Arnarstapi Hotel

The area by this hotel is amazing. It was clean and nice, though on the smaller side. Hot water is limited but shouldn’t be an issue if you take quick showers.

Great place to stay

Hotel is next to the shore so if it's a nice day, you can walk and the view will be amazing but if it's raining, have in mind that the walk to your room is open space (no roof). Btw, the apple map drives you further, the hotel reception is at the restaurant.

A small table where you can eat or use your laptop would be nice. We had 2 chairs but no table. Check in was quick. We were given our keys and nothing else. No other information about the area or anything else.

We had a room with a view of the ocean which was wonderful. The area is incredibly small with limited options to eat, but there are a few walkable places. We had desert at the restaurant at the hotel. We were there on an incredibly windy night. Thr wind was so strong in sounded like it would blow the door open. There's not a lot of parking near the rooms. We had no hot water which was terrible. There are even signs in the room that says they are in a cold area and hot water is limited. Our hot water with non existent. The heat in the room was also very poor, we were cold when we slept. We didn't see anyway to adjust the heat. Other than that the room was comfortable and looked very nice. The stools for night stands are a little odd. It would have been a much better stay if the hot water and heat had been working. I mentioned the water to the front desk and they offered me hot coffee.

Great location while travelling. Clean room.

nice room, clean quiet, parking is good, restaurant is good but a bit pricy. we had view of mountain which was amazing

Great location beautiful sunrise

Construction everywhere!

I liked the proximity to the Arnarstapi cliff area. Room was clean, simple. Restaurant on site had good food.

This was the best hotel in our entire stay in Iceland. The little wooden building with our room was kind of rudimental simplistic from the outside but very nicely equipped and comfortable. The view from the large floor to ceiling window was astonishingly beautiful. The restaurant was also nice, and they served good traditional Icelandic food too. I would recommend this hotel to any of my friends. I would like to go back sometimes hopefully in the near future. :)

Decent accommodations, fine for stopping for the night. Has everything you need for the night.

Great location, walking distance to several sightseeing places. For check in, we had to wait a bit as the staff also work at the restaurant . The room is clean, a bit small for 3 people. There is limitation on hot water usage which is understandable.

No frills lodging option that was adequate on its own without unwelcoming staff. When we entered the reception area, we had a very cold and delayed check-in by staff who were more preoccupied with cleaning dishes than addressing their guests. It felt like we were a bother and verbal check-in instructions were unclear. The shower also had an all-in-one shampoo, conditioner and body wash. While satisfactory, this was not a standout.

Amazing food and service; the rooms are very cozy and clean, and our room had a beautiful view of the ocean.

This is an especially easy hotel and very nice and simple rooms. The area is stunning and close to the national park too. I can’t wait to go back!

This hotel is a little gem situated in a naturally beautiful part of Iceland. Walking distance from the hotel one finds themselves surrounded by the ocean, volcanic cliffs, birds, mountains and Waterfalls. Jump in the can and explore even more, and if you have a 4X4 take the F-Roads up toward the glacier and see the natural marvels this area offers. There is weather, so pack or wear protection against rain and wind — but this is Iceland, so you are proibably already equipped.

It was a nice room. We had a family room that had a king size bed and twin in one room and a twin bed in another room. Also had a small fridge, microwave, table and chairs, and small couch — best part was two bathrooms. The location was awesome, such beautiful shoreline and mountains. Only complaint is breakfast wasn’t included.

Decent hotel great area

This was such a unique place to stay. The setting is incredible with a cliffside walk right outside. The room was quite small and no extra pillows or blankets, and it was really utilitarian but fine. The restaurant food was mediocre at best but I understand why it's so expensive because it's soooo rural. If you stay here keep in mind that there's not really anything around for over an hour. BUT, we saw a spectacular northern lights display around 8pm and it was absolutely one of the highlights of the trip so far. I'm not sure I'd drive that far out of the way to stay there again but it was memorable and unique so I'm glad we did.
