I loved staying at this location and getting to go in and pet the cows. The room was nice and the staff was kind. I would definitely stay here again!

Great stay. Convenient to many sites. Clean comfortable room. The restaurant is a highlight don’t pass up the opportunity for dinner here.
russell, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely wonderful time here. You are basically right in lake Myvatn and the rooms are basically in the lava fields of the area. We got to pet the baby and adult cows and ate breakfast while they were being milked which was amazing. The dinner and the breakfast buffet were both delicious. The room itself was very nice (but very hot) and the bed was good. Everyone who worked here was really lovely.

Everything was excellent. The staff members were all friendly, the food was fresh and delicious. It was a lot of fun petting the cows. I highly recommend staying at this resort.

This working farm was such a delightful stay on our trip around the Ring Road. Their farm-to-table restaurant is fantastic. 5 stars!!

A unique and memorable farm stay experience

This is a unique property set on a working farm. One of the highlights was being able to see the cows through the dining room window during breakfast and dinner — and even getting the chance to visit and pet them, which was a real treat. The rooms were cozy and cabin-like, with effective blackout curtains, though it did get quite hot in June without air conditioning. The bathroom was small but the space overall was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed walking around the property and soaking in the peaceful natural surroundings — though do be prepared for mosquitoes and bugs. The food was a standout (but expensive): the vegetarian dinner was delicious, and breakfast featured the most amazing fresh bread.

I enjoyed seeing the cows on the property. Both dinner and the breakfast provided was excellent. It was a pity that I did not get to see the Northern Lights while I was here, one of the main reasons I decided to stay at this town but the stay at this hotel ended up being one of the main highlights of this stay.

雖然價格很高,但住起來體驗很好。 早餐有提供本次來冰島吃到最好吃的起司。 唯一缺點是服務生很忙,各種諮詢可能都會需要等一小段時間。 另外房間門屬於傳統門鎖,其反鎖方式對國際旅客來說可能不是那麼直覺。如果你也是第一次造訪冰島,建議在checkin時先詢問反鎖方式(我們自己研究了五分鐘才明白)。

This is a great place with a kind staff. You are very close to all the things to see in the area. The working farm was fun to see while we ate breakfast. We would 100% stay here again.

This is a very unique experience and cool property. The rooms though have no view as they are across the road and are older log cabin style.

Terrific combination of guest rooms, and a dairy farm, with an outstanding restaurant. Very helpful and kind staff.

Deuxième séjour dans cet établissement. Accueil pas tres chaleureux, manque d’insonorisation dans les chambres, petit déjeuner correct avec certains produits faits sur place (c’est une ferme à la base). La carte du restaurant est pauvre et assez couteuse pour des plats juste corrects. A faire une fois, nous n’y retournerons pas, les prix nous semblent un peu élevés pour ce que c’est, alors qu’il y a un certain nombre d’autres établissements dans le secteurs, à prix comparables et peut être mieux équipés et situés (vue lac ?)

Quaint little place with beautiful views of the lake. Our room was clean and the beds were soft.
Kyle, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A gem of a place - they have made so much out of a simple sparse farm area. The staff was absolutely lovely and the restaurant - both dinner and breakfast - was super good, high quality and excellent service. Rooms are simple and clean. Cows are behind a glass wall but you can visit them whenever you want! Perfectly located for Myvatn area visiting.
Helen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at Vogafjos for two nights on our trip around the ring road. It was super comfortable, clean and quiet. We had dinner at their restaurant one night and it was fantastic - one of the best meals of our trip so far! I highly recommend and we would definitely stay there again!

Avoid if you have food allergies / Kids

This hotel is not very inclusive of people with food allergies or suitable for children. We stayed at the hotel in June 2024 during a severe weather warning when we were restricted / couldn’t travel anywhere. Our 7 year old daughter has a dairy and egg allergy. There was no dairy free milk or dairy free butter at breakfast which significantly limited our daughter’s breakfast options. In addition to this there was no sausage or bacon. It was all cheese, yoghurt, cold meats, cereal, none of which a child would eat / could eat. I mentioned this to the staff and all they could suggest was she eat fruit. There was no offer to try and accommodate her allergies. This was very stressful given the fact we were stranded at this hotel (roads closed due to snow). They didn’t even have a kids menu for lunch/evening. I think this hotel is more geared to couples, not families and certainly not people who have allergies. As a result every night, we risked driving 4 minutes up the road in bad weather so my daughter could eat at the restaurant next to another hotel. In summary I would also advise not staying in Lake Myvatn, but in Akuyeri. Lake Myvatn is in the middle of nowhere and if you get snow (in June!!!) you will be stranded. Nobody clears the road between Akureyi and Lake Myvatn.
