Our room was clean and large. Kitchen/dining area was large with all the essentials. The view from the house was great also. My family really enjoyed the stay.

10/10 Excellent

Great place with spacious rooms. Floor in the main lobby is also heated. Showers/bathrooms are clean with good water pressure. Check out time is a bit early which is the only downside (10am)

Gavin, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Room was very small, but that seems the norm in private guesthouses in Iceland. Close to roadway. Easy to find..great kitchen. I loved that there was milk for coffee!

6/10 Okay

No lights for to read, dusty, old matress, everything a little bit dirty, fridge full with food not used any more and full of ice. Next to street,
Georg, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Lovely place to stay. Similar to a hostel but everyone staying here were quiet and friendly. One star removes due to the duvet being uncomfortable, was quite rough against my skin. Otherwise, would come back!
Sophia, 1-night trip

A great place to stay! Would stay here again!
Tony, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Very interesting property! Would have loved to know more about it since it seemed like a sheep farm but I wasn’t sure if it’s still used. Interesting building in the back as well. Scenery is beautiful. Big common space with 3 bathrooms shared by the rooms!
Jonathan & Vanessa, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Friendly staff, good room, bathing and kitchen facilities are great. The close by and associated restaurant Gamla Flosid offers good food and service. I have no complaints and recommend South Iceland Guesthouse.
Per, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had a wonderful stay here. The beds were so comfortable and the room was very clean. We ate dinner at their restaurant across the road and had the best Icelandic cod. Bathrooms were clean and shower was nice. I would recommend this place to a friend.
Megan, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Super easy check-in. Great facilities. Convenient and beautiful views.
Tammy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

This was our first time staying at a Guesthouse and can say it was a positive experience. The place was clean and you have access to a communal kitchen. The rooms were quiet and the bed was comfy. They had blackout blinds but the 2" gap between them make them less effective. Everyone seemed to respect each others' space. We were hesitant about sharing bathrooms but it was no big deal. It would be nice to have an extra towel or two, and a place to hang them in the room. Also, you have to use individual hand drying towels in the shared bathroom which is fine but that stack ran out very quickly.
Christopher, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very homey and clean
Amanda, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very modern, clean guesthouse along the ring road, close to Vik/ other major waterfalls. Enjoyable pit stop with fully stocked kitchen.
Rachel, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The property itself is well decorated and comfortable. However, with 5-6 families sharing one bathroom and kitchen, it is a little bit crowded.
Irene, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Nice clean and pretty, there’s a big kitchen and 3 shared bathrooms. We had our dinner at the restaurant where we checked in, it was quite nice.
