Overall Ratings & Reviews Guesthouse Svínavatn

Amazing view and it comfortable ammenities although only one plug in the room

Lovely property by the lake. Good facilities to cook and spacious dining area.

It’s by a small lake, very quiet, with beautiful lake views. Our group of 8 people shared kitchen and dinning area among ourselves. Each room has own bathroom. Breakfast is provided with no charge. Check in and out are very easy. Thanks for a very nice stay.

Clean, comfortable, very friendly welcome , easy check in, good breakfast …… and an astonishing location. All in all excellent

The guesthouse was lovely, well laid out with the shared kitchen, dinning area and entertainment area. Heaps of space, rooms are clean and very impressed with the cleanliness of the rooms and shared areas! There is a huge area on the accommodation location to explore to see sheep and Icelandic horses next to a lake! Me and my husband had a good afternoon doing that once we settled into our rooms. Would recommend to others 👍

Beautiful location on a quiet lake with horses nearby (and sheep farther away). Room and bathroom were spartan and clean. Large kitchen and supplies to prepare your own meals (which you may want to do since this is fairly isolated).

The reception is at second floor if shared bathroom rooms, with reception sign on the building. The staff is very nice, provided me extra service

Clean and comfortable. Beautiful setting around the lake.

It was about 20km from Blonduos by the lake but the road was fine. Really nice place with kitchen facilities. Spacious room.

Out of town, but the restaraunt is great for a meal & the breakfast quite satisfying. You can walk around the cemetery & there is a little cute church there as well.

This place was a perfect place to stay "off the beaten path" along our road trip. Beautiful views of the water! The breakfast was good and convenient, as it is about a 15-20 min drive to any restaurants/markets. Nearest town (Blonduos) has a great restaurant in town (Teni's) that serves Ethiopian food!

Excellent accommodations, very scenic location.

Nice place but very basic. She checked us in early which was really appreciated as we were in a snowstorm. The place has all the necessities but no breakfast or dinner you need to drive to Blondus for those. That’s about 25 minutes drive.

This property is worth the money for what you get. Room was cozy and clean and the water pressure in the bathroom was great. The location was perfect for where we needed to get and the view was stunning.

Beautiful guesthouse we shared with two lovely canadian ladies.Property is outstanding,very quiet,about 20 mins from Blonduos.Staff were lovely and made sure we felt comfortable.

Great stay.

What a lovely guesthouse! Right on the lake, spacious rooms with comfortable beds and decent bathrooms, a kitchen for cooking or warming food, comfy sofas in the lounge area and a great breakfast. The owner was very friendly on check in and at breakfast. 5 out of 5!

This is a family-run guesthouse, situated on their farm that is on a lovely lake. The guesthouse was clean and safe, albeit a bit spartan. Nonetheless, it had everything we needed. There is a shared kitchen for the guests to use and we made our own dinner, as there are no restaurants we found close by. Breakfast is provided. While a bit off the beaten path, the location was lovely and a great place for hikers and those exploring off the main highway. The check in/out process was very easy and the young lady who greeted us was very kind and helpful.

Extremely clean! Nice place. Prompt and friendly host who showed us our room. Lovely lake and mountain views from front deck. Clean communal kitchen with coffee!

Despite being closed, the guesthouse still honoured a reservation made very early this year. Their flexibility and the service was wonderful and we appreciated being able to spend the night. An absolutely spectacular location overlooking the lake, the guest rooms and common area are very spacious and comfortable.
