Very basic amenities. Our rooms looked like a hostel. They have two separate buildings and our rooms were not in main building where the restaurant and lobby is.
Summer season is peak and it’s pricey for this kind of basic rooms.

This hotel is conveniently located and very clean with convenient parking and friendly staff. We stayed in the #4 building, and our request for a ground floor room was accommodated. The breakfast is on the second floor of the hotel and there is no lift. Normally takeaway breakfast has an additional fee, but given that one person in our party cannot walk up stairs they allowed us to take away breakfast for no additional fee. The breakfast food included hot options like eggs and bacon as well as cold cuts, cheese, veggies, fruit, and breads. The upstairs breakfast room is very nice. The restaurant is a nice looking space as well, and very busy at dinner time. The takeaway pizza we had was very good. The price was similar to other pizzas in Iceland. The lobby has a cozy vibe and I enjoyed spending a little time there. There is a neighborhood cat who likes to visit the lobby, but if you are allergic they will put her outside. She was very calm and didn't seem to want to bother people, she just likes the atmosphere of the lobby I think.

The restaurant is excellent and the check in staff are first class. Beautiful views and in a convenient part of town.

Two unfortunate things: First, there is no elevator to help get luggage up to rooms so guests need to be prepared for that. Second, my bed was way too soft and sagged in the middle leading too a mediocre night's sleep and a sore back. Please fix!

Generally, it was a good stay. However, I was disappointed with the way a problem with my dinner was managed. Although the cod and mashed potatoes well well prepared, my asparagus was burnt. I drew this to the attention of the waitress and she said she would speak to the chef. When leaving, nothing was said. I experienced my treatment as, just a tourist, he won't be back. Being charged for a full meal when part was inedible seems to be poor customer service.

Our stay was really great. It became possible, because of amazing people here. We weren’t aware that there is no public transportation or even taxi around. We don’t drive… Our dream trip was about to end without beginning… But kind big heart Alexandra helped us and drove us to Crystal ice cave meeting point and back! Overall, when our flight was canceled and we were about to cry, Ms Veronica offered to drive us to Reykjavik (which is six-seven hours to drive from here!)… I don’t have a words to fully thank those people! I can’t imagine what could we do without them?!
Hotel Hofn is small, clean, beautiful with delicious food in their restaurant. I want everyone knows how good it is! I will write everywhere my story. I hope and wish prosperity and happiness for people who have a heart!

We booked a “standard room” at Hotel Höfn through Expedia. Upon arrival — on a completely snowy day — we discovered that our room was not in the main building but across the street, meaning we had to go outside in freezing weather every time we wanted to access the breakfast area or other common spaces. This important detail was not clearly mentioned anywhere in the room description.

The photos on Expedia’s listing also did not match the room we received — especially the bathroom, which was completely different. When we asked the hotel if we could move to a room in the main building, they told us everything was fully booked.

We contacted Expedia expecting some help, but their response was simply that the hotel refused the refund and that there was “nothing more they could do.” It’s very disappointing that Expedia doesn’t take responsibility when listings are misleading.

We have used Expedia many times before, but this experience makes us question how much they actually verify the accuracy of the properties they advertise. Travelers deserve transparency — especially when conditions like this can make a stay so uncomfortable.

The hotel does not have a lift which makes it very difficult if you have big suitcases to carry up to your room. There was no offer to help as well so we have to carry up a flight of stairs all our things. Aside from that, the room bathroom was really really small where there is no divider between the shower and toilet except for a shower curtain. So when you finish showering the whole bathroom floor will be all wet. Needs improvement overall

At 309 USD per night we were anticipating a very nice experience. After all it was the most expensive hotel of the entire trip. So far it has been the worst. Sewer smell in the room, moldy smell in the bathroom. Small room with no closet and barely any space to put the luggage. No coffee maker, no fridge, you get a couple of powder coffee pouches. The looks of the common areas are nice, building from 1965 without elevator. But the looks of the bathroom is that of an abandoned hospital, the shower is bare concrete walls. Room 301 however offers nice views.
