we actually had to extend for another night due to a storm shutting down large parts of iceland, but we were glad the hotel had the availability as the room was very nice, everything was clean and quiet and central, with walking distance to restaurants and supermarkets, and a helpful staff!
i had read mixed reviews somewhere else but could not confirm those, as we did not have any issues with noise, cleanliness, or the water!

We are group of family (6 people) and booked 2 triple rooms which they managed the room to be closed as requested. The triple rooms have 2 levels (2 beds on the first floor and the other one on the second floor) which is really lovely. There are big windows to see the view which is different between first and second floor. The view from the room is beautiful. There are a lot of parking lot available, and we can temporarily park near the building to bring our luggages down first. The checkin and checkout process is easy.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Husey Hostel. The place is charming and our rooms were very comfortable and big. We met people from all over the world in the common areas. The staff was incredibly kind as well. Our daughter forgot her very dear doll in the bed and Elisabet and Laufey were kind enough to ship it all the way back to us. We were also able to visit the Puffin colony about an hour away from the hostel. Overall a wonderful experience.

Easy self check-in service. The guesthouse also has a jacuzzi which we made great use of! The decorations in the house itself were very wholesome, lots of Dutch souvenirs which made us feel right at home. :)

We stayed at the Berjaya overnight as we were driving the N1 ring road, we visited the Vok baths, an absolute must if you are visiting Egilsstadir.
It’s only a 5 minute drive from the hotel it was wonderful.

This was a great stopping point after driving the eastern Fjords on a Sunday. They had a couple places that were open where we could eat, get gas and groceries. This town was a nice place to stay after driving through many of the lovely villages along the coast and before heading to Husavik. You're also close to Hengifoss and not far from Studlagil Canyon, though we only drove halfway down the road before we gt nervous with the icy road right on the side of a cliff.

We loved the tourist info center there along the lake with the Gunnar Gunnerson museum and restaurant. We had a great buffet meal there. We enjoyed the tourist rest area because the lady there spent time with us as we looked around at the exhibits. It was an unexpected surprise.

Good hotel overall.
Locally, we went to Vik Baths, very good experience.
On our 10 day driving the Ring Road, we had already visited the Blue Lagoon. Vik Baths was an alternative to the Blue Lagoon, well worth visiting.

Small town, cannot say too much about it. We had here a stop and stayed at the Ormurrinn Cottages.

Practical location. A lot of to explore around the town. We were on a short travel and the weather was fine, so we didn't use a lot of services there. We are planning an other travel there because there are so much to do 😀
The house is right outside the town of Egilsstadir, very easy to find.
We were met by a very friendly owner and his two lovely dogs. He was extremely helpful and the house was truly a gem!
Decorated with old-style furniture, but very cosy, clean and it has a hot tub outside with an amazing view! We wish we could have stayed longer and can definitely recommend it for anyone wanting to spend time at East Iceland!
The staff working there are really enthusiastic about what they do, you will be greeted with a smile and a hearty hello. They will assist you with whatever it is you need, conversation, directions and suggestions about your travels. It is already a good hotel, I can only imagine what they will improve with the current plans that they are drawing up.
The Hotel Manager and her family were great, we enjoyed chatting about life in iceland and my son loved playing and exploring the area with the kids. The hotel was clean and tidy and breakfast was a lovely mix of meats, cheeses, pancakes, cereals and more.
The room was nice and comfortable. Windows were facing the lake. Good size bathroom. Free on-site parking. There are restaurants, supermarkets and gas stations near the hotel though the town is not very big. Easy in and out of Road 1.
I had a problem with the iron in the room. The reception staff gave me a quick and efficient solution. The restaurant is the best thing about the hotel. It's expensive, but it's worth it. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful.
What a fantastic hotel! We loved the property and room. There was a nice lake view from our room and we enjoyed the hot tubs overlooking the lake. Breakfast was included and was tasty. The staff was friendly and helpful.
The breakfast was diverse and great. The guesthouse itself is a bit outside of Egilsstadir and therefore it’s a quiter area - We really liked that! It was also very tidy and clean! We enjoyed our stay there.
The staff was so helpful and friendly. The cottage was very clean and comfortable. It was very quiet and relaxing. The amenities at the main hotel were excellent. There are even some hot tubs.
I didn't like anything about the property. All the main highways were shut down and we could not get to the hotel and they refused to give us a refund. I would highly stay away from this hotel.
We needed a place with a little more than just a plane hotel room. Having a little kitchen was nice and it was very well appointed with all the basic appliances and utensils.
Clean, quiet, great breakfast. Homemade breads were amazing! The staff was friendly. Nice common areas. Great view of Lagarfljót river. 8 minutes away from Egilsstadir.
We had an amazing expérience. The Best hôtel we stay in iceland (2 weeks trip). Everything is here to feel relax and peacefull. Dont hesitate, chose this one.
Before we stayed at Edda in Hofn and I don't want to say Edda Egilsstadir was a big disappointment, but definitely was below the quality we got in Hofn.
