"We had a great stay at Guesthouse Gerði in Mid-June. It was a great location to serve as our base for a few days as we explored the southeast coast if Iceland. We stayed in a five person family room in the older building and while the room was tighte, it worked perfectly for what we needed, comfortable beds to sleep in. The staff was great and we loved to stillness of the area."
"Located in the middle of nowhere basically, lovely apartment with a decent sized bathroom and kitchen. Nice amount of coffee provided which was highly appreciated"
"Wonderful hotel space, but has a kitchenet, more like an apartment as they call themselves. Grocery on the first floor. Plenty of street parking. Centrally located for shopping street and most sites. East walls to many location."
"This is one of the best places I’ve have ever stayed at. The cottage was beautiful and very well kept. The property was a great experience to be able to explore with a waterfall on the property. The owners truly care about their customers. They had games, waffles, and everything we needed to cook. I couldn’t recommend this place more."
"Staff was incredible, as is in every fosshotel we've ever stayed at. Great location to skaftafell and many other attractions near systrafoss. Stunning views from room. Great breakfast and dinner. I would highly recommend the arctic char and risotto. 100% staying here again"
"Breakfast buffet was awesome!
Staff very helpful when we needed ice, travel advice, etc.
Room was tiny but clean.
Glacier behind the hotel was a bonus!"
