The bread!!!Natural hot tubs and pools are a perfect way to relax... More

We stayed at Heydalur in May 2013. The property is off the beaten path. The staff were very accommodating and we ate dinner in the restaurant. Excellent food. The rooms were comfortable and nice.

We went to Heydalur for ptarmigan hunting, the weather was very bad on the way from Reykjavik but we arrived after 5 hours. The rooms are very nice, the service good, breakfast and dinner well above what you could expect. All in all, great place and I will go there again and in summer time.

We stayed there in late August for two nights in a guesthouse. The guesthouse is very comfortable and clean. The area is very quiet and the landscape is great. We did a two hour horse riding trip, which was nice as well. The horses are calm and quite easy to handle. We had lunch and dinner which was well prepared... More

We were staying on the campsite, so I can't comment on the guesthouse, but we went to the restaurant twice in two days, ate a lot and were never disappointed. Fish or meat, starter or main course - everything tasted wonderful and did really taste special. Usually my wife lets me have a bite of her dinner to taste -... More

We only stayed 1 night, but Heydalur Guesthouse is a wonderful place. The food is amongst the best we've had in Iceland, especially the lamb fillets and the almond cake, all cooked so well by Stella in the kitchen. The restaurant is very appealing with a warm decor and temperature. Everyone is so friendly that you almost feel part of... More
