Overall Ratings & Reviews Hvammstangi Hill Homes

Modern, nice space. Shower was small, but otherwise very comfortable.

Grocery store was randomly closed the day we were there but otherwise big and beautiful place to stay with an amazing view!

This place was perfect for our mid journey stop en route to northern Iceland. It was so cosy and welcoming, with everything catered to. The owner left us some very useful tips about things to do and see nearby. We had an incredible night here as we got to see the aurora in a cloudless sky for hours!!! The seal watching nearby, the next morning was a bonus.

We were given a different room on day of arrival, but still there were many flys. We spent over an hour to catch over 40 flys but the owner only responded with an apology without any actions. Next morning there were more flys and we suspect they were hiding in the ceiling. It was a horrible experience like no other places we stayed in Iceland. Cannot imagine how much worse it will become in summer.

We drove here bummed because we haven’t seen the northern lights yet. Late at night we heard rumbling outside and the lights were bright and right at in front of our place. Loved this place and its cleanness. My friends and I said we would stay here again.

We loved our stay at the Hvammstangi Hill Homes - it was quiet and the house very clean and cozy. We even saw the northern lights from the side of the house last night!

Good peaceful and the serene surroundings to immerse in . Absolutely gorgeous

Lovely apartment with plenty of room and home amenities. The staff was very communicative with directions and contactless registration. Property was clean with beautiful views of the fjord.

Beautiful location, would recommend.

Nice place

The units had a nice kitchen, bathroom, living room, and bedroom. They're in a small town, and away from both the ring road and the main street in town enough that you won't hear any noise.

Great family vacation stopover spot. Very clean. There’s a small utility room with a clothesline to dry your suit if coming from an outdoor hot spring visit. Know that most rentals in the area have hot spring hot water systems that will smell like well water, not something that can be helped to my knowledge. Just saying to point out it isn’t an issue to be concerned with. There is a pretty full kitchen as pictured and picnic table out front. The grocery store in town closes early and opens late, so get your provisions early if that’s your plan. There’s a great seafood restaurant next door if you miss the timing. The walk into town from the unit along a small waterfall stream and park was really pleasant and makes the area feel much more walkable. If you are planning on seal watching in the area, many of the roads are not paved as of June 2024, so plan on double the time your gps claims. Many of the spots are closed due to tourists scaring the seals away, so do some research first. If pointing out anything to improve, the unit’s bedroom has two twin bed frames that can spread apart some if using as a single bed. Many European flats have two twins as a single queen/full, but often with one big frame to keep them from drifting apart.

A very cozy place to stay. Cute town. The house was very warm (good for cold summers, not so great for a summer night). Wasn’t sure how to turn down the thermostat. WiFi worked great. Everything is explained in the handy-dandy notebook. Bring your own coffee/tea/sugar for the morning. The laundry at the local swimming pool charges 2500ISK for a load (?!?!).

spectacular views of sound, easy access around town, wonderfully clean and new.

Very nice guesthouse with view. Room is big and clean.
