The Viking House Hotel

What an amazing place, We stayed here for 4 nights and couldn't find anything to fault. The staff on reception are friendly and helpful, the uniqueness of the hotel itself, there is something to visually stimulate you every where you look. Breakfast is help yourself and plenty on offer breads/crackers/meats/cheeses/fruit/yogurts/cereals/ waffles/porridge hot/cold drinks and the most amazingly soft delicious bannana bread. Rooms have everything you need hairdryer,mini fridge,kettle beds were comfortable with nice bed linen and 2 pillows,heating can be adjusted by turning radiators up or down. Our room 32 had the most amazing views. Location wise is around 35 mins from Reykjavik via public transport local buses which are very frequent and is only a five minute walk away, most of the tour companies pick up from bus stop opposite hotel or outside.Hafnarfjörður is a lovely village with beautiful scenery a shopping mall is also here. would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Iceland its very special. The hotel has a restaurant opposite this is also not to be missed.

We had a delicious meal in this perfectly located hotel over looking Cruit George was our gracious host. He was so welcoming, friendly and efficient. He made our visit there very pleasant. I had the chicken and veg curry - very tasty , and my sisters all had fish which was also an excellent choice. Highly recommended!

This is the most incompetent establishment I have ever frequented. They over charged me in APRIL by €78.56 for Sunday lunch. I didn’t notice til i checked my on line banking next day. I’d been charged €156.50 for two adult and I child (spuds and gravy and ice cream for the child - no drinks) The manager Colm has be so rude and ignorant basically calling me a liar saying I got refunded that evening. However it’s not on my bank statement so he said I got cash. He has blamed the bank, the staff and me, saying he hasn’t time for this crap. Now in AUGUST he is saying I got a cash refund that day. I DID NOT. His attitude is unreal, his customer service is despicable, he’s making out I’m a liar. He should remember he will have to rely on us locals during the long winter months. He is the most ignorant obnoxious man I have EVER in my life encountered. It wouldn’t of happened had the previous owner been there, there wouldn’t have even been a question about it. He has ruined a beautiful establishment with his rude surreal attitude and manners. I won’t be back and I am telling everyone I know about it. Good riddance Colm (owner of the once perfect establishment) such a shame.

Myself & my husband stayed here for one night! The staff were warm, welcoming & very accommodating. The bedroom was perfect, cozy & we had a great nights sleep after such a long drive. Breakfast was delicious, the coffee lovely & strong & the service quick. Highly recommend, especially for hikers! We were given great recommendations for places to visit, mountain drives & fishing spots.

The road (from the south) leading up to this small hotel provided a scenic drive along the bay and views out to sea. From the front of the hotel the views are equally as nice. We were checked in by an uncertain young man, our room was small facing the derelict back yard of the hotel. It was clean and tidy and there was plenty of hot water, wifi was a struggle, which was annoying. We’d made a dining reservation long before arrival but when we went down in the evening we were told they didn’t have a chef and the restaurant was closed. Thanks for letting us know! Breakfast in the morning was modest, my scrambled eggs were more omelette, but it was edible just. The barman struggled to use the computer so checkout took ages. This could be a really fantastic little hotel if the service was improved, as it occupies a great position on the coast.

zimmer 5 mit brutalem geräuschpegel des küchenabzugs. unerträglich. solche zimmer darf man gar nicht erst vermieten. auf nachfrage wurde er jm 21h abgestellt. leider gab es keine gab antwort, wann dieser am morgen wieder startet. ohne worte. so schade, wir hatten einen traumtag auf cruit island playing golf.
