It's very basic, but if you’re looking for a peaceful, remote base for highland walks, with a beautiful garden, homey kitchen, cosy sitting room and mountain views that make your knees tremble, then you’ll find it here. There are only seven bare mattresses in the attic (bring a sleeping bag) and two four-bed rooms on the main floor. Book ahead. HI members get a discount.
Find it 27km east of Hvolsvöllur. The road gets rough toward the end and only 4x4s can make it up the steep hill to the hotel's parking area; those with regular cars should park at the bottom and walk the 50m up. Bring all supplies.
