This tiny cabin had everything you may need for the night (frying pan in good condition (better that few houses we stayed in:), pan, kettle, spatula, olive oil, even hair dryer). Heating system is awesome, warms up the cabin very quickly. Everything was very clean too. Loved it!!!

We stayed at 5 different places on our Iceland visit and Gesthus Selfoss was the best value BY FAR of all of them. Cabins were well appointed, fully functional, and comfortable. Nice little veranda with table/chairs. The staff were extremely helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was an extra charge but reasonable and nice. We ended up staying an extra night, on a weekend, and they found rooms for us.
4.0 / 5.0
The cabin we stayed in was alright for a family of 3 for one night, but I could imagine it being very cramped for more people or longer stay.
There's a small kitchenette, but it's hard to do any cooking due to the tight space.
We were feeling lucky to have the cabin to stay though looking at the camping tents right outside our window as it was raining very hard throughout the night.

Great location near local amenities, it is also at the local camping site. Reasonably priced, condition may not be the most modern, but ok. There is breakfast served at the camp site restaurant at additional cost, but did not try.

It met our needs on our ring road trip.
1.5 / 5.0
Although the small cabin was basically fine in terms of comfort, there was a strong smell coming from the bathroom, like a pit toilet stank, which was so powerful we needed to keep the door to the bathroom closed. Even keeping the window open was not enough to dissipate it.

Gesthus Selfoss is actually a fairly large (& popular !) campsite for tents, RV's and of course cabins (which we rented). The cabin was comfortable, clean and for us (we had a rental car) very conveniently located. If we wanted to, we could have prepared meals (has 2-burner range, fridge, etc.)
By the way, Selfoss is a very nice town and not far (15km) from the Kerið Crater Lake. Do book early because Selfoss is a popular stop for Golden Circle travelers. Two excellent restaurant experiences for us were: 'BK Bakari' in the morning (coffee, made on site breads, pastries, sandwiches) and 'Tryggvaskali' for dinner (amazing food & service; put a reservation in place)

Unfortunately, Gesthus Selfoss was under maintenance, so they transferred us to Bella Apartments. Everything was nice, but as we were expecting a hot tub at Gesthus Selfoss, there is not one at Bella hotel so we were slightly disappointed.
4.0 / 5.0
Nice quick stay. The Wi-Fi did not reach our cabin though so the tv didn’t work and we didn’t have internet to research our next day’s activities

Perfect location. The hut was convenient, clean, easy to find

We stayed in Hof Cottage. Within the first hour, we found a bed bug in our room. It was horrendous and made the rest of our stay uncomfortable. We were luckily given another house for the night, but it was inconvenient. Our vacation was ruined after that with the lasting thought of bed bugs lingering in our luggage. Take the high praise of this location with a grain of salt. You never know what you may find. We would not recommend staying here to our friends or family despite having high hopes.
3.0 / 5.0
Nice cabin. However there were no black-out blinds in the main room with the sofa bed. It was very hard to sleep with so much sunlight.
4.0 / 5.0
The house where we stayed was well soundproofed. In good general condition even if the bathroom needs updating. There are 2 hot tubs on the property which we enjoyed. Parking in the immediate vicinity. No local nearby, you have to move with a vehicle
5.0 / 5.0
The room was good condition near a nice camping area. There is a laundry machine in the common area. The nice restaurants are at 5 minutes driving distance.

We stayed in the Hvummar cabin and it was lovely! Spacious rooms (one with 2 twin beds and one with an queen bed), bathroom, living room, kitchen/dining area plus a large deck with a dining area, a grill, and a private hot tub. We enjoyed watching the birds and visiting with the neighborhood cat. The attached camp ground (for campers and tents) filled quickly, as there was a soccer tournament next door. The property is quite close to the Selfoss food hall, although we didn’t go. We went to the nearby Bonus for groceries and to the liquor store in the same parking lot for a few beers and cooked our own dinner and breakfast. We would definitely stay here again - and hope to do so again soon!

Room was old and outdated. Kitchen was basic. Mould on the window sills from the constant condensation in the room. No block out curtain on door window. The matress was old and lumpy. The public washing machine and dryer were not clean and mouldy

The cabin was very clean and has a little kitchen if you need to cook. It also has a nice porch. We could hear the campers outside a little bit but it wasn’t too loud. It was nice to have a private bathroom (which can be hard to find in Iceland!). The staff were very nice as well. Our stay was short but we enjoyed it!
5.0 / 5.0
We had a great experience staying at the Gesthus in Selfoss. It was in a great location, with a walkable grocery store and many dining options. The owners are very nice and very helpful as well. The rooms are clean and comfortable, spacious and functional. Highly recommend.
