The hotel is brand new and beautifully decorated. It is located in a central area with low tourism activity, which is suitable for an extended stay. We stayed a week. We wanted solitude with access to hikes, mountains, highlands, waterfalls and glaciers, and we got it. The breakfast was also delicious. The staff is very kind and accommodating. (We love your hospitality, Judith! And it was a pleasure to briefly meet the owner too!)
Located a 1-hour drive from Reykjavik, this hotel is located 820 feet from Route 1 near Borgarfjördur Bay. It offers a free Wi-Fi and a free private parking.

We were in a comfortable clean cabin. The staff were lovely helpful and accommodating. Our first room was small and like a dorm room and very expensive. However when I talked to them they moved us. Turned me from unhappy to happy
We were a little late for breakfast and they still fed us which they didn’t have to. The people were truly hospitable.
This hotel offers relaxing outdoor hot tubs, an 18-hole golf course and activities such as whale watching and snowmobile safaris. Reykjavik and Snæfellsnes National Park are a 1-hour drive away.

Clean and comfortable, breakfast was excellent. We had to leave early that morning but the night guard did a terrific job taking good care of us.

Small, cosy, almost brand new and well
Equipped. Nice location as well and attached to owners home.
Busy little town, with various amenities. Has several museums in the area. A coastal path runs round the west side of the town giving good views of the area. There a number of food outlets along with a Netto supermarket. For refuelling purposes, there a three separate garages for fuel, next to route 1.

The local pool was lovely - we went in the evening, so it was dark (I really like this).
There was a local cafe/bar that served some great value meals - the lamb chops were sublime.
There is a lovely friendly vibe in Borganes, and I would highly recommend putting it on your trip.

It is a bit run down but it is quiet and the beds are comfortable. Like most of Iceland in our experience, the pillows could be better. Hot pot, coffee, tea, cream and sugar are provided, which was nice. There is free parking, however I can imagine at times it may be hard to find a spot as the lot supports the restaurant as well. We had dinner at the restaurant, food was good and the portion was large.
In a nutshell, this is a decent budget accommodation, with a restaurant on site which makes it convenient. If you plan to eat at the restaurant, make a reservation before 5pm. They were able to squeezed us in without one but there were many who were not as lucky.

Borgarnes is underrated as it doesn't have any bucket-list sights. It's a mid-size small town by Iceland standards, but it's got a lot to recommend it - it's a very typical Icelandic place, and one with a variety of landscapes and bay views.
The Settlement Museum is overpriced (as most Icelandic museums are), but even without a visit there, Borgarnes is a good place for walking. It also has some decent to excellent eateries (the Bara bar and restaurant in the heart of the town is outstanding, and even the N1 station cooks up some of Iceland's best meat soup.)

Beautiful views. Lots to do and see.
Beautiful views. Lots to do and see. An area with a lot of history. A good for both people who like to do independent activities and people who prefer guided tours. It is the place of viking settlements and the sagas. There is a Settlement museum to learn about it. Waterfalls and a la a tube cave you can take a tour of.

We had a few hours here on the way to the Basalt Hotel.
We had a few hours here on the way to the Basalt Hotel. Car parking was free. There was a pathed route to walk around the coast. We had coffee and lunch at a wonderful place called Blómasetríð - Kaffi Kyrrð. We sat outside in a beautiful courtyard/garden. The food was excellent and the staff were polite and kind.
The room and the breakfast were very good. We enjoyed the region and its access to the wonderful Snæfellsness Peninsula. We had great meals at the hotel and also at the nearby restaurant, Englendingavík, in Borgarnes. The hotel staff were very good. We didn't use the spa but saw several other guests enjoying those facilities. Our stay in Borgarnes on the last two nights of our visit to Iceland gave us an easy ride to Keflavik airport to fly home on our last day.
Very good value - we had a 22h layover in Iceland, and we were able to rent a car and whole trailer cottage for cheaper than staying at a hotel closer to airport. It was an easy drive with nice views. Great place to sleep before next days flight - we also drove a little more to look at views in the evening. Cozy and functional, with a view to mountain tops.
our hosts were friendly and warm, welcoming us to their home. Our accommodations were impeccable, they even prepared the hot tub for us when we arrived back late from a day trip. Breakfast delicious…authentically Icelandic, down to the home-caught smoked trout and homemade blueberry jam!
Cozy room. The room was quite warm through the night. There is a kettle and coffee/tea. Beds are comfortable enough. There is a restaurant downstairs and a small parking lot outside. Close to a few restaurants and a small cafe. Borgarnes is a very pretty and cute little town.
The location was perfect. The room and bathroom comfortable and clean. Breakfast was alright, could have been better. Parking outside the hotel was alright, and two very nice restaurants with a walking distance. We didn't try the restaurant at the hotel.
Very nicely decorated,spacious,clean and well organized kitchen.
Nice views from the veranda,friendly staff.We were two couples and shared the upper floor apartment.The hotel is one kilometer before the town of Borgarnes,overlooking it.Highly recomended.
Solid hotel for a suitable stay in Borgarnes area. We got well assisted by Natacha and when I imagined that I finally found a true sympathetic Icelander, she turned out to be Slovenian (another beautiful country). The breakfast was also very good.
Mila was a delightful and friendly host. The view was ridiculously good and the place was spotless! Very much appreciated the morning coffee and bread to start the day. I would definitely choose this over a hotel on any return trip!
Very easy and flexible check-in and check-out. The cabin was clean and well equipped. The biggest advantage of this place is an opportunity to walk outside the farm and pet sheep or Icelandic horses.
Very helpfull staff. The hostelroom is located in a fancy hotel. Very beautiful interior. For that price... Best price-quality I booked in all Iceland. Good beds, nice food at the restaurant.
Modern, clean hotel with helpful staff. Good location in Borgarnes with easy parking. Great buffet breakfast. Spa/hot tub in the basement was very relaxing after our early flight and drive!
This lovely hotel was clean, quiet, beautiful situated. The hostess was so kind and warm. Breakfast was such a yummy spread of good options. The option to pre-reserve dinner was very nice.
Really friendly host in a beautiful location. Borgarnes is a great base to get out and discover this part of Iceland. The accommodation is a real home from home place to stay.
