This guesthouse was very nice. They have a wonderful restaurant with a free breakfast. Our little bungalow was great and clean and comfortable.

Sudarshana, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

A lot of potential but lacking when we were there

Room was very basic and a bit tired. The shower tray did not drain sufficiently quickly so there was a risk that it flooded. I reported it on leaving so hopefully it will be fixed for the next guests. We ate dinner at the restaurant one night and it was very good indeed. It was such a shock how bad the breakfast was. (I don't really understand how a lot of people said that it was great). It doesn't take much effort to put butter or other spreads in a bowl or dish but they were served straight from the packet or jar. Surprised that there were no eggs (not even boiled eggs which would have been simple to prepare). And a limit of just one type of cheese and meat.

Cozy cabin that was very clean and beautiful property, too bad it rained the entire time of our visit. Had supper at the restaurant and it was excellent, also enjoyed the fresh baked bread for breakfast.

Sheep and Serenity

The property backs up to a butte with adorable sheep grazing and 2 minutes from a famous canyon. It is peaceful and beautiful. The staff are extremely friendly and the breakfast was perfect and light. A very pleasant experience 10/10 recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

Hunkubakkar Guesthouse is an absolutely little place where you will find adorable cabins to stay in. They are located in a meadow with trees around it, a field of sheep nearby and the sound of a small river/creek. The staff are all so kind and polite. I stayed in a triple room, which had three twin beds, a small bathroom and a table with chairs. The shower is quite small and someone slightly larger than me would have a very difficult time entering it. That being said, the rest of the cabin was super nice. There are a few outlets (three that I recall) in the main room. Breakfast was nothing to write home about. There were cereals, milk, juice, coffee, some bread, yogurt and meat and cheese. Something a little more substantive would be a great addition. I had dinner at the restaurant and it was quite good. I chose the three course meal with asparagus soup, lamb and apple cake. All were delicious! Highly recommend this adorable cabin style stop!

Quiet cottage

The cabin was surrounded by fields of grazing sheep. Beautiful setting! The room was very comfortable and clean. Great breakfast.

Cozy cabins, very quiet, great dinner-lamb and arctic char from their farm.
Douglas, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

房間乾淨,有舒適的配置,一張書桌、衣櫃、茶几及兩張椅子。進房間的時候暖氣已經打開。旅館有自己的農場,餐廳食物好吃。 但是早餐偏簡單。 四周環境安靜。 距離兩公里有一個漂亮的峽谷。 旅館有舒適的交誼廳,有一本附近景點書可以參考。
Huiying, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed one night here and loved the vibe & feel of the cabins. Staff were friendly & courteous. To top it off, I got to witness the start of Iceland’s ‘réttir’, which was truly amazing. The breakfast, however, was continental and basic compared to other hotels I stayed at during my 17-day trip to Iceland.

Charming cabins but overpriced. There's better value elsewhere.

would stay here again

for a double bed and shared bathroom: smaller quarters but clean and bright. easy to find and beautiful location, with very friendly guesthouse staff. we didn't get to have dinner there, but the nearby kjarr is very pleasant, with nice waterfall views. for a continental breakfast at the guesthouse, the breakfast was quite good.

Great staff but room didn’t have any ventilation. Some mosquitoes around. But good cozy stay. Rooms are extremely small but great peaceful location.

We stayed in a triple. It was so cute and clean. Tiny bathroom. Slept well. Breakfast was lacking and not great but we loved our cabin! Great location after our glacier hike headed back towards Vik.
Regina, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location when touring the south of the country. We used it on the trip towards the Glacier Lagoon. It has a restaurant which is pretty convenient since there is no other for miles in that part of the road.
Alejandro, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The cabins we’re comfortable and located on an idyllic setting. The dinner was phenomenal (we had the lamb). It was the best meal on our trip! The breakfast was included and was cold choices but delicious. Would highly recommend!
Denise, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The cabin was really cute and clean, pretty new condition. the bathroom is tinny. The staff was super friendly and their restaurant was very good. The lamb was so tasty, it was from their home raised sheep. Enjoyed our stay!
Guoyu, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The entire property drips rustic charm. Cabins are spotless and comfortable, and the main breakfast area is very clean and comfortable. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We stayed 2 nights and used this property as a base for exploring this part of the country.

This property is a little way off the Ring road, but very quiet. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was nice. They do serve dinner there,however we did not eat at the guesthouse.
