This is one of the cutest and neatest places I’ve ever stayed. My partner and I had a great time reading all of the recipes on the wall and looking through the extensive amount of books. We loved that it felt very cozy and private, and we were still near the national park and other stops on our trip. I cannot recommend this place enough!

Cozy, well equipped guest house with plenty of character and amazing views. So comfortable!!
Place and people are nice,
the right position to visit Snaefellsjokull National Park and the west of the peninsula.
There are no easily accessible restaurants and shops, you have to provide all your supplies.
In the hostel, you have a nice functional kitchen, refrigerator, and a small bar to buy drinking and snacks: light beverages, juices, potato chips, and smarties. To find milk, bread, and food, you have to wait for the day after, at the nearest shop with a minimum 15 km run. Once you organize yourself, life is comfortable, and friend are nice.

Small, quiet town along the water near the tip of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. It is quite beautiful in the area with sites nearby. The location is great if you are spending two days touring the peninsula. The murals are fun to view but that's about all there is to do in the town itself.

We were trying to find a hotel close to the Snaefellsjokull Nat'l Park. Now that we have been there, we would opt for staying on Olafsvik (with 2 restaurants for dinner) or go to other side of park at Hellnar or Arnarstapi.
Hellissandur didn't have much going on, except Gilbakki Kaffihus is very nice for mid-morning snack, lunch or afternoon break. Very nice people.

I went to climb Snæfellsjökull, a 30 year ambition. Weather was horid, glad to not be spending the next 300 year as part of a glacier. Lets say it was an exciting day and not for those without experience with Ice weapons.
The Freezer Hostel is a unique place to stay. It was the only place where we really got to speak with local Icelanders. Loved the communal space and the kitchen had everything we needed. Great place to base your trip in the Snaefellnes Penninsula and the staff was super helpful with places to visit. Fabulous music on our 2nd night. Don't miss the opportunity to walk around town! The arctic tern refuge is really interesting, just be smart about how close you get.
This was one of the most eclectic hostels I've ever stayed in. Staff were super helpful, and gave a nice tour of the hostel. Had an awesome room for bands, cool room with a ping pong table and nice large gathering room with a small bar (and a chess board). About a 10 min drive to see Saxholl Carer, and 20 min to Hellnar view point, Stone bridge and Londrangar View point. Great location. Cute town next door, Hellissandur, is the street art capital of Iceland.
This was one of favorite stays in Iceland and the vacation home was huge with kitceh and 1. bed with gorgeous ocean view right on top of a cliff..Beautiful location direct at the sea, very clean and huge patio with ocean view, High speed wifi and awesome collections of traditional Icelandic songs with a CD player. Really friendly host and will def come back and stay here again. 10/10 for sure for this wonderful stay
The location is terrific, with spectacular views of the ocean through large "picture windows" in the living room and bedroom. Given that Hellisandur is such a small town, Gotuhus is within easy walking distance of the restaurants, gas station with groceries, the legendary The Freezer culture club and hostel, and the entrance to Snaefellsjokull National Park.
I loved everything about this place! The kitchen had more utensils than most people have at home, so many choices of board games, and all the books! Made you feel like you want to stay for a month to discover everything on the shelves! Such a great idea for an apartment! Do not miss a chance to get breakfast served by a real viking in RAM Iceland!
Beautiful, cute and quaint house. Loved staying here. Very responsive hosts. Would highly recommend! Great location to explore the peninsula. Restaurants in town were all closed for the season but we found restaurants 10 mins away and a grocery store so no problem. Loved the murals in this town also.
Great location overlooking the water in the small town of Hellissandur at the tip of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. We did a two day trip along the peninsula from Reykjavik so this was a perfect location for the night. Enjoyed reading a book in the living room and watching the ocean.
A great and dynamic place : this bar and social center has great vibes, good beer and awesome events going on ! We were even able to meet the President of Iceland (he was there for a theatre play premiere), so definitely a night that we'll remember !
amazing location, Hellissandur is peaceful and lovely, the apartment is so comfy and welcoming, there is no tv which I thought was great, I liked the records and bluetooth player, way better than a tv, the balcony overlooking the sea was just divine
It's not a fancy hotel but the location is lovely, there are restaurants nearby, the staff is really kind, the breakfast is great. Does it need refurbishments? Absolutely. But if you're just staying for a night, I think it's a good choice.
Awesome view and cute house. Best place in Iceland we've stayed in. We watched a beautiful midnight sunset and were overall satisfied. Neatly decorated and clean as well! Comfortable beds and little extra goods here and there!
This place was beyond expectations. We liked everything. The flat is beautiful and well kept. The view is amazing. We really appreciated the music and the books. Absolutely the best place we have stayed in Iceland.
The first morning we got a breakfast box for each one and it was not very good. The second morning there were more people in the hotel and breakfast was served and each person choose what to eat, much better.
It was our first experience with “no reception” arrival but it worked very well. Email received day of our arrival provided code for entry to hotel and code for room. The rooms were exceptionally clean.
Great location with easy access to the Snæfellsnes national park. Comfortable, nice amenities like chocolates at check in. Excellent and super friendly service from Patrick at the front desk.
Such Great Place to stay in a beautiful area of Iceland. Beds (8 dorm) were comfortable. Woman receptionist was very nice. Very Good hanging out & Kitchen cooking area.
