Alfheimer is a gem on the east coast. We decided to stay another night. The staff is very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Accommodations were perfect with a comfortable bed and great tasting food. The locally brewed beer is delicious as well. All around a wonderful experience. Should we ever come back to Iceland we will be back here.

Álfheimar Hotel was a lovely 2 night stay for our small group. The town is small and cozy, we took a walk to the top of Alfborg and just love the ocean views.

This is perfect for puffin watching(7 min drive). The northern lights are right outside the room or the hotel. Thats how dark it is next to the hotel. The breakfast was very good. The views around the hotels itself are very good. Staff is friendly and helpful, the receiptionist gave us tips on hiking etc

We arrived late, about 9:45 pm, and they made sure to wait for us, got us taken care of quickly and showed us to our room. The included breakfast was a decent variety and got us going in the morning. It was a short stay but enjoyable and we would definitely stay there again.

Just OK

The place was fine, however we did not receive the room type that we had booked. Also when we arrived to the room, one of the beds was not made, and the comforter was just crumpled up on top of the bed which made us wonder if the room had been cleaned at all before we arrived. The manager/owner did give us some money back the next day, so that was nice. Breakfast was ok. Location was excellent, really close to the harbor where you see the puffins, which is why we stayed there.

The room was clean and the staff were nice, but it felt way overpriced for what was essentially a very basic room. The overall atmosphere was more like campground lodging. The room was dark, and the toilet paper was the kind you’d find in public restrooms, where you have to pull out one piece at a time. There was no kettle for hot water in the room, so if you wanted tea or hot water you had to walk to the main building — very inconvenient on a rainy day.

Property is in a beautiful setting and is in nice shape. The dining room is a nice feature, although it seems vastly overpriced for what they offer. Breakfast was fine but nothing special. All in all, it's a fine place, but we expected a bit more.

Great place to stay to see the puffins. only 5-10 minute drive away to the puffin island....and there were hundreds of them! THe hotel looks a lot better in person than the pics...pretty modern room. also has a laundry facility that seems unheard of in Iceland. Highly recommended.

It's cozy, room was nothing too special but totally fine for 4 of us (we had the room with 5 twin beds). We enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was pretty good and included. I had read another review where someone said they ran out of food by 8:30 (it's served 6-9) but there seemed to be a lot of guests when we stayed (parking lot completely full) and yet plenty of breakfast. I arrived to breakfast at 8:30, my wife and kids actually got there by 8:55 and the staff was kind and let them eat too. Great stay.
