Fljotsbakki Farm Hotel

Very nice hosts The complimentary breakfast is simple but really delicious The room is spacious and tidy The cats here are really adorable Highly recommended

We enjoyed our stay in this sweet farm hotel. It was positioned in a great spot that was close to everything we needed. It was so fun listening to the sheep bleating as we settled in for the night. The beds were comfy and there were so many thoughtful touches that made staying here delightful.

We very much enjoyed our stay at this farm hotel. Don't be put off by the remote location or unassuming appearance of building. Inside it we found a delightful room, nicely set up, with comfortable bed and good bathroom facilities. Everything worked well. The breakfast in the farmhouse was very good, and the host could not have been more helpful or congenial. If you can work it in to your ring road experience, I think you will be happy with this choice. We would definitely stay again.

It’s 4km north of the Godafoss Waterfall. The rooms were really nicely done. Comfortable bed. It comes with breakfast. It had scrambled eggs, a pastry, meats, cheese, yogurt, fruits and vegetables. It had bread, but it was the cheap bread. I would have rather paid more for quality, heartier bread. That’s what was lacking for my husband and myself. Other than that, everything was fantastic! We would stay here again. We would just bring our own bread. 😂

The farm is just great. A bit away from the waterfall and nature is a dream. The owners/employees are funny and a little grumpy. The breakfast is good and solid, with a lot of care and quickly refilled. The breakfast room is a bit small, but it works somehow. The rooms are great, very good and nicely furnished, large, lots of facilities. There are enough parking spaces. In front of the old barn is a beautifully situated bench in the sun. You really can't complain about anything.

Lovely little hotel just outside Akureyri and right across from Godafoss. Less than an hour drive to Myvatn Nature Baths. Great location, friendly innkeepers, good variety in the free breakfast. Highly recommend.

If you're looking for a place that has the comforts of a hotel but also the feel of real rural Iceland, this is the place for you. The hotel rooms are built in an annex off the property's sheep barn, and the sheep wander all over. (There's also a friendly cat who hangs around.) I was told they no longer offer the evening dinner, apparently having gotten overburdened by guests not being respectful enough to reserve ahead of time, but they still offer a terrific free breakfast with a wide selection every morning. The owners will occasionally pop in during breakfast to chat with the guests. While there's no TV in the rooms, everything else is top notch, including a modern ensuite bathroom. The two-headed shower was confusing to turn on and there was a microscopically tiny spot you had to hit in order to get hot water, but it was spotlessly clean, with plenty of linens. The location is also great for those looking to get out into the north island countryside. The farm is literally right across the Ring Road from the famous Godafoss waterfall (as legend has it, the place where Christianity was officially accepted in Iceland) and less than an hour away from both Akureyri and the Lake Myvatn area. I would absolutely stay again if in the area.
