Overall Ratings & Reviews Grundarfjördur Hostel

Would stay again

Exactly what you would expect from a good hostel. Clean, with easy access, well equipped communal kitchen, free parking right up the street, walking distance from grocery store, restaurants, and the shore.

Very nice area, the hostel was clean and the check in process was easy. Would stay here again.

Cleanliness was lacking in this property! We were the only guests at the property however it was clear the kitchen was not properly cleaned before our arrival.

Stay was nice , have to park the car little away from accomodation, the famous mountain is very near and we could see northern lights from near by parking area.

Excellent guesthouse in town, the only down side is parking is a block away but you can park by the door to load unload.

Great location on the peninsula with great food options nearby

Nice and quiet environment

A less social hostel, the only time you’ll see other people is in the kitchen. The beds are thinner than other Hostels in Iceland (we stayed at Kex in Reykjavik as well), and the pillows were harder. The views though are really nice, the service is what you’d expect, and the kitchen is minimally but sufficiently stocked with cooking utensils.

Very welcome lady!!!

In a cute little Icelandic town

The hostel was clean, quiet, and had enough bathrooms for everyone.

Good location

Such an awesome town and surrounding area. absolutely gorgeous. and the hostel was perfect for my needs

You get what you need.

Very easy check in process, good location and clean rooms.

The staff was really friendly and helpful. 5 stars for that! Toilet needs abit more care for as one was alittle stinky. But it’s a shared bathroom so it’s not the guesthouse fault. Overall stay is ok.

The hostel was located near the center of Grundarfjordur. Instructions on accessing keys to the entrance and room was sent by email a few days before arrival. Our room was on the first floor and was clean and quiet. There were four separate rooms on our floor at each corner and one and half bathrooms. The occupants of the other rooms did not disturb others and made our stay pleasant. Only problem was figuring out the bathroom shower controls and operation as it had a hand spray and 3 side sprays. The kitchen was supplied with all the necessary items for cooking and storing food. We would stay at this hostel again since it was well organized and had a limit on occupants on each floor, allowing bathroom access and limiting noise.

Nice place for a night with a good kitchen. Thin walls so bring a pair of ear plugs

Quiet, lovely location
