This Is What They Say

The apartment is very modern, clean, nice, and well-equipped. We had everything we needed for our stay in the rooms and bathroom, as well as the fridge in our room. By the way, the snack and drink fridge in the corridor was also an amazing idea! The owners are very friendly and nice; they provided us with very useful information and instructions we needed for our stay, and they were always there to respond quickly to our questions, etc. What's more, it was so nice to receive their little welcome gift: Icelandic chocolate! We also loved this little charming city very much. We hope to come back again one day. Highly recommended! P.S. the location is amazing !

Great location. We saw aurora from the guest house on our last day. We drove about 3 minutes to avoid artifical lights of the town and saw the aurora very clear. The bathroom has rain shower. Nice room. It has microwave but no cutlery. The fridge made quite some noise. We stayed for 2 nights but no clear instruction where to throw away trash from the room.

What a Great location to explore the golden circle! I stayed here for three days. It’s in a walking distance cafes, hot spring spa, and “bread making spot”. The hospitality was amazing. The hosts were always available to give the locals’ recommendations and answer all questions.

Great room to stay in, but unfortunately the walls were very thin so you could hear the neighbours easily. Also the fridge made a lot of noise which even woke me up. But the owners of the hotel were kind and easy to reach. They respond very fast. Also the facilities of the room were great and the room was very clean and new.

Amika McDowall

Me and my travel partner had an amazing stay Bjork Guesthouse! The entry was easily accessible, and parking very convenient. The room was clean and comfortable. They also left chocolates in the room, which were absolutely amazing.

Melanie Hutter

What a wonderful guesthouse! The owners are very friendly and helpful, gave very good information even before the stay. I got an whatsapp, that the room is earlier ready to check in. The spot is a perfect starting point for the golden circle AND the highland (F35).

Anton Zhukov

We booked it in quite short notice but were very surprised by a good price and excellent conditions! The room is nice, bathroom is clean and great, parking spot is wide and right in front of the building, room is equipped with self-check-in and a code sent by an owner via whatsapp which is very convenient. There is a teapot, complimentary coffee/tea and electricity to charge all your devices! The comms with the owner was great and super fast! 100% recommend!

Ben Grebing
