I felt welcomed and the guesthouse offers a breakfast buffet during our stay. There were no dinner option when we checked in; however, there are restaurants in the area. Love this fishing village, it’s a great place to spot some birds and puffins (Jun to Aug). OK

Convenient location, fantastic views, solid rooms. Great breakfast. Could hear people in other rooms a bit. The only real snag was parking ran out late at night.

If you want an old school hotel and hospitality experience, look no further. The rooms are basic but quite large, and immaculately clean. The bathroom is a decent size as well with enough room in the shower and sink to comfortably bathe and wash. The hotel was very quiet, and the breakfast in the morning was plentiful and delicious. The breakfast buffet included cooked eggs, bread, pastries, cereal, pancakes, etc. It was a great start to our day. I will definitely stay here again!

Great location for puffin viewing in nesting season! Very helpful, friendly staff. Personal service. Fresh, healthy food choices. Clean, comfortable rooms. Located in an interesting small community. We are grateful that the owners were able to help us out when our booking at another hotel fell through due to a booking error.

Great location, tucked in the valley, and situated in a quaint town. Close proximity to puffin colony was a bonus!
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The area is rather remote but the ideal place to see puffins up close -- literally at your feet from the viewing platform that the town has built next to the puffin nesting area. The breakfast and dinner at the hotel were very tasty!

Excellent place for star gazing. The hotel offers everything one needs after a long trip. Breakfast options were great.

We arrived late, about 9:45 pm, and they made sure to wait for us, got us taken care of quickly and showed us to our room. The included breakfast was a decent variety and got us going in the morning. It was a short stay but enjoyable and we would definitely stay there again.

Really loved the buffet dinner we had. It’s the best meal we have had during our entire stay (15 days) at Iceland. This country style hotel is a gem. We enjoyed our stay tremendously.

Alfheimer is a gem on the east coast. We decided to stay another night. The staff is very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Accommodations were perfect with a comfortable bed and great tasting food. The locally brewed beer is delicious as well. All around a wonderful experience. Should we ever come back to Iceland we will be back here.
