Hólmur Farm

Our trio booked the warm and cozy cottage, with its own parking, 2 comfy bedrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen, spacious dining room and lounge, speedy Wi-Fi and private deck, from where we viewed the northern lights (don't forget the key!). The accommodation was immaculate. The shower drained slowly, but we were forewarned of the issue. The breakfast buffet was varied and hearty; don't miss the homemade lamb pâté and jams! We found Hólmur Farm to have the most beautiful view while having breakfast in Iceland. The owners were genial. We enjoyed our peaceful stay, near Höfn, and would happily stay again, but for a longer duration, when Jón Ríki is open!

The check in time was a window of 2 hours! From 5 pm - 7 pm. The network in Iceland is very patchy yet we found a way to call them because we were running late. They did not receive the call. We called hotels.com and informed them of the situation but they couldn't reach them around 8 pm either. We decided not to make the 1 hour detour to go to a hotel that probably isn't even open. We disputed the transaction but our credit card company couldn't do anything since this was a non-refundable booking. Their INFLEXIBLE check in time and terrible customer service makes this the worst place I have ever booked.

Such friendly staff, right off the ring road. Enjoyed soup for dinner and a lovely Icelandic breakfast.

Great place!

A nice farm with a friendly family hosting

a unique experience staying at a farmhouse. very quaint, super friendly host, nice breakfast. highly recommend

Nice stay but overpriced

Not nice people

Nous avons passé une nuit à Hólmur Farm, idéalement situé entre Skaftafell et Höfn, dans un cadre calme et avec une vue splendide sur le glacier. L’environnement paisible nous a permis d’observer des aurores boréales, ce qui a rendu notre séjour unique. L’accueil a été agréable, bien que nous ayons ressenti un léger manque de chaleur de la part des hôtes le lendemain notamment lors du petit déjeuner. Cet hébergement accueillant de nombreux visiteurs, l’ambiance peut devenir bruyante, notamment en raison des salles de bain communes et de certains hôtes peu soucieux de la vie en communauté. Malgré ces points, le cadre et le calme environnant ont fait de ce séjour une belle expérience. Nous aurions apprécié un peu plus de sympathie des propriétaires pour rendre ce lieu encore plus chaleureux.

Cadre agréable tres calme. Propriétaires accueillants. Petit déjeuner extra compris dans le prix. Possibilité de manger une soupe dans leur restaurant .

Nous avons trouvé l'endroit très calme. Les gens étaient très gentils et aidants! Nous avons apprécié le déjeuner inclus. La cuisine était toutefois assez rudimentaire. Malgré tout, l'expérience a été agréable!

Il signore alla reception che è dentro il ristorante Jon Riki ci ha accolto un'ora prima. Non parla bene inglese, ma molto gentile. Per cena potevi prendere quantità illimitata di 3 zuppe (una era vegetariana, una di agnello con vegetali, una di pesce). Buona colazione con frutta, cose dolci e salate

Very nice guesthouse. I felt at home immidiately. Highly recommend not just because of the nearby glaciers.

Ein Gästehaus auf der Gelände der Farm, dort war mein Zimmer. Ich hatte das Haus für mich alleine und auch sonst war es sehr ruhig. Super Frühstück in der Küche aufgebaut für mich

Molto gentile la tipa (probabilmente la proprietaria) che ci ha accolto per il check-in, con cui abbiamo fatto anche due chiacchiere. L'ambiente e' molto rustico (ovviamente) ma non spartano, abbiamo dormito in quella che probabilmente e' stata una stalla, ora ristrutturata e abbastanza accogliente. Avere la vista sul pollaio probabilmente non e' il massimo, ma dopotutto siamo in una fattoria... :) La cucina in condivisione si trovava separata in un altro edificio a pochi metri (con altre stanze), piccola e molto poco accessoriata, ma per una pastasciutta e' andata piu' che bene. Ottima la colazione inclusa nel prezzo, il buffet e' ricco di frutta (anche esotica), formaggi, salumi, e le consuete brioches con marmellate fatte in casa, crema spalmabile, succhi di frutta, eccetera. Ottima ospitalita' e rapporto qualita'/prezzo. Consigliato.

Insgesamt war es ganz schön auf der Farm. Die Gastgeber waren sehr nett und hilfsbereit, das Zimmer sehr sauber und die Betten sehr bequem. Leider fehlte es in dem Zimmer an Aufhängemöglichkeiten extra für Handtücher. Im Gemeinschaftsbad gab es auch keine Haken und die Duschbrause war nicht zu befestigen. Das Essen im Restaurant war super, das Frühstück durchschnittlich und der Gesamtpreis aufgrund der Lage angemessen, im Vergleich zu anderen Unterkünften aber etwas überhöht.

It was a nice accommodation with very friendly staff. We liked staying there but found it very expensive.

Sijainti lähellä jäätikköä. Maisemat kauniit. Ravintola oli hyvä.
