We stayed here for a night on our way round Route 1. Simply put, this place is where guesthouse meets hotel, and it's a wonderful combination. The staff have the personal touch and the place feels homely, yet the rooms and dining area feel like a much bigger hotel chain, with simple tasteful decor. The free wifi worked perfectly, so...

We spent one night here in March. They might call it a guethouse, but this felt like a hotel to me. The room was warm and clean. The beds were very soft, and the bathroom clean. The guesthouse had WiFi, though the signal was a bit weak in our room. The view from the rooms is excellent. The restaurant was... More

We stayed at Guesthouse Vellir in March 2013. It is very close to Dyrholaey, but be advised that it is about a 10-minute drive to the road to Reynisdrangar, and another 10 minutes to the actual town of Vik. There was some pretty significant wind when we drove in, and lots of snow blowing around. You do have to drive... More

I saw that their set dinner menu was 5900kr. If you have no food, you'll have no choice but to pay up. I would not stay in this guesthouse again. There was no kettle nor cups nor tv. Pathetic compared to other guesthouses we have stayed in the region. The bathroom was a wet mess after a shower because of... More

We were happy to find Vellir Guesthouse to stop at on our way around the Golden Circle. The hostess was very kind and helpful as we arrive very late. The 3 bedroom was very modern an clean. Breakfast was fresh with a good selection of food. We were here for one night in January but I can imagine the landscape... More

Our first day on the Full Golden Circle tour. Touris booked Guesthouse Vellir for us and we were quite pleased with their choice. Our room had 3 single beds and a private bathroom. Very clean with a beautiful view. We arrived as the dining room was closing but were still able to get a much needed cup of hot tea... More

upon arrival, nothing was clear as to where to go to check in. the owner was nice, helped us calling a couple of places to book glacier walks. she also recommended places to go in the area. the room was a bit small, and there was no soap for the shower. the shower did not have edges, so the bathroom...

Nice place with free breakfast. Breakfast was good and Dinner was about 59,000ISK extra. We passed on that though. Nothing else to eat around the area... so be aware. We bought some noodle cups and the owner was nice enough to lend us the kettle. Tried to check in early around noon but no one was around. We were the... More

We were not sure what to expect when we arrived at Guesthouse Vellir, as the buldings seemed small and old (those were the farm buldings!). Our host came right out of her house to welcome us and we were very surprised to see how spacious and modern the place was. The room (like in a lot of other guesthouses) has... More
