Top East Fjords Hotel Reviews

Hotel 1001 Nott

10/10 Excellent

"Such a amazing place to stay and the staffs"

Guesthouse Gerði

8/10 Good

"Rooms were clean and the views were spectacular. Very friendly staff and the restaurant on premises was terrific. Only thing I have to add was that we were in the main house on first floor. The doors are heavy and make a lot of noise on closing so if you are going to sleep early( which most people do), people that arrive late and drag suitcases and slam doors (in other words, they are not cognizant that people are asleep), you can hear everything. Other than that, it was great."

Blábjörg Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Got a 3 bedroom suite that's conveniently located on the ground floor and close to the dining area. Parking was available right outside the suite. We got there at 8:30pm & the staff was very helpful. Got us settled for dinner before the kitchen closed and then checked us in. Also showed us where to conveniently park our car. View behind the property was very nice as well."
