    Staff was very friendly. The hotel is just outside of town, you come to it before you enter the town. Breakfast was good.

Just recently renovated, the Milk Factory guesthouse used to be a dairy for Höfn and the surroundings. The building has also hosted many art exhibitions in the past years and hopefully we can still work with young artists from the area.
There are many places in the neighbourhood that are for sure some of Icelands Gems. For example Skaftafell ( the national park ), the glacier lagoon, Stafafellsfjöll and Lónsöræfi ( mountains ) with landscape displays a wide range of colors and hiking trails. Hoffell and Heinaberg close by are also part of the Vatnajokull national park.
