Reviews of Brimslóð Atelier Guesthouse

This hotel was wonderful. The very best part of our stay was the communal dining. We ate a delicious 3-course meal for dinner and sat with guests from Switzerland, Poland and Australia. The conversation was lively and the setting was in front of a picture window with an incredible view of the sea and sunset. We had a delicious breakfast with a family from Spain and again, the conversation was delightful and the food, delicious. We experienced both guest buildings - one room in each - and both were so nice. The beds were comfortable and our partial sea view was nice. The location was great for walking the birding trail on both sides of the river. We were there right before the Arctic Tern migration and they were so much fun to watch.

The pillows were a bit too puffy - one of us slept using a folded t-shirt to avoid back pain. It was also quite warm in our room. I wish we had known beforehand that we would need to take our shoes off for meals (for our rooms, too, but that didn't matter). My feet were so cold during dinner and I would have brought slippers (or at least worn socks!). Maybe the guesthouse could offer inexpensive branded slippers to guests as part of the cost of the stay?

Wonderful location, beautiful dinner (cooked by a talented chef on site), very comfortable rooms. Breakfast was delicious, the fresh bread was a great treat. It was such a quiet place situated right on the beachfront - falling asleep listening to the waves was a huge highlight.

The communal dinner was nice , visiting with guest from around the world. There is a bar within walking distance that we enjoyed. Room was small but worked for 2 people.

The room and shower were both on the small side

Exquisite breakfast

We loved everything! The view, the food, the hospitality. It was our best stop. Super tasty home cooking at the level of a Michelin restaurant.

Nice guesthouse with friendly staff and restaurant. Rooms are simple, shared bathrooms are clean and comfortable.

Liked the dinner, if you have an opp - get it! great food and very good company, overall expeirence was lovely. common facilities are nice, all is very cozy the view from the table is amazing, hosts are nice, room is warm, parking is easy.

closest room to the kitchen -- a bit noisy until everyone went to sleep, but wasn't noisy till late felt like there was a line to the shared bathrooms in the evening, their huge, but mb better to have a small toilet also (not just joined shower/bath and toilet)

Good location, easy to get to scenic places! Good restaurants near the location, and the host’s fine cafe!

Stunning location, great room, the staff were very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Nice, quiet seaside setting with very friendly and accommodating staff. Very comfortable and modern room in one of the cottages. The dinner at a communal table was excellent and a highlight of our stay, as the meal was delicious and the international dinner company most enjoyable. And the breakfast is outstanding. A great place to stay while exploring the northern area of Iceland.

This is a small town, so not much going on as far as entertainment and might not be the best place for kids. But a relaxing area that gave a feeling of authenticity of life in northern Iceland.

Dinner was amazing, highly recommended booking dinner if you stay at here. One of the best meals we had on our holiday. It was great fun sharing the table with fellow travellers. Thank you.

Great breakfast.

The room is small and the common space was not accessible during the dinner time.

Easy, convenient check in. Very comfortable accommodations. Quality furnishings and linens. Excellent breakfast.

Amazing view and the best food for both dinner and breakfast.
