This hotel saved us during a bad snowstorm. It looks unassuming from outside, but the room was very comfortable and the food is excellent. They had the best lamb we had in Iceland! The breakfast was a good selection and also high quality. The staff was lovely and accommodating when we made a last minute reservation. We didn't have Northern Lights the night we were there, but this would be a great location for spotting them.

The place was very clean and very close to Seljalandsfoss - a great place to stay if you’re touring the south coast. Staff was also very helpful - I left my earbud on the bed and they kept it for me to pick it up on our way back to Reykjavik x

Only complaint is the drain was quite smelly when we got in. Would be great if the staff could air the toilet a bit before the next guest!

Nice hotel which is reasonably close to the airport. Shuttle service (one way) from the hotel to the airport is a bonus. Too bad there's no shuttle from the airport to the hotel. Not sure why.

Dinner at the restaurant was good, and is the only dining option available. We didn't see any restaurants within walking distance.

Our only complaint is that our room was very warm even with the window opened and the thermostat turned OFF. We couldn't understand why, since this is a first floor room. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

Loved this hotel! Was the best they provide complimentary breakfast and they have a coffee/tea machine we can use 24/7! I loved having endless lattes lol. The best thing was my husband is gluten free and one night we arrived back around 6:30pm and didn’t want to go out to eat. We bought food as we bounced hotels and guest houses hoping to cook. after dinner was served the lady let us use the kitchen to cook gluten free pasta! It was very nice of her to allow us to do that. The service here was 10/10 I would definitely stay here again! And the hotel views of the mountains are amazing!

Self check-in instructions were communicated ahead of time and the process was smooth and convenient. The room was clean, bright and airy. The mini fridge in the room was a nice convenience and the WiFi worked well. The view from our room was fabulous! We had a field of lupine and a small pond that hosted several bird species right outside our window. We could also see snow-capped volcanos and the Seljalandsfoss waterfall in the distance. The breakfast buffet was delicious and the staff was friendly and accommodating. The location is central to Seljalandsfoss (waterfall), Landeyjahofn (ferry dock to Vestmannaeyjar), and the town of Hvolsvollur (food, gas, grocery, shops and the Volcano and Earthquake Lava Center exhibit). Hotel Selja is a hidden gem and I highly recommend staying here!

Hotel Selja sits alone in a vast, flat landscape with stunning views. You'd not think much of it when driving up to it, but once inside, you're greeted by warm staff members and cozy, bright rooms. The rooms were very clean and nicely appointed.
We had a very yummy dinner there served on short notice and received with much gratitude. The breakfast buffet had everything we could want to start our day - it was delicious.
It's a perfect overnight location for catching the early morning ferry out to Heimaey Island. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Probably the most room we've had so far in Iceland. Bathroom was big.
Just one thing-- hopefully they keep up with the cleanliness of the sink and shower. There were some mold and rust around the grout of the shower and sink area.

This is a very small hotel and is set far back from the main road. It is great if you are looking for a very quiet, secluded Iceland experience. They have a small reception/eating area and offer dinner and a free breakfast. We really enjoyed the breakfast, but did not find items on the menu to suit dietary needs for dinner. The closest town is about 20 minutes away and has a grocery store and a couple of places to eat and shop. The surroundings of this hotel are beautiful. The rooms are standard hotel rooms in size and very modern. We wanted an area to play some games, but there was really nowhere outside of the hotel room itself. The hiking is great and it is near many natural attractions.

Great quiet location very close to Seljalandsfoss. The surroundings are beautiful with wildflowers and a few of Seljalandsfoss. Food options are limited but the hotel staff/owners make a fantastic dinner. We had the beef cheek and lamb and both were delicious. We were leaving early tomorrow morning, before breakfast time, so we requested early breakfast and the staff/owners made us a feast. That was so appreciated because we had been skipping breakfast from other hotels because we were leaving so early. Thank you for being such kind hosts!

Selja is amazing

Favorite place in Iceland. This is a gem of a hotel located on what looks like an old Hollywood set for a western. The staff / owner is awesome, and always around. The food was amazing, and even though it is a shockingly simple menu, everything on the menu is great. Arguably the best dinners I had in all of Iceland. Looking out the window was a picturesque image of nature with Seljalandsfoss cropped by the window frame. I had no idea what to expect when I booked it, but I am super happy I did. Took a long walk down the gravel road that leads to it and was completely at peace listening to the birds.

Breakfast was really lovely with a plentiful choice of cold buffet, cereals, yogurt, bread/toast and spreads. The hot buffet was had bacon beans and scrambled egg. To top it off there were waffles too. With maple syrup and bacon they were delicious.

Shelter From the Wind

This hotel is a metal structure with nothing much around it except rock... and WIND! The hotel itself has a common room in front and a single long hallway with rooms to either side. Our room was quite comfortable, but somewhat Spartan. The breakfast was good.

A very well-maintained and cosy hotel - staff are extremely friendly.

Surrounded by nature and views of Seljalandsfoss.

Breakfast buffet was delicious as well.

We had a great stay at this property! We arrived after the checkin time but staff made it very easy to still checkin. Paperwork and key were left in a safe location for us to access. If you are like us and decide not to eat dinner there, know that you’ll need to eat before gettin into your room. Along with no smoking or vaping, you are also told not to eat in your room.

Staff at Hotel Selja is excellent! Very friendly, service oriented and easy to be around. The hotel, while surrounded by great vistas, is simple and functional. Breakfast buffet is good as are the dinner menu options - prepared with pleasure by one of the smiling staff members.

Great starting point for a day on the south, with Seljalandsfoss right there, letting you get there before the crowds. It's situated far back from the roads, basically in the middle of a big field, which let us see the northern lights without any light pollution.

Staff were very friendly, room was clean and it just had a nice overall feel to it. Included breakfast was great and had waffles, which was a nice touch. Pretty sure the bread was freshly baked there as well.

We were given a room with an accessible bathroom that was very uncomfortable; the shower was the entire bathroom, no door or curtain and we had to squeegee after showering to try to dry the floor. There were flies in our room when we arrived and the bathroom hadn't been completely cleaned.

The front desk hours hotels.com lists are deceiving, there is only a person there for a couple hours in the morning and evening. So no one was there when we checked in to address our concerns.

They do have a restaurant but you need to order what you want ahead of time, another detail not included on hotels.com.

The best part of our stay was the beautiful view of the mountains.

I loved this little hotel. Firstly please note that it is about 2km down a rough track, it is not on a main road. And also note that reception is not always manned. But the hotel is surrounded by meadows, birds, and has wonderful views. We found the rooms to be exceptionally clean, warm, and great attention to detail meant that we had everything we needed. Coffee machine, dining space, and a mini bar were available 24/7 in the public area, meaning that we had everything we needed after a long drive. Lovely wee place.

This hotel is literally in the middle of nowhere down a bumpy, mile-long dirt road. When we arrived there was absolutely no one onsite, with our keys left out on the desk to self-checkin. The room itself was very clean and newly decorated with IKEA furnishings. Very serviceable but nothing special. The exterior of the hotel looks a bit like a barn or warehouse. There are almost no dining options anywhere nearby. When we did interact with any staff, they were friendly.
