Overall Ratings & Reviews Dimmuborgir Guesthouse

Felt very welcomed. It was great!!

Cozy rooms with a beautiful location on Lake Mývatn! Loved the breakfast- great choices and a wonderful way to start the day.

Checked in super late but all was good - instructions left on the counter and I found my room with no problems at all. This is a lovely area and my room overlooked the lake, plenty of parking was available and the hotel is arranged into units so I think the idea is you drive to your room and park outside. The room was comfortable and clean, coming with plenty of sockets to charge my electronics and a private shower room. There was lots of natural light coming through the large windows. I got a great nights sleep. Next morning I paid for breakfast which had cereals, cold meats, coffee etc and although it was good it was a bit too fancy for my liking. The view from the conservatory in the breakfast room was stunning however. Check out was easy, the staff were all friendly and before I knew it I was on my way. Would recommend to others, I would stay again if the price was right!

Great location. Awesome view of volcano from the guesthouse. Nice people working here. We booked a larger 2 bedroom unit - they said the heater was broken so they moved us to a smaller unit. Sounds awesome - of note, there was no center heat to break.. it was space heaters (so I’m guessing they gave our unit to someone else). Worked out well for us - they were very kind about it and also gave us free breakfast for this. Also wasn’t soap or shampoo in the shower - so we didn’t shower here. Property is awesome. People were kind. I’d stay here again.

The host left our key and directions to our cabin at the check in. We were pleasantly surprised by a larger cabin than we had booked. We didn’t see the host until we checked out two days later. The kitchen was functional. No towels were provided for bathing. The northern lights were visible both nights we were there.

I thought the cabin was very nice and the people who ran were very nice!

The pictures are very misleading. You’re not in a tiny cabin, you’re in 1/4 of a tiny cabin. There’s also a picture of a hot tub, but only 1 cabin has one and access to it. I wouldn’t have booked it if the website wasn’t misleading in those ways. It was clean, but not what was advertised

In a gorgeous area. Close to lots of adventure. Very easy to check in, very easy to find your room. Walls are a little thin, but the room was great and cozy when I got in.

This was a nice property at Lake Mývatn. The rooms were small, but it met our needs. Bathroom was clean and had plenty of geothermal hot water! Breakfast was also good!

Beautiful property and kind and professional staff. Appreciated the shared kitchen facilities. Room was a bit small but enjoyed our stay and the area.

Beautiful setting, comfortable rooms, great breakfast, the only downside is the bathroom smells like a musty basement.

I love it!

It was safe, clean, had everything we needed. Cute small but quaint.

Beautiful property. View of the lake is amazing and serene. Comfortable beds. Great breakfast. We arrived late and were disappointed to find a tour buses parked in front of our two cabins. Recommend property asks tour buses park behind cabin to avoid obstructing view of the lake from cabins.

We liked this place a lot. The house was very clean and close to the nature spa. We had a private hot tub which we loved. The staff is very friendly and kind and they make an amazing breakfast. We enjoyed our stay here very much. They also have two hotel dogs which my kids loved. The dogs were so friendly and sweet. We walked around the complex which is located right on the lake and it was beautiful.

I hate to give this place a bad review because the staff was so helpful and friendly but the place was way overpriced for what it was. Everything in Iceland is expensive but this was the most expensive place we stayed and definitely the oldest and most run down. Additionally, we had a cabin with a hot tub. When we arrived - they said the flies had been out so they emptied & refilled it for us (amazing service) but why didn't they have a cover for the hot tub and if flies are out in force in the summer there - why do they offer the hot tub at all? We did not use it - though we paid extra for that room. I'm not talking a few flies - they literally offered us all nets to put over our heads to wear to deal with the number of flies. Yuck! I would skip Myvatn altogether if you are going to Iceland in the summer. Stay in Husavik instead!

Very small room with minimal amenities but clean and very friendly staff. Lovely location and good breakfast

Tight room with good rolla shutters to keep the light and noise out. Good location for the sites around lake Myvtan. Shared kitchen and lounge area was clean and well organised. Gets a little crowded with three different rooms trying to cook at once. But overall good place to stay.

We've stayed in better places while in Iceland, but it was alright. Great view from our double room 11. The rooms are small and the walls are thin. But neighbors were quiet. A very handy communal kitchen area. The place has easy access to all the sights Lake MyVatn has to offer.

Guesthouse was great and had a kitchen, laundry adjacent. The guesthouse room was really small, it was tough to unpack in such a small space and wish rooms were slightly bigger. Otherwise everything was clean and perfect.
