Good Place for 1 Night stop !
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.

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.

Linda was wonderful and friendly at checkin. She personally took us down to our room at the guesthouse, chatted for a moment and gave helpful info. The property is a great location in the middle of Vestrahorn. Clean, quiet, lovely stay - Thank you!

Great stay. I keep returning. 2 separate guesthouses. One is with simple and standard rooms in the same building as the cafe and facilities for camper vans. Second is with family rooms and a short distance drive away for even more serenity and quietness. Fantastic and most hospitable staff. Standard Icelandic breakfast.
