Álfheimar Hotel was a lovely 2 night stay for our small group. The town is small and cozy, we took a walk to the top of Alfborg and just love the ocean views.

We arrived late, about 9:45 pm, and they made sure to wait for us, got us taken care of quickly and showed us to our room. The included breakfast was a decent variety and got us going in the morning. It was a short stay but enjoyable and we would definitely stay there again.

The area is rather remote but the ideal place to see puffins up close -- literally at your feet from the viewing platform that the town has built next to the puffin nesting area. The breakfast and dinner at the hotel were very tasty!

Alfheimer is a gem on the east coast. We decided to stay another night. The staff is very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Accommodations were perfect with a comfortable bed and great tasting food. The locally brewed beer is delicious as well. All around a wonderful experience. Should we ever come back to Iceland we will be back here.

This is perfect for puffin watching(7 min drive). The northern lights are right outside the room or the hotel. Thats how dark it is next to the hotel. The breakfast was very good. The views around the hotels itself are very good. Staff is friendly and helpful, the receiptionist gave us tips on hiking etc

Really loved the buffet dinner we had. It’s the best meal we have had during our entire stay (15 days) at Iceland. This country style hotel is a gem. We enjoyed our stay tremendously.
