Our stay at the Hellisholar Cottages was short but wonderful. The area around the cottages was so peaceful and a wonderful way to start our Icelanic adventure. The cottages were located a short distance to the famous Seljalandafoss and Skogafoss, which made for the perfect late night adventure to see the waterfalls during the midnight sun when there was hardly anyone there. And just down from Seljalandafoss was the waterfall Nauthusagil, and fun adventurous hike through a narrow canyon that leads to a large open top cave with the waterfall. Check in/out process was smooth with great communication from the property. Great place to get awy from the crowds and enjoy some peace and quite.

Quiet, peaceful area, cozy cabin / cottage

My wife Sheri and I, traveled on vacation together in Sept. from Miami, FL. to Iceland to take a break away from the heat and humidity in Miami to explore Iceland country during Autumn/Winter season. We enjoyed our short stay at the Hellisholar Cottages. My wife really enjoyed the cold weather. We got Free parking included in our stay, Free wifi, hot and cold water, clean room, in a very quiet and peaceful area too.

I didn’t expect much staying in our rustic cabin the countryside. But for what they charge – the cabin really was not in great shape. There was broken furniture, the kitchenette barely had any silverware. Views are amazing, Location is great, the people are nice. But at least a nice well maintained cabin would be nice.

Stayed here a few years ago and loved it. This time there we were placed in a cottage on the end no views surrounded by trees, there were multiple teenagers staying on site who were loud playing music and consrantly knocking on others doors. Room was old and dated, shower ran out of water very quickly so you then had to wait an hour for it to fill up, they provided coffee cups but no spoons or anything to use. Very very basic cottage wouldnt stay again you can get much more for your money staying elsewhere

Lovely cottage in a rural area, sheep in front of house. Kitchen is exaggerated, two hot plates with a pot and pan. Utensils very old, a microwave would help. Plates, glasses and cups are fine, so you have to work around when you really want to cook. There is no amenities, no coffee, tea or shower gel in the cottage. Fridge is very old, freezer door broken. The water heater lights up the room at night, had to pull the plug. Otherwise comfy bed, it was ok. We enjoyed ourselves nevertheless.

We received an email with our door code, but it didn’t work. We went to the reception and got a physical key, but they implied that is what we needed all along. So that was a bit confusing since we received a door code in the email.

There was no soap or even a hand towel in the bathroom. Which was pretty inconvenient, that seems like those would be essential items to have. And the dish soap was pretty much water, it’s like it was pretty much empty so someone just filled it from the tap to make it look full again.

It was just fine, but I would not stay here again.

We stayed in a studio cottage for one night. The cottage itself was well-kept but felt like lodging you would have at camp. The only option for ventilation was to open the door, and the beds/pillows were of low quality (but still clean). Furthermore, the bathroom is very small with the water heater suspended above the toilet. Showers had to be short, and it was hard to not spill water into the rest of the bathroom. Also, the wi-fi was not functional in our unit. Again, the lodging was well-kept, safe, and in a beautiful area, so I think our dissatisfaction with it comes down to personal preferences. The campsite looked really nice for anyone travelling in campers or spending the night in tents!

It was fun to be really out in the countryside. The cabin, while compact, accommodated four adults and a child pretty well.

Great Stay!

What an amazing experience we had. Couple of things to note that could ruin your stay if you're not aware. Heating is good but in cold months it could take an hour or so to properly heat up. You do have to strip the bed sheets or get charged extra, we knew about this and it really didn't take much time. The last thing is the bathroom situation. The bathroom is a shower, toilet and sink very close together. There is not enough hot water to shower more than 1 person, even 1 person needs to be quick or the water will run out and it takes about an hour to get warm again. There are other communal showers at the camping area, again not a bit issue if you're prepared. What could be bad is that there is no block for the water in the bathroom. We had the smaller two bed cottage so after the shower the water all over the bathroom and leaked under the door, and got all over the room. With the sweepers we cleaned everything up. Had we showered at night or stayed an extra day this could've been uncomfortable. Suggestion is to put a towel down under the door to try and keep the water in or shower at the camp showers. If you're staying one night it's not a big deal just shower in the morning. Highly recommend this for the price/area especially for Northern Light seekers. If you're on a good night you can see them clearly from here.

Super cute little cabin in the fields!

Difficult to find, way out in the middle of a field to nowhere, but perfect views of the landscaped white mountains, golf course, green fields. The cottage had not been stayed in for a little bit, so it took a good 3-4 hours to warm up with the radiotors, and we ended up sitting in our car for warmth until it did. It's a very cute cabin with everything you need, we definitely enjoyed it. The large buffet breakfast in the morning made the stay even more enjoyable. The cutest little place!

The cottages were very nice looking. But the bathroom was not clean. I also did not realize you have to \"clean\" your own room (or you will be charged 50 Euros). The welcome binder states you have to remove all sheets and sweep up, which is fine if you are not paying a lot. However this hotel was about $250 for one night (that is a lot for us and I would expect this for a $100 per night place). The heater did not work in the bedroom, but luckily the one in the main area worked and it was summer). Also, they only provide a body towel. If you like wash cloths or bath mats or hand towels, make sure to bring your own. The shower was very dirty, so no one used it. We were just there for one night. It would be nice if they have a pull down blind for the main door. The glass is frosted, however if you are sleeping in that room then you can see the sun all night long (went during summer). The area is beautiful and this cottage has great potential! Just make sure you have your expectations set that you are not going to have a clean bathroom. The food at the restaurant was good (dinner). We had the hamburgers and they were delicious. They were about $22 per hamburger, but that is expected in Iceland.

