Hotel Selfoss
Room was clean. Ate breakfast in town and dinner. Across the street from hotel is food hall with excellent lunch options. Walkable to breakfast spots and dinner. Beautiful town. Close to Lava Tunnel and great stopping point on ring road. Only two hours to Vik

Heima Holiday Homes
Nice stay. The houses are very remote and dining options are about a 20-30 minute drive. The rooms were clean, our shower was clogged though. It’s a great place to view the northern lights since it is so remote. Great stay and seamless/easy check in.
