The Malarhorn Guesthouse was a lovely spot to spend the night. Very nice room (and big!), very friendly and helpful staff, good food in the restaurant in a tiny little town. We could have happily stayed a few more days.

Small remote place that has amazing views of the mountains and oceans. About a half a K down the way are three free 24/7 natural spring hot tubs. We drank beers there after dinner with the captain of the whale watching boat and his wife it was great. Food and staff were as well.

Lovely location and excellent restaurant. Wish the boat trip to see puffin and other birds was running earlier in June when we were there (doesn’t start until June 15th). Also need curtains or something more than a window shade to cover windows during 24 hr daylight. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return!

Malarhorn Guesthouse

We arrived late after traveling several hours and found 1 room easily. The other room was a shared space and was finally found after asking another guest for help. The rooms were quiet, comfortable and wifi was available so we could plan for the next day. We had a delicious breakfast the next morning.

This was my best room so far in Iceland of 5 nights traveling around to a different location each day. Delicious halibut dinner. Top quality. Staff were eager to help & friendly. Gave me excellent tips for viewing Aurora Borealis. Saw them from midnight to 1 am. While having breakfast, watched humpback whales spouting & breaching in the distance. New & super clean public hot poos beside accommodations. I had the pool & hot tubs to myself I would highly recommend this place!!!

Unexpected find

This place was terrific. We booked late and there wasn't much available at all, so we were a little early. But the place was perfect. A lot of room, v good food, and the hot pools right on the ocean just a block away were great. And do book the boat to Bramley Island. Thousands of puffins a very short ride away.
