The room was cosy and warm with a fantastic view of the river. The bed was comfortable and there was a small kitchenette with limited facilities, however we were able to use the shared kitchen to cook our meal, which was very useful. We were also delighted that they accommodated our request for an earlier breakfast due to an early ferry. Breakfast had some varied options, and good coffee and we were very happy to have been able to eat before we left. The staff were very helpful and we enjoyed our short stay.

There is still some building work going on around the site, however no disturbances, just a little unsightly. The room itself was a bit tricky to find as it faced the river, so not obvious from the carpark, however we fortunately were guided to our room by the owner.

Breakfast was good with friendly staff. The river view was nice. Short drive into town. Many highland tours offer free pickup in Hella making it a convenient home base.

There are some minor maintenance issues and small touches that would go a long way if addressed. Flush button for the toilet was misaligned with the tank and stuck on the lid. Window latch was messed up. Door lock was non-intuitive but at least they provided an explanation for it. Would have preferred a conventional locking method. It would be nice to have a shelf or caddy in the shower for holding your toiletries. That could be as simple as a suction cup mounted one. Toilet paper roll holder was mounted directly above the heater which seemed like a potential fire hazard.

The wooden lodges on the river side were very comfortable and clean. The breakfast room, although small (they are building a new, bigger room) was fine and the friendly company of the owners more than made up for its size. Breakfast was simple but good - yoghurt, fruit, cereal, eggs and toast, tea, coffee, orange juice. The owners also have a wonderful self contained wooden lodge next door which would be perfect for families.

Everything was good the only thing which potentially could be an issue is the rooms are not very sound proof so if you are unlucky enough to have noisy neighbours it could be a pain.

Loved the breakfast and the staff, they were very kind when we came by on the wrong day to help us figure it out. The location is very peaceful. We saw a farmer moving their herd of horses to the pasture for summer, 50 horses running outside on the street, very cool!

The walls weren’t very sound proof, we could hear our neighbors up late talking. Some parts of the location are also still under construction, which wasn’t a big deal for us but less parking and there were pallets set up with construction trucks outside our room.

Loved everything about this place !!! The owner was very nice and provided info of the area .. Breakfast was filling for a morning starter. The beds were super comfy and the rooms perfect for my daughter and I. I have recommended this place to friends that will be traveling in the near future.

Black out shades but to the sun not setting but that was early over come with hanging a blanket. Also the hot water runs out fast if you don’t catch it at the right time.

The breakfast was excellent. We met many nice Icelanders, but the woman who served breakfast was especially gracious and friendly. Of all of our experiences with local people on hotel staffs, we will remember her. Her warmth made our stay memorable. Also, the price was the best value we found.

The room faced west and lacked blackout curtains. It was difficult to cut out enough light for sleeping, with local sunset at 11:22 pm and sunrise at 3:30 am.

Beautiful location on the river in Hella. Our room had a view of the river and some fishermen hard at work, as well as the nearby snow capped mountains. The sunset was lovely on the night we arrived, it's a picturesque and peaceful location just out of town and has everything you need for a great stay. The communal kitchen was fantastic, we cooked our dinner there on the night we arrived and had an amazing breakfast with the hosts the following morning. The fresh sourdough from the local bakery was a plus. Our room was warm, cosy and very comfortable. The Netflix connection was a good bonus. We had a great stay!

The twin beds.

The rooms had been nicely laid out and the beds were super comfortable. We used the shared kitchen area which was really good and had everything you needed.

Our room felt like they had started doing it up and not finished it. The wardrobes had no hanging poles or shelves. This didn’t matter to us as only there one night. The room was lovely just odd with the wardrobes

Serene location and beautiful surroundings. The rooms were aptly furnished. The management/staff was quite helpful and friendly.

The walls were too thin and you could hear sounds from adjacent rooms. In addition, there was some electrical issues. One of our rooms lost power in the middle of the night due to some wiring issue and the staff couldn’t fix it till next morning.

The place was very clean, cozy and equipped with everything needed. The location is easy to find, just follow the guidance provided in Booking. In a night without clouds, you can even see the Northern Lights from the porch in front of your room!! The family owning the place are extremely kind and warm people. Gave us a lot of helpful recommendations and prepared delicious breakfast, which you can enjoy with a lovely view :) Definitely would love to come back again and highly recommend it.
