Iceland was truly magical - the people so warm and kind. Our stay at Hotel Hofn was made extra special by the hotel owner and his family. We were warmly greeted, he fixed my broken suitcase, alerted us to the Northern Lights (!!) and gave us a tour of the lovely town! Dinners were excellent and the service fabulous. More

The rooms are decent sized, good layout and clean. No refrigerator, coffee/tea making facilities, though they were not important to us. The rates are reasonable too. The wifi was super! The best part about it is obviously the view! More

My evaluation goes not only to the hotel physically but to the people who work there. The hotel per si is wonderfully located by a glacier lagoon with impressive views (be sure to ask for a room with this view). Our room didn´t have a great view and maybe could have been a little bit bigger not to mention the... More

This is a nice clean and relatively spacious place to stay. The local lobster (langoustine) is very tasty in the restaurant. Can be a bit hard to identify as it only has a flag with its name on it. More

My only complaint about this hotel was finding it! We kept thinking it was a hospital and drove past it 4 times before seeing the little flag! After that though, we had a nice stay there. Like every other place we stayed (13 different hotels on our trip there) it was simple, but clean and comfortable with a great staff.... More

Northern light tour that the owner of Hotel Hofn had organized was just an amazing experience, not only from the viewing of the light itself but also such a dramatic way he made it happen for us by going out of his way...Just as we were ready to go to bed, having given up any hope after 2 days of...

My boyfriend and I stayed at Hotel Hofn on Jan.4, 2012. When we arrived, the receptionist already knew who we were and was very welcome. He told me that we were the only guests that night and we could sing, dance, do whatever we want in our rooms. We found ourselves very lucky. This is a large and very nice... More

I came to Höfn I see the northern lights. My flight was cancelled and it meant that everything had to be pushed back a day. This was no problem for Hotel Höfn. The staff were all friendly and unlike most hotels, they made an effort to make me feel at home. Even though there was cloud cover for my entire... More

Ensured to stay at quality hotels during the holiday and Hotel hofn met all the expectations I had in mind. Every phase of the stay at this property was smooth hassle free. Hotel Hofn is modern...

This hotel was, by a good margin, the most expensive hotel we stayed at in Iceland (about $150 USD)... and it really wasn't any nicer than any other place we stayed to be perfectly honest. We ended up staying here because in late October, the only other place that was still open in town was the Guest House (don't recall... More
