The guesthouse is perfectly located by Seljalandsfoss and only about half an hour from Skógafoss — both were on our must-see list. The house is modern, clean, well-equipped, and practically new. Host communication was excellent. The mountain view is epic, and it’s wonderfully quiet — exactly what we needed. I’d definitely go back and stay longer.

Beautiful property in what feels like the middle of nowhere, while still being close to nearby attractions. The room was perfect and clean with the most amazing views. It made me sad to have to close the shades at night. I wish we could have stayed longer than 2 nights, but we had to move on a few hours down the road. The kitchenette was perfect for our needs. I would recommend to anyone!

This was such a cool little cottage! Just far enough away from the city but still close enough to restaurants and anything you might need. Beautiful waterfalls and other sites are just a short drive away! Kitchen had everything you might need for a few days and the beds in the bedroom were very comfy. The bed in the living room area was pretty hard but not unbearable. The shower water got warm immediately and water pressure was great. Highly recommend if you want to stay out of the city for a couple nights!!

Room was clean. Area was fairly remote, but on someone's farm, which was fine with us. I think the weather hindered our stay. It was rainy cold and extremely windy, so we couldn't enjoy the outdoors which was why we wanted to stay there. The wind blew all night long, you could hear it in the main space but was very quiet in the bedroom. The weather wasn't the fault of the location. So all in all we were happy, warm, and safe.

Beds were comfortable. Pull out sofa was ok. Everything worked.
Our sm 1 BR was well appointed. We stayed 2nts w/no issues.

fyi: Hot water is not geothermal so there is a limit to the hot water usage.

Comfortable, scenic, remote, limited hot water.

Very clean and comfortable accommodations, but quite small cabins. Hot water is limited, enough for one shower, need to wait 2 to 3 hours for another shower. No breakfast served and nearest food is about 10 miles away. Long gravel road to arrive, so remote off the main road in an already very remote area.

Very clean and comfortable

We had a very nice stay at the Bru Guesthouse. The location is close to a lot of attraction but feels secluded, with a nice outdoor space and even a grill. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, with good bedding.

The only issue was the check-in process.
We spent a good 30 minutes after we arrived sitting in our car and trying to figure out how to access our place, because none of us received an email that should have provided the cabin number and door code (there were 2 separate reservations). We had to look up our reservations through hotels.com and send a message (and the response is it can take a couple days to respond). Eventually the owner waved us over to his house to give us the info, and said his emails are blocked. I can only imagine how confusing this must be if you arrive at night and in the dark.

I think this property was great. The location fit our travel plans perfect.
My only complaint is the door lock was the worst. So, as we are freezing trying to get in...the dead bolt will not work. 15 minutes later we get it open. As we get in, we find that your suppose to hold the handle up then turn the dead bolt. But...when we run to the waterfall we can not hold the handle up and lock the door. 15 minutes later it just somehow works. Please change locks and door handles. Otherwise...i'd give this place an excellent.

Such a unique living experience. Living in an own personal hut near the mountains is such a great way to be in the nature. Private parking available. There is limited hot water in the room but this is a given when living more off the grid.

This was exactly what I was looking for quiet, cozy, and isolated. Stepping outside the cottages to see the northern lights was a dream come true. For me, it’s a five-star experience, and I’d happily stay here again on my next trip to Iceland.

For those who need to know: the hot water is sufficient for standard showers, but if you tend to linger, you might want to keep that in mind. Otherwise, it’s an absolutely wonderful place.\"

This was a serene place to stay. 15 minutes from town but a waterfall view.
Communication was excellent. Can’t wait to return.

The stay was really good, the cottage is very comfortable and has space even being a tiny house like is very spacious . The only problem is that there’s no hot water, you can have maybe 10-15 mins of hot water in a day! In a freezing snowy day it is not a good situation.

Stayed here with our toddler during our winter Iceland road trip. Check in was super easy and the cabin had all the essentials we needed! Loved the feel of the cabin and would be the perfect place to view the aurora if it’s visible.

Great property! Very clean. Upon entering the guesthouse was very warm which was nice since Iceland is very cold in Jan. We were able to see the Northern Lights so clearly here since there’s very little light pollution. Area was very quiet. Would definitely stay here again.
