Guesthouse Dyngja was our favorite accommodation on our recent ring road trip. It is right in the middle of town, with 4 restaurants less than a block away, plenty of parking, and offered an easy walk out the edge of the harbor (good for sunset). Very modern/up to date furnishings and everything is spotless (probably recently renovated because everything just seemed new). Beautiful large pix of south Iceland sites on the wall. We met several other families also staying there and the shared kitchen area was plenty big enough for multiple groups to share the space along with a very large shared refridgerator. Coordination on arrival (via code) was straightforward. Generally, we also just liked Hofn a lot as well (especially on a clear day when the glaciers are visible in the distance!)

Great spot right at the Hofn harbor
You’d be lucky to snag the studio apartment while in Hofn. It’s nicer than the photos — spacious, modern and clean. The kitchen is stocked with cookies, tea and instant coffee. The shower water pressure is adequate but not strong. The only negatives were the bed pillows are too thick and the porch light is on all night with light coming around the blackout shades.

+ clean, quiet, comfortable accomodation, modern kitchen and bathroom, everything was fine - phone number is wrong (not +345 but +354) and we also didn't receive an e-mail with check-in info including pin code for keybox. After call with correct area code went the communication great, customer care was really helpful

The room was bright, airy and clean. It was next to a Main Street but there was no traffic at night. We had a nice little patio for coffee and a view of the harbor. Lots of little extra’s in the room made us feel at home. We wanted to stay another night. We loved the coffee machine!

Yummy cookies.
Cute little apartment. Close to food. Offered some yummy oatmeal chocolate cookies. Middle of the night the drain pipe fell off the bathroom sink. Looked quite plugged (yuck). Only sink so was interesting getting ready the next morning. Tried to call office twice with no answer.

We had a great stay here! The location was great and the space was modern, clean, and overall lovely. The host was very accomodating with our late check-in, as our day included lots of driving and we didn't specifically know our timing as we wanted to make sure we didn't miss anything along our route. :) Weould recommend!

We stayed in the studio apartment and they left us the key in a lockbox so we never met any of the staff. Wasnt a bad thing. Area is very convenient and has so many good dining options literally across the street. Room was clean and had most of everything we needed. Great hot water and water pressure. The room could use a TV though. Not alot of options in Höfn but id definitely stay there again

It’s a great guesthouse with 4 restaurants next door, good parking, well equipped kitchen. The reception is a bit confusing they just leave the key for you and you have to work things out for yourself, their needs to be clearer instruction. Most people arriving were confused for a bit. I was lucky I arrived early at 2.30 pm so someone was there to explain a few things

Great location
We came in late and a little disorganized (our apologies to the host), but the host quickly and cheerfully checked us in and got us settled. The place was clean and appeared recently renovated. Centrally located in Hofn, near the harbor and visitors center, the hotel has great views over the water. Very reasonable price for the area. This may be because the road in front is being rebuilt (no noise trouble at night though), making it a little difficult to find the way to the hotel and the parking behind.
