The Old Post Office Guesthouse, hotel in Grundarfjordur

This family-run guest house is situated in central Grundafjördur. It offers free parking and brightly decorated rooms with free Wi-Fi and a flat-screen TV.

Great place in the heart of Grundarfjörður. Made a last minute booking for the night. There were no other guests and the receptionist came quite fast. Everything is pretty clean and at least my room looked recently renovated. Good value for money. I got a voucher for a free coffee at nearby Café Valeria, highly recommended!

Skjólsteinar, hotel in Grundarfjordur

With sea views, Skjólsteinar is located in Grundarfjordur and has free WiFi. This homestay is located on a farm with farm animals living on site.

If you're looking for fancy accommodation with new furniture and lots of space, this may not be suitable for you. However, if you're interested in meeting locals, this is a great opportunity. Some reviews mention the smell of horses in the house, but it's not like the house is filthy; it's most likely just some rugs or shoes in the hall (if you have a dog, they're probably the first thing you smell in your hall). I should mention that our room was clean and odor-free. The kitchen is small, so I wouldn't recommend any big cooking. We spent just one night here. We cooked some pasta, took a hot shower, chatted with the house owner (a nice guy), and got some good sleep - perfect for this purpose.

    Grundarfjordur is a convenient town for exploring the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. It has a good grocery store and two excellent cafes for coffee & treats. A little food truck is open until the end of August. We stayed here 4 nights so we would have time to explore and I'm glad we did because one day was too stormy to see sights and another day wasn't optimal.

    Destination port for cruise ships, correspondingly temporarily overcrowded. All pilgrimage to Kirkjufell (known from social media), which is accordingly overcrowded. Deterrent example of Icelandic mass tourism. :-(

    Definitely not worth the extra drive time, town is not set up for tourists at all, hotel was 350 euros, which was very high compared to all other night on our trip. We spent the same, but had much better accommodations. Much more to do in the other towns

    The town/village itself is really quite sweet.

    The town/village itself is really quite sweet. We didn't spend much time there, but we did drive in to use the grocery store and walk around a bit. Kirkjufell Mountain is really quite stunning and one of the most recognizable Icelandic landmarks. You can just sit and look at it all day. For such a small town, Grundarfjordur is packed with loads of hotels, guesthouses, shops and places to eat. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

    This small mountain gets a lot of positive press and yes, it's kind of cool but really not all that great. We were trying to find it the last time we were here (three years ago) and drove right past it. There is a parking lot on the left as you are leaving town and you need to park and get out for the mountain to "look" like it looks in the pictures you see everywhere- with the waterfalls, etc. There are numerous sights around Iceland that make this one look like a joke. Still...stopping for 5 minutes to get a picture or two will be worth it but you won't look back on this one and remember how awesome it was.

    A gorgeous setting next to Kirkjufell Mountain! It is a very convenient base for exploring the Snaefellsness peninsula. Dont miss the wonderful restaurant, Bjargarsteinn Mathus, where our meal was truly exceptional.

    Despite the friendly reception lady and the stunning view from the front of the building, the main problem is the design of the place. Many rooms lead straight off a (dark but well-equipped) communal kitchen area, and so noise travels easily. The description of the place is ambiguous and doesn't really paint an accurate picture that staying here does, in many ways, feel like an expensive youth hostel. Definitely overpriced compared to everywhere else we stayed during two weeks in Iceland.

    This property must be one of the best locations to stay anywhere in Iceland. Although the property looks a little tired from the outside and no longer has a hot tub, the interior was really lovely and well equipped. As a family of five, having four bedrooms was really appreciated. Best of all was sitting in the conservatory and taking in the views. Communication with the host (Eva) was really good and the property offered good value for money given the premium location.

    This beautiful little cozy home offered a priceless view. The bed was comfortable and the view from the bedroom had us wishing to stay in bed all day. Huge plus that we were able to do our laundry here. Also, we love dogs so we fully appreciated the excited welcome from the dogs on the property. We were in Iceland a week and regret not booking more then one day here. This little farmhouse is top of the list when we hopefully return in the future!

    The location is excellent. On a clear day or even rainy day you can look across the ocean to see the beautiful Kirkjufell peak. It’s located only 10 minutes out of town (Grundarfjordur) and right by a scenic golf course. We stayed in the duplex cottage which was clean, cozy and comfortable. The breakfast was wonderful as well. I would love to spend more time here but our travel plans are taking us elsewhere.

    Easy check-in with keybox. Pretty standard hotel room in a very good location, close to Kirkjufell. Good place for an evening walk along the harbour and cute village. Breakfast was good and staff friendly. We also had dinner in the Harbour Cafe (where breakfast is served) - it was OK but not great for the price you pay. We loved the soup but the lasagna was not great, cake for dessert was clearly defrosted.

    This was our favorite property of our 10 nights in Iceland at 8 different ones due to the size and beautiful location. We had horses on one side and water and mountain on the other and it was close to a smaller, pretty waterfall. The owner was very responsive as we were missing towels. Not sure why all the showers in Iceland are so small but that was common but this bathroom had a nice heated floor.

    The bed was so comfortable - the best we had in our time in Iceland - the shower was hot with great water pressure, and the properly is nicely-located and easy to find. Self check-in process was easy to do. Located very close to restaurants and the vinbudin, as well as to the tour company we used for an afternoon excursion. Loved our overnight stay here in Grundarfordur and hope to be back!

    The interior of the hotel was extremely clean and tidy. The staff were so nice and helpful- my friends and I had instant noodles and even though the kitchen was already closed, they were still kind enough to offer to heat up our food and provide some hot water. The rooms were nice and clean and lots of space. Right outside our window was the Kirkjufell mountain too, which was a nice bonus :)

    Excellent location, facility and layout of the property. One of our best stays in Iceland and worthwhile to visit again. Only 4 minutes from the Kirkjufellsfoss and has an exceptional view of Kirkjufell Mountain from the living area. We were also fortunate to watch the aurora right on the patio! What an amazing combination of location, property and hospitality! Highly recommended!

    That was the best apartment we were during our trip in Iceland. The apartment is perfect for a family of 4 or 5 people. The apartment is well equipped and decored, everything you may need is there. The views from all the rooms to the Kirkjufell mountain are awesome. The communication with the host and the check in/out process were smooth and easy.

    Very convenient location, only about 10 minutes car drive from Kirkjufell, which made our stay in Dis Cottages even more lovely! Enjoying midnight sunsetting in a total quietness except for bird chirping is Must Have experience if you love peace in isolation. Also managers of the place are very welcoming and stay just nearby.

    Very good location if your are staying in Grundarfjordur. Rooms are very well equipped with small fridge and small cooking facility. The view from the room was spectacular with mount Kirkjufell and the see directly in front of us. We met one of the owner down stairs a very pleasant guy but otherwise no other staff.
