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.

What a wonderful little farm stay. The guest house was very spacious, the jacuzzi was hot and ready when we arrived, the hosts were very friendly and allowed the kids to visit the horses in the stable. The property had toys for the kids, a highchair at the table for the baby to eat, and very comfortable home-like charm to it. One of our favorite stays during our Iceland holiday.

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.
Egilsstadir has everything you need to fill up for your road trip: supermarket & gas station ;-)

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 only hotel on our trip which strictly follow COVID-19 preventing rules. Staff on the reception are a bit lazy, staff in restaurant welcoming, friendly and polite. Food in restaurant was just WOW(we tried fish of the day and ice cream), cheers to the chef. Rooms was averagely spacious, clean, offer all the basic stuff, great view from window. There is decent Spa. They offer wake up service if there is Northern lights! A friendly and welcoming black cat by the entrance of hotel which lives in the area.
The cottage was lovely just a few minutes drive from the main shops/restaurants. Amazing location and the cottage was very clean, warm and sufficient amenities.
We were stuck in Egilsstadir due to a storm but we could still exit despite the heavy snow. The owner was super helpful when I called about road closures and also came with a digger and shovel to remove the deep snow after the storm in late March. I travelled the ring road and this stay was my favourite
Where to begin...the bar tenders in the attached bar were friendly and helpfully turned us on to the homemade pizza for dinner; the room was small but perfect; breakfast oh boy! The spread of food was astonishing, from the delicious pastries, bread and toasts to the splendid meats, cheeses, herrings, fresh fruits, cereals - the choices kept us coming back for refills. This hotel surpassed all imagination!
Spectacular location overseeing the lake, with paths leading down to the lakeshore. Very green environment, with a waterfall close to the hotel. Hot tubs to soak in while watching the sunset over the lake. Spotless rooms, new renovation, very comfortable. Very friendly staff, good breakfast.
We were supposed to stay in a cottage but there had been a big snowstorm and the cottages were not available (early April). We were switched to a room at the hotel which was fine, no complaints. Nice common lounge area upstairs and also a hot tub is available for guests.
Staff was very friendly, there was confusion between the hostel and hotel regarding the booking. At the end of the day still got what was listed on the site. The woman behind the front desk quickly fixed the issue and was very apologetic.
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 room was very clean, it had a private bath, and a garden view. The hotel was quiet. There is a shared very well equipped kitchen with two refrigerators and dining area for about 10-15 people.
A really good choice in Egilsstadir. Coming from the US, nothing in Iceland can be categorized as a good value but relatively it was a good size room with nice views, and great supportive staff.
Finnstadir is located near Egilsstadir with outstanding views to the valley and the airport (if you have visibility). Ideal planespotting location. The house is cozy a well-equipped.
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.
Easy location to find, near fuel and shopping. Room and hotel were very clean. Arrived rather late and overnight clerk was exceptionally patient and friendly.
Great facilities. Decent breakfast. Easy access. Just by luck i got the best room in the hotel because i got the view of the northern lights from my window😍
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.
