Hotel 3 Bintang di Mýrdalshreppur

We stayed here as the mid-point stop on our way to Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon. It is true that because it’s one of the larger hotels in the area, it is used by large tour groups, but that did not interfere with our stay at all. It is a roadside hotel, don’t expect any luxuries, but perfect for a one or two night stay. The rooms are very spacious and clean (because it’s a busy hotel, your room may not be ready before check-in time). The restaurant is large and they were able to accommodate us with no problem for dinner, and their breakfast buffet (included in the rate) is fantastic. It also has a great view. The location is great, close to Dyrholaey, Vik and Reynsfjara (black sand beach). Pro-tip: if you have dirty laundry, they will do it for you for about $25 per bag regardless of the size. I thought it was expensive so didn’t do it, and regretted it - everywhere else was either more expensive or didn’t offer the service at all. The staff works so hard - I saw the same person cleaning my room helping out at the restaurant, and everyone was very pleasant.

This was probably the biggest disappointment of our trip. It was the stay we were most looking forward to. The photos posted online led us to believe these cottages were in a quiet seaside nook where we would be able to sit on our deck and watch the ocean. We were shocked when we arrived. The cottages are in the busy little town core (lots of road noise), and between the cottages and ocean are commercial buildings and new hotel builds completely cutting off any ocean view. What’s more, directly in front of the cottages is a giant lot that filled with a huge field of no less than 50 families in campers outside our front door for the night. The cottage itself was plain with no artwork, beds were hard. Our TV did not work. Despite many tried we couldn’t get it to connect to Netflix or anything watchable other than BBC news. Our friends froze in their cottage. There is no soundproofing. Our friends shared the adjoining cottage (they are all joined with one another) and we heard every noise, their tv and most especially any time they left their room to go outside it would wake us up. The lock didn’t work properly so we couldn’t lock the front door at night. The bathroom is postage stamp sized without room for a shower so swing doors get popped out to shower. I spent the next 15 mins wading in 2 inches of water as I tried to dry off and get ready for the day. My husband had to use towels to stop the water flowing into the bedroom. Everyone else chose not to shower because of it. Hours later the floor hadn’t drained fully still. If you are going to stay here, taper your expectations.

Very good bar and restaurants, with good service too The room runs too small with very unreasonably petite washroom The big window can have a very good view for Aurora (if there is)

Nice hotel and we were upgraded to a superior room. Nice bathroom and toiletries. The rooms can get pretty hot when it’s sunny.

The apartment was more spacious than we imagined, more than enough room for 2 adults and 2 children. Very clean and the laundry room was an extra bonus. Location was directly on 1 walking distance to restaurants, grocery store, black sand beach, etc. staff was very helpful even when we had a late check in. I’d highly recommend this place as a stop over between Golden Circle and Glacier Lagoon!

Check in were smooth and the hotel was located near a convenient shop. Breakfast was good and staffs were very friendly and helpful.

The stay at Guesthouse Carina was like staying over at a friends', or a family member's house. As soon as I stepped in the door, I got homey vibes and my room really exceeded my expectations. My room was on the ground floor between one toilet and one bathroom which I thought was great, and all bathrooms and the toilet were clean and inviting. I did hear people talk outside the door, but not to a degree that it was disturbing me. There was a pair of ear plugs on the shelf, so it seems they are aware that some guests are more disturbed by people talking outside their doors. I hadn't booked my stay to include breakfast initially, but on the day of check-in I got an offer to book breakfast for 1900 ISK, so I did. The breakfast was served in the glass patio, which had a beautiful view of Vik and the black sand beach and the breakfast was really good. I loved the homemade Icelandic rye bread, it tasted like gingerbread cake! If I ever go back to Vik, I will definitely try to book a room at Guesthouse Carina again.

My wife and I stayed one night as part of a group tour. The room was clean and well prepared. The beds were very comfortable and made for a restful night. The bathroom was clean and well equipped. The guesthouse is part of a farm and very quiet. The location is rather remote and there are no eating establishments in the immediate vicinity. Our guide made sure we ate dinner before we checked into the guesthouse. Breakfast was a small buffet and more than sufficient. Waffles were prepared by employees of the guesthouse.

We really enjoyed our stay here. It’s quiet, only about 7 rooms. The girl working when we arrived is just the nicest and so hardworking. She was a huge help the day we arrived running our drenched clothing through the dryer for us. We will be forever grateful for that. Rooms are very spacious and clean. It’s sorta middle ground, not a fancy place by any means, but also a step above basic. Breakfast was lovely and included freshly scrambled eggs. They have great blackout curtains for blocking the never setting Iceland sun. There did seem to be a bit of a funky drain smell in the bathroom at times that wafted. Location was great for getting to Vik, black sand beaches, glacier hike, etc.