Pros:
- location
- has activities on site (for additional fees) in case you are traveling with family and need to entertain kids

Cons:
- you have to clean your cottage (sweep and mop floor, remove pillow cases and duvet covers and leave on floor) or they will charge you €50 extra for doing that little bit of housekeeping. I don’t understand why it would inconvenience them so much to do that themselves if we are paying for room.
- on the welcome book, it says to remove bed sheets and leave on floor but our beds were never even made with bed sheets just had a dirty mattress cover. I told the person at check out and he said that was fine which makes me wonder if they will just leave the mattress covers for the next guests without washing them.
- one bath towel (no head towel and no bath mat) for entire stay
- no shampoo or body wash ( I don’t agree with the little bottles because that is a waste but so many places that are cheaper than this hotel have the shampoo dispensers set up against the shower wall - I think that are being cheap by not providing this).

I can live with little and don’t really care for fancy amenities but what really got me was the “clean” the room or you get charged €50. It took us less than a minute to remove the pillow cases and duvet covers so no big deal but since we are paying, I don’t see why they couldn’t spend the extra minute doing that themselves.

Cozy Cottage.

We are a group of 5 adults who stayed in a 2-bedroom cottage for 1 night. The cottage was cozy, clean and tidy with basic amenities. There is also a kitchenette (kettle, hot plates, microwave, toaster, and bar fridge), but the hot plates in our unit were weak, where you could not even fry an egg for breakfast. The shower stall is super small, so keep this in mind if you prefer space while you lather. No TV but wifi signal was strong.
The cottage is approx. 20-25 minutes from the closest town Hvolsvollur, and you will have to trust your GPS when you drive to the property because it does look like its in the middle of nowhere. However the compound includes a campground for RVs, cottages, a restaurant, and a golf course.
Also, similar to camp cabins, you are expected to strip the beds on the day of departure, which was unexpected as we thought it offered hotel services, and not DIY, since we booked this through Expedia.
Overall the cottage was sufficient for our 1 night stay and we would visit again when we are in Iceland.

Not a great experience, because they promo something and give you less , then they say you are rights but they still defend that is the way things work ,not given you any compensation for they error.

Four of us stayed for one night. The cabin was clean, cozy and warm. There were two bedrooms plus two beds in the main room, so you could get a number of people in if you wanted to. Bathroom with plenty of hot water and kitchenette. We had 4 and it was the perfect size. You have to make and strip your own beds, empty your own trash and leave the cabin broom clean. Not a problem but I mention it because, again, rustic. We ate at the restaurant because we were tired and it's kind of out in the country. The food was okay, filling but nothing special.

We later asked for more towels, bigger cups, a broom stick etc and received all those items within minutes as well. Everyone was so friendly.

When we first got to the front desk it was dark, apparently the lights went out and it was a little chaotic. Waited a few minutes for a guy to help me check in. Turns out they leave your keys and receipt containing some CC info in a box outside. Would be nice if they told us this ahead of time. Went to the cottage and the restroom flush wasn't working correctly had to go to the front and ask the guy to come help. He came and somehow fixed it. Throughout the night we found blood stains and yellow stains on our bed and pillows. There was also mold on some blankets.

Before you leave you must clean the place wash the dishes sweep the floors and place all blankets and linens by the door. Basically doing your own housekeeping or they will charge you additional 50 euros to your card. Probably won't ever stay here again or recommend this to anyone.

The cottage was very pleasant. We liked how quiet and secluded it was. It's easy to get around from the cottage. The only complaint was that we were not made aware that the shower is actually outside of the cottage. It was right outside the front door, in what we thought was, a storage closet. For winter in Iceland, it was definitely not ideal. None of us used it due to the fact that it was freezing outside. We also had to make our own beds once we arrived and take the bedding down before we left. Not a big deal, but still a nuisance since we were tired once we arrived. Otherwise, the cottage was fine!

Quiet cabin

Decent place to stay if you're in the area. Nothing special, though it was quiet and clean. All you need if you're coming in late after a hike and hitting the road early.

The cabin was perfect for our needs. Small and cozy but the tiny kitchenette was great to cook a quick dinner. Remote feel but still close to a city and good roads to drive there

Nice cottages that were a small but rough around t

Limited hot water which was annoying. Beds weren't super comfortable and were quite small. Had missing curtains in places. Otherwise was nice. Good wifi, good size, very clean.

This little cabin made of logs was small, but comfortable and moderately well equipped with a small kitchen.The linens appeared to be clean and fresh. However, it was difficult to find a switch to turn off the intense porch light when ready to sleep! WiFi worked fine. We were too late to try the restaurant (more like a large cafeteria) or hot tub/pool.The shower is small, but functional, with adequate hot water despite the tiny tank. If you come from the South East on the Ring Road, be aware that Rt. 250 to Hlidarendi is a little rough (corrugated) by my standards and may be very rough by yours; but it is not an 'F' road. If you want a more comfortable ride, go to Hvolsvollur and take Rt. 261 to Hellisholar. Use SadCars for rentals. It's dark, so look up later at night for Auroras.
