Set within 41 km of Seljalandsfoss and 45 km of Thjofafoss in Hella, Loa's Nest features accommodation with seating area. Featuring a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The guest house also offers free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. The host and her family here was most hospitable people and gave us ample tips in Icelandic places to visit since we were doing a 10 days of ring road with our 9 year old .And they made sure we had a good stay at his comfortable place and got us free waffles and coffee even though it was not part of the stay.

Lækjaborgir Guesthouse is located in Kálfafell, 26 km east of Kirkjubæjarklaustur. Free WiFi is offered throughout the property and free private parking is available on site.

Lækjaborgir Guesthouse also includes a terrace with a seating area. This guesthouse is well equipped and very clean. It's in beautiful surroundings. But the best part is the owners, who are friendly and ready to help when you come across problems. One of our members has serious medical issues. They are so kind to come immediately to help us. I highly recommend this guesthouse.

Guesthouse Bitra B&B’s simple rooms have either private or shared bathroom facilities. They provide views of Mount Hekla or the surrounding countryside.

The guest house is equipped with a flat-screen TV. The kitchen comes with a dishwasher, an oven and a toaster and there is a private bathroom with a hair dryer and free toiletries. This guest house is non-smoking and soundproof. Great property, so new we could smell the fresh paint! Room was cozy and very well designed with a window seat looking out to the hills and the horses. Bright, spacious and comfortable common room and incredibly well equipped shared kitchen. Hopefully guests will take care of it all so that it stays so beautiful. Loved the location midway between Gulfoss Falls and Geysir, 5 minutes from both. Highly recommended.
