Comfortable standard Icelandic hotel. Dinner restaurant OK. Breakfast needs some work. Rooms don't all have heater inside but there is central heating. If you are not too sensitive to the cold works fine but if you are someone who gets cold easily this may be an issue for you.

Great service by the restaurant staff. Was hungry at 4pm when my wife and I reached this hotel so we ordered a lamb burger as snack before dinner at 7pm. She showed good initiative by asking whether we would like to be served in 2 portions. Lamb burger was awesome and fries were good!

Simple country hotel without many facilities. Looks a bit old and rundown. The location is in middle of nowhere and is perfect for northern light hunting. We manage to see northern lights right after dinner from inside the hotel room.

We would stay at Smyrlabjorg again. The staff are wonderful and the food very good. A great family run hotel with fine hospitality.

The rooms are very tidy and big enough. Wlan is working perfectly. The breakfast is kinda meh. The orange juice for example tasted like water. The dining hall looks like a cheap diner.

Very nice hotel. The dinner is very good. Everything, more or less, is locally produced.

For being the only game in town, the hotel was very well priced and well maintained. The rooms were clean and the food options were good. The Skyr pie in the restaurant was excellent as was the ice cream. Also a big plus and kind of cool was the place had its own beer.

Good and one of the few large hotels for this area.
This was my second time staying here. Rooms are large and nice, very clean and staff made my bed twice (after a nap I took). The one odd thing is that the rooms don't have any heaters or AC, I assume they use floor heating. This does not allow you to dry clothing (I got soaked during the day and had very wet pants and coats to dry).
Dinner food is decent, and no good restaurants nearby (the very good Bookshelf restaurant is the closest). Breakfast buffet is very good, I enjoyed the smoked fish and the unlimited espresso machine. The buffet could use a little more fruit, though.
Very quick check-in, staff is friendly and very trusting, I was able to pick up my pre-arranged 7 room keys when I arrived, no awkward sign in procedure. Just grab the key and go to your room.response / report this review -

Nice location and good room but the common space of where the rooms should be a bit cleaner. The breakfast is really good but all together (room+breakfast) it is a bit expensive. We found the same service in other locations in Iceland at lower prices.

A great spot to stay. Our room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great! Coffee and tea available at all times to hotel guests. Staff were very friendly. Our room didn't connect to the WiFi but they have a few lounge areas where it worked great. Would definitely stay here again:)
