Overall Ratings & Reviews Hótel Varmahlíð

Well located, clean hotel with nice staff and a decent restaurant.

The location was very convenient and the room was comfortable. The only reason I gave one star off for comfort is because our room was directly above the entry door and people hung out below, and it was a little loud at times other than that it was a wonderful experience with delicious food at the restaurant. I would stay here again.

Nice low key road hotel. Breakfast was minimalistic compared to other hotels. Bathroom drain was clogged. Windows facing hotel entrace where people would go out to smoke, so smell cam into the room, as well as midges, since no screens on windows

Very comfy quiet room..TV offered some variety in free chamnels. Very nice breakfast. Friendly staff.

Nice staff and good food for dinner and breakfast

The furniture and carpet is dated but otherwise it was a very nice stay. The staff was nice and spoke English well, the room was comfortable, and the meals (dinner and breakfast) were good. The hotel was quiet indoors and there was no noise from outside. It’s conveniently located on the ring road. Check in and check out was easy.

Easy check-in. Great on-site restaurant, although like the rest of Iceland, food is not cheap. Very comfortable room. Bathroom was very small.

Great hotel in a remote area Rooms were great and dining and breakfast were also very nice Understand hotel is owned by local Icelanders so glad we could support a local business Your staff is amazing!

Great hotel! Staff were amazing. Rooms spacious and clean. Restaurant was quite limited. Small gas station/convenience store across the street, otherwise for anything else it’s a 30 minute drive. Was everything we needed though. Would stay here again.

When we arrived around 5:00 there was nobody at the front desk. We called a number on their card and a woman answered and said she would come back. She came within 5 minutes. Just as she arrived another woman came out from somewhere to help. It was just odd.

Easy stay

Staff was great property clean and convenient.

It's just to spend the night and continue with the itinerary. Probably I will not recommend, mainly because it is mentioned that reception is available until 22.00 and I arrived by 20.30 and no one was there, most of the lights turned off and only an envelope with my name and key.

Friendly staff, spacious rooms

Fantastic place to stay, very friendly staff, very peaceful.

There is not much to do around town but we stopped here along the ring road. The staff was friendly and we saw the northern lights right above the hotel. There is a gas station right across the street as well but that’s about it. On Expedia, under hotel amenities and things to do it says sauna. I want to warn people there is NO SAUNA. There is a TV but it’s not a smart or streaming TV so you get four stations and they are all cops lol. There is a kettle in the room with tea which was nice. Breakfast was okay- nothing special. Probably wouldn’t stay here again.

I give 4 because I think they should clear snow and ice at the front door. Beside of this , stuff is nice and breakfast on time.

Nice place to stay. I would stay there again.

Check in process was easy. Staff was great. The only reason I gave it. A four star was on the carpet on the stairs is getting worn out. Would stay afain

Staff helpful. All basic amenities (even shampoo conditioner and bath gel!) and a hot water kettle. Helpful for us tea drinkers. Restaurant serves good horse and lamb steaks at reasonable price (by Icelandic standard) and a good breakfast spread. Easy to locate just off the round island Hwy 1.
