This hotel is a little out of town (like, maybe a 7 minute drive, which is nothing, really) so it's very quiet, which was great. The surrounding scenery is beautiful, the facilities & room were comfortable, & the staff for friendly. Breakfast was included & it was a very generous selection. We'd definitely recommend this hotel.

This is a fantastic roomy appartment and a great place to come back to after a long day out. The place is not only clean - it is spotless (I am very picky when it comes to cleaniness and this place delivers!!) - and it is very well-equipped as well so you just need to move in and start living. The car parking is right outside of the appartment so it is very xonvenient. A supermarket is 2mins away. Highly recommended.

Cozy town tucked against a black sand beach with beautiful mountainous terrain and multiple viewpoints and other attractions within short driving distance. Definitely a town everyone should stop in when they are visiting Iceland.

Must try black crust pizza.
Must try black crust pizza. The lookout point at Dyrhólaey panoramic views, don't miss it and of course the Black Sand beach. To visit the crashed US plane, either we can walk for 3 hours (both ways) or take shuttle which will cost ISK3000 per person.

Vik is a picturesque gem tucked along the country's stunning south coast! Reynisfjara Beach is easily accessible, where black sand meets crashing waves with towering basalt columns as the backdrop. The wind can get too strong which makes a part of the beach dangerous (sneaker waves warning), but it is still well worth visiting. The town is charming with cozy cafes (try the black crust pizza!), the locals are warm and welcoming. This town is the perfect location to embrace the opportunity to disconnect and immerse yourself in Iceland's raw beauty.

We stayed in Vik for 3 days. Totally loved it.
We stayed in Vik for 3 days. Totally loved it. It is quite a small town, but has a big supermarket (kronan), a really great quality hiking clothes/supplies store, plus a number of cafes and places to eat. We recommend Sudur Vik Restaurant especially.
We did the Katla Track ice cave tour which was amazing and left from Vik!! Also recommend Icelandic Mountain Guides Snowmobile tour - meeting point 25 mins drive from Vik. Black Sand beach is great, as is local open air pool.
We stayed in the Vik hotel which is fabulous, but as we were there for three days, I would have preferred an apartment. The hotel also operates the Vik Apartments (which I hadn't realised before I booked) - they look really good.

We based our family of 5 in Vik to explore the southern coast over 3 nights with our rental car. We found it easier to have one base rather than a different hotel each night.
We visited the Skogafoss Waterfall, Black Sand Beach, YODA caves, gorge hike, Glacier walk at Skaftafell and then onto the Glacier lagoon and Diamond Beach.
We didn’t eat out as it was expensive for what appeared average food so we went to the local supermarket and cooked back at our self catered apartment.
Vik offers lots of adventure based companies who organise tour and expeditions.
Lovely place with a view just a 10-20-minute drive away from Vik, the Black Beach and Dyrholaey. (You should have a car (or bike), though.) Everything's clean and cosy, and the surrounding area is beautiful and peaceful. If the weather's game, the deck is also a great place to just have a coffee and enjoy the view! Rather good value for money compared to other places (in Iceland). We were sorry we had to leave after two nights! The hosts were also very helpful when we asked for an earlier check-in time, which we appreciated a lot!
We stayed here for 2 nights in two rooms (2+3 people) at the end of April. The location and the view from the restaurant is just excellent. The breakfast was very good. We had one dinner that was also really good but expensive (Iceland is a really expensive country).
The rooms were good, comfortable beds, nice and helpful staff. Everybody speaks English (the staff in hotels and restaurants is from foreign countries, mainly from Poland and they speak good English).
My son and I were traveling the Ring Road. We were looking for places we could easily check in and out of and that offered breakfast. Vik is on the eastern edge of the touristy south coast of Iceland, so it can be difficult to find lodging. I recommend a good B&B like Arsalir Guesthouse when you don't absolutely need the hotel experience or can't find a hotel. They were very friendly and the breakfast was delicious.
The host was very nice. She rents out 3 bedrooms, but guests can use the Kitchen and living room. The house did not officially include breakfast, but the host had waffle batter and a waffle maker in addition to homemade treats. Smallish room but typical for Iceland. Short drive to Vik. 10 minutes drive to the popular black sand beach near Vik. Comfy mattress.
The location was quiet and pretty on the way to black sand beach and just outside of Vik. The Barn was beautiful, nice big showers and separate sink area and bathrooms. Really pretty and clean. A couple stoves to use and a few fridges, spacious enough. Would definitely recommend to anyone going to Iceland in the Vik area.
One of the cutest places we have ever stayed. The host treated us like family members. The house itself is located near the most famous beach of the Iceland,you can get there by foot. And after driving 2 hours around the Vik to see the Northern lights,we saw them in front of the house,when we came back.
Perfect! This apartment has everything we needed in a beautiful location. Easy to pick up keys at hotel right behind apartments. This is the most comfortable place we have stayed in all of Iceland. Highly recommend. Even had washer dryer that’s e weren’t expecting which was a pleasant surprise.
Vik is obviously a small town, but this was located near the little church and across the street from a supermarket and gas station. It was convenient, the hotel staff were super friendly and the food was delicious. It was pricey, but everything in Iceland seems to be.
very pastoral, surrounded by farm animals and beautiful scenery! very comfortable bed, nice kitchen and living room for your use making it one of the best guest houses we have stayed at in Iceland so far! would definitely come back again if traveling around Iceland!
Clean and comfortable. Handmade wool sweaters the cheapest we found in Iceland and the workmanship was superb. We didn't realize what a great deal it was at the time. If you're in the market for sweaters, call them! We will go there next visit to buy one there.
Hotel is in the town of Vik, the black beach, shops and some restaurants are in walking distance, it is an advantage when yuo are heading east from Reikjavik. Very friendly and helpful staff, giving the advices about Iceland.
Nice view but not excactly a "beach" view.
Exellenct location, just a few minutes drive from Vik.
This is the best room we stayed in Iceland!
Well equipped kitchen with all the essential bit like salt and pepper etc.
Excellent hotel, clean, beautiful, loved windows that opened to mountain, great staff all around, hotel desk attendant (Scottish woman) was great, dinner was amazing, lamb was best meal in Iceland, great breakfast
Lovely location close to Vik. The price was fair compared to the usual Icelandic standard. Everything was clean, we had a warm welcome from the hosts, and a nice breakfast in the morning (basic, but good)
A great hotel, very well located for exploring the areas around Vík in south Iceland. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The restaurant not only looks amazing but the food is very good as well.
Breakfast was slightly better than most hotels we stayed at in Iceland but still average. The location was convenient. Checkin was easy and smooth. The parking lot was nearly full when we visited.
Our favorite hotel in Iceland! Beautifully decorated with big windows facing north, so we were able to see northern lights even from inside our room. Big table and shower; great breakfast
Perfect location for an overnight stay in Vik. Nice location next to some stores. Dont expect too much, it covers the basics you need on a round trip in Iceland.
