    We stayed at a wonderful private mini-house with amazing views and a fully equipped kitchen at Ormurinn Cottages. The host was super nice, even calling us when we forgot some food. The bed was comfortable and the place was clean and pleasant. The location was fantastic, with a beautiful view of the river and the city. There were also nearby amenities such as a bakery and gas station. a quiet and relaxing stay. The cottage had everything we needed, including a cute bedroom with tiny windows and even a barbecue for our use.

    The lake view is stunning, the kitchenette is well equipped, and the WiFi reception is excellent. The porch grill enhances the experience. The hosts are responsive and helpful. It's a great location just a short drive from the town center.

    We got great value for our money at the cozy cottage overlooking the lake. The location was perfect, close to town and within an hour's drive to Borgarfjörður Eystri for puffin viewing. The staff were efficient, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed.

    We had a lovely Christmas stay in a cute little cabin right on the fjord's edge. The location was perfect, offering breathtaking views of the fjord and mountains. The cabin itself was cozy and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen for cooking and a living room with a porch and BBQ. The staff were friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to assist us when our car had engine trouble. They even provided us with a bigger, warmer house to stay in when we had to extend our stay. We truly appreciated their warm hospitality.

    That the cabin could have been cleaner, especially the dishes which we had to clean ourselves. The utilities in the cabin were quite old and could use an upgrade, particularly the skillets, cutlery, and kettle.

    We got great value for our money at the cottages. The room was comfortable, spacious, and well-designed. The location by the lake was beautiful and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay.

    Menu for breakfast could be improved with more variety of dishes.

    The location of the cabin was absolutely fantastic. Situated right by the lake, the views were breathtaking. It was also nice to have the town nearby, making it convenient for any necessities. The cabin itself was clean and well-kept, providing a cozy atmosphere. The kitchenette was well-equipped with basic utensils, allowing us to prepare meals. the staff at the reception were friendly and helpful.

    The top bedroom had limited headroom, which could be a bit uncomfortable for taller individuals. There was also a limited choice of restaurants in the town, with a limited menu.

    Just spent 8 amazing days at Ormurinn Cottages and it was the best place we've been during our trip to Iceland. The location in front of the lake was simply beautiful, and the cottage itself was cozy, warm, and well equipped. The photos didn't do justice to how spacious it actually was, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The kitchen facilities were excellent and the cottage was spotless. Plus, the owner was incredibly kind and even upgraded us to a bigger house to accommodate our group of 5. Will definitely recommend and come back again next time I'm in Iceland!

    Totally recommend this hotel.

    The location of the cottage was perfect, with stunning views and a convenient setting. The amenities provided, such as WiFi and a smart TV with Netflix, were a great addition. having a well-equipped kitchen with a stove, fridge, freezer, coffee pot, and toaster was very convenient for our short stay.

    There were a few downsides to our experience. the couch was uncomfortable due to a lack of pillows and being hard.

    Amazing view of the lake and surrounding area. . Well-equipped kitchenette that allowed us to cook our own meals. Excellent wifi reception for staying connected.

    Limited TV channels, with only one unknown language channel available. . Some noise from traffic during the daytime.

    Great location with a nice view of the river and city. Nearby bakery and gas station. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Well-designed house with everything you'll need, including a cute bedroom with small windows. Super friendly and efficient manager. Loved the A-frame concept. Proximity to the lake and peaceful setting. Clean and cozy cabin with comfy beds. Perfect for a family with a child. Awesome lake view, well-equipped kitchenette, and great wifi. Porch grill added to the amazing experience. Very responsive hosts. Northern lights visible. Short drive to town center.

    Our stay at Ormurinn Cottages was exceptional. The location, right beside the lake, was perfect and provided beautiful views. The cottage we stayed in was spacious and comfortable with every corner of the house being perfectly utilized. Waking up to the view of the lake was a wonderful experience. Despite a minor inconvenience with the kitchen facilities, our overall experience was fantastic. I would highly recommend this accommodation.

    We had initially reserved 3 cottages, but the host graciously upgraded us to a beautiful and spacious house. The staff went above and beyond to assist us with a car issue, patiently waiting for our late arrival and even helping us communicate with the car repair staff. They provided us with another cozy house when we had to stay an extra night. The beds were comfortable, the facilities modern and clean, and the location offered a lovely view of the river and city. We really appreciated the warm help and highly recommend this place to all visitors!
