"We really enjoyed our time in our static bus. The views of the mountain were superb, and it was nice to be able to walk some way up the side of it, to about 150 m. I could have gone higher if I was suitably equipped.
The bus itself was well equipped, though the kettle took a long time to boil. We planned our hot drinks well in advance. Linda was very helpful and supplied a bowl to do the dishes as there was no stopper in the sink.

As a group of four we all agreed that this was a unique rest stop and full of surprises. Steinar the owner, was a lovely host and the whole place was totally relaxed.
The pods we slept in were more than adequate, warm and cosy despite being December.
The Expedia pictures did not do the surrounding area justice, as we had no idea about the river and waterfall that ran in front of the main building, or the troll walks that had all been created by Steinar as well as the books he had written.

The Artist Lodge is the highlight of our round trip this autumn. It’s located close to a peaceful fjord, yet well connected to the capital and route 1. We’re glad to choose it as our final stop this time, to have a well relaxed farewell to Iceland. Guests can enjoy a natural hot spring 24/7.

Third stay here. Never disappoints. Located 1.5 hrs or so from Keflavik, overlooking a fjord. Hotel is cosy. A couple of hot tubs overlooking fjord. Breakfasts and dinners very good. Staff are attentive, friendly and efficient. Nice bar. Just a great place. A fourth visit is on the cards.

Such a beautiful place! The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. We got our timing wrong and had to arrive very late - the hosts were very nice and arranged everything so we could arrive very late. Breakfast was great! A lovely variety and very nice!

We had an amazing stay at this hotel during our visit to Iceland. We stayed in their cottage, and everything about the experience was perfect from start to finish. The cottage was cozy, comfortable, and a wonderful place to relax after a day of exploring.
The owners were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with anything we needed, which made our stay even more special. The location is also ideal - peaceful and perfectly situated for spotting the incredible Northern Lights....

What a view!
We arrived via the gravel road from the Hvita River valley, great drive.
Easy check in, we got in early too.
We were in the lodge building away from the main building where we were the inly guests.
After some sight seeing we returned and had drinks in the dining area where the picture window views are amazing.
We ate there also, where we had the soup (asparagus) and the fish (cod) - both generous and tasty portions.

Lovely property! Wish we had better weather to be able to utilize all the amenities! We arrived 4 hours before check in and they were able to accolade us quickly. Geothermal Hot tuba were amazing!
Only thing; bistro and restaurant on site are extremely expensive and not a huge selection. These are the only two food establishments for 5.6km - so plan accordingly. Standard Rooms do have a small fridge but do not have a microwave or anything to heat up food if you’re thinking of bringing your own

This hotel is very handy for wandering around Bogarnes. My overall impression is that it is run very efficiently. Being able to park right in front of the hotel made the arrival very easy, as was getting our room key at reception.
Rooms were spacious and
the ensuite was nice, the shower area was generous, which I appreciated.
Breakfast offered a wide selection, the seating area was spacious.

Yes, there are holiday rentals close to the most popular sights in Skorradalshreppur, or you can select a more secluded option if you're looking for a relaxing stay.
What’s there to see and do in Skorradalshreppur?
While you're exploring the area, Krossöxl and Glymur Waterfall are a couple of picturesque spots to get outside and enjoy nature. Deildartunguhver Hot Springs and Thingvellir National Park are a couple of places you'll find in the wider area.
What’s a holiday rental in Skorradalshreppur like?
Holiday rentals are private properties where you can stay for a few weeks, or just a few days, in Skorradalshreppur. Holiday rentals offer extras such as hot tubs, fire pits and patios so you'll have everything you need. If you're concerned about a sanitised environment, holiday rentals can provide a sense of seclusion away from public hotel lifts and busy front desks while still allowing you to travel. You'll also get more space in a holiday rental than in a hotel, which is another reason why a holiday rental is an attractive option for a family getaway.
