beds which were very comfortable resulting in a good sleep. Two bathrooms on our floor one with a shower. Bathrooms were very clean. Breakfast cost extra but was good with many choices. We would recommend this hotel. If you have trouble using stairs as no elevator ensure you call the hotel as they have a room on the main floor.

A warm, economical & personable experience
Really enjoyed staying at this cozy hotel. The owner went out of his way to make sure we had a nice stay & enjoyed ourselves. We told him what we were interested in and he recommended a drive our tour book didn't give much praise to and we had the most wonderful time and saw some beautiful sights-our most favorite day in Iceland!

Hospitality at its finest.
The owner went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable. We got in really late and without asking made us all sandwiches. He was so kind and open to questions. The room was huge and had a kitchen table. The room was awesome. Highly recommend.

Located on a fjord, with excellent views.
We were doing the Ring Road and this was our 4th stop. The hotel is conveniently located and we had a great view from the room - water and mountain in front. The owner Karvel is very friendly and tried to make our stay very comfortable. Breakfast was included, he knew we are vegetarians, so in the breakfast buffet, he had a plate of veggies for us. He gave us a lot of information, very helpful and saw us off to our car.

The staff was excellent and helpful as we arrived very, very late. The room was spacious with a beautiful view, however it did not have a shower and was quite far away from key visitor points. The owner was very helpful and provided a different shower facility.

Good Host
The room was very small, but it was clean, which you cannot say about a lot of accommodation in Iceland. Good breakfast and hosts were very friendly and gave great advice.
