Room was good for the two nights we stayed. Staff was very responsive and kind. Complimentary breakfast is always a plus! Being right by Vestrahorn Mountain and getting free access to the surrounding area included in your stay is something you can’t beat!
Cute stop over stay. Comes with access to Viking village and black sand beach that was almost empty! Otherwise, you have to pay like 2500 idk per person to enter. Nice little breakfast that comes with the stay also
Your average accommodation in terms of room, however the staff were lovely and the complimentary breakfast was great! Not to mention the fact that you are located right under the shadow of Vestrahorn Mountain and access to the beach as well as Viking village is included with your stay! Spent two nights here and would definitely recommend.
We loved our stay here! The room was new and very comfortable. The location is great, with easy access to Stokksnes. The breakfast in the morning was also nice.
We stayed here for one night on our trip around the ring road in early October. The location is fantastic! We were in one of the newly built rooms (#9) and had a view of Vestrahorn! It was clean, comfortable and quiet. We ate at the cafe and the food was good. Staff were helpful and friendly. The area is unbelievably gorgeous! I would definitely recommend!
Our stay includes multiple entries to Stokksnes which is a great deal. That place is beautiful. Breakfast is fresh, hot and has good selection. We bought sandwiches for the lunch to go. Staff is friendly and helpful. The only thing is room is a little small. If you were a fit person like me or most Icelanders, you won't have any problem with the shower stall.
Highly recommended Viking Cafe and Guesthouse if you are visiting Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Bench. This property has hiking trails of 4 to 6km and we get free access because we are house guests. The Viking Village is right on site. We stayed at room 6, short driiving distance from main cafe. Breakfast was decent and nice. There were fruits, ham, cheese and cinnamon rolls etc. The room is well kept, looks newly renovated, was cosy and comfortable. The bed mattresses are of high quality and we slept well. Do bring your own toiletries for Iceland Trip. The shampoo and body wash bottles were placed on the floor. We had our own toiletries so we were fine. Room has a kettle for your hot drinks.
You do get tickets to the Viking village. Not a lot of food options

We used this as a base of operations for our yr stay in Hofn and I would not recommend. This is a good one night stop over - the Stokknes peninsula and Vestrahorn are beautiful and access to the beach and movie set are included in the overnight stay
Cons: There is a 4k gravel road leading in and out of this location that made it difficult to access. While WiFi was available in the cafe, it did not reach our room. We had to go to the cafe for anything internet related. The water pressure in the shower was abysmal. I did not want to wash my hair in the shower because it was such a small trickle.
Pros: Access to the beach and movie set (Witcher blood origin) is included with stay. The room is large. Breakfast is included - standard Iceland though they did have fresh fruit which I appreciated.
