Kitchen was a little dated and not super clean

Good location for seeing Studlagil, around 20 mins from here. Comfy bed and clean room, parking on site

It's loud when people get up really early

Nice staff, renovated shower room

Stayed in July 2025

Sounded like doors were slamming all night, not the property's fault just a hazard of staying in a busy hostel.

The individual room was standard and bed was comfy.

The shared kitchen and common dining room was a bit small and on a different building from where we were. The all place felt a bit dated and in need of a redecoration.

We loved the room and bathroom size. Location was perfect to visit the Studlagil canyon

Bistro bar was very good

… it’s really basic. Strange smells all around, kitchen without basic things - not even a wash cloth and detergent for dishwashing…

Good location and it filled its purpose (stop for the night during our ring road trip), but…

family run establishment, the owners were very kind, they even helped us find the Northern Lights! Overall, well managed and clean rooms, ok bathrooms. Good kitchen but unfortunately no sink, but the owners offered to wash the dishes and provide us with the necessary water. highly recommended!

It’s a bit off the road area but if you have car then it’s not a problem. Bathroom was shared but it was big and clean too

Walls were not very sound proof and could hear people all night long.

Had dinner there and it was fantastic as well as the staff being friendly and helpful.

Stayed in July 2024

There was no personal contact with the staff. A key was lying at the entrance. We did not know how the breakfast and checkout worked.

We stayed one night at the hotel and everything was fine. The furniture is very simple and also the rooms are of a normal standard. The bathroom was very huge. The location is quite good as it is close to the canyon.

Could hear other guests if they weren't being self aware - no fault of the property, unfortunately one couple were inconsiderate and being unnecessarily loud. After asking them to be quieter, it was great. Note: no kitchen for hostel guests. A second pillow per bed would make the stay even nicer! :)

Comfy beds, lovely hotel and a simple but well appointed room. Beds were slightly bigger than othe rplaces we stayed. Beautiful and peaceful location. Staff were friendly and helpful.

A bit expensive and only one toilet/ shower shared between a few rooms.

Friendly staff, good location for Studagil Canyon, nice food, warm and welcoming. Good for an overnight stay. Not much else around.

Stayed in August 2023

Staff friendly but especially during breakfast they were understaffed and all the food were running out before they could replace it.

Good value for money.

We had three person room. It was cramped for our suitcases.

I did not have breakfast so I have no opinion on it. The Studlagil Hostel was pretty what I expected. It was clean and the price was good for a three person room, The shared bath was clean but modest. The bed was comfortable.

Shower inside is cold, so you need to use the campsite's one, kitchen also outside with the campsite, although not too much of a big problem. Otherwise not really much of an atmosphere in general, not many people. But in general all good!

Not bad for a night/stopover. Room was clean and quiet. The staff lady was super nice and cool :)

Needed updating Showers and toilets facilities were insufficient for the number of people staying

Good location Fabulous staff

The shared kitchen did not even basic supplies (salt, peper, sugar...). It was just the utensils. Soap/body wash in the showers also not provided - as is usually the practice in other hostels.

Right off the highway, it was a very convenient overnight stop at we drove from Egillsstadir to the northern parts of Iceland. The time were very comfortable. Nothing else for miles around. The cafeteria in the hostel has limited choices, but good food. The complimentary tea/coffee was a nice touch.

Stayed in June 2025

Bad smell at the room. The heater was not working. Showers and bathrooms were old and not very clean. In addition during the night the alarm was ringing and this was scary, hopefully this was a false alarm. The only positive is the convenient location of the hostel.

Stayed in August 2024

Very friendly staff, large clean room. Comfy beds. Ate at the bistro for early supper and it was very good. Also ate breakfast there, not included and was pretty expensive for what it was. It was convenient and did the job though.

Stayed in August 2024

nearly everything, too expensive for what it offers and unfriendly people breakfast was disappontment too I 'm afraid, hardly any fresh fruit, miserable !

sorry to say, but a real shithole. tiny room which was too hot with small window wide open, but therefor noisy due to location alongside the ringroad

Stayed in June 2024

The outside look. It didn’t tell the story about how wonderful the place was.

So clean. Homely. Staff were superb. Helpful and accommodating. Great breakfast. Very comfortable beds.
