Places to stay in Selfoss

What a wonderful place and in the perfect location for exploring the Golden Circle. The house was plenty big for the eight adults in our group, and we were all able to spread out, but also come together for meals and games. Although we didn’t use it, the hot tub was a great amenity. Our host was wonderful and very responsive when I contacted her with a question before booking and also when I needed to turn off the security system. We would highly recommend staying here.

The cabin was thoughtfully decorated. Also, a private and peaceful place close to bigger town and outdoor attractions.

We had an amazing time at Geir’s family home! This was an incredible place to spend the new year and we would absolutely return! The location is perfect. We were able to walk outside the city lights a short distance to get an amazing view of the northern lights. A designated lookout is also a short car ride away. Plus, downtown Reykjavík is a short car or bus ride away! It could also be a good walk for those who like to hike.

Great cabin, with great facilities, in a great location for exploring, and a great host too. Thanks!

I loved the room! Very warm and cozy and everything was exactly as described. Lisa was super proactive and helpful. I even got a Christmas present :) Would definitely come again.

Host was very accommodating for our check in as we arrived in Iceland on a 6am flight. Check in was smooth and the place was described exactly how it was. We felt right at home with all the amenities provided. They even provided safety gates for the stairs as we were traveling with a toddler. If you’re lucky, you could see Auroras through these beautiful glass windows (I think we were too late for Aurora season). It’s private yet accessible, with Bonus and gas stations within less than 5 minutes away. The place is ideally located for exploring the Golden Circle. We had an enjoyable stay and would definitely visit again if we are back in Iceland.

The barn house was beautifully built and decorated with spectacular views. The skylight windows were perfect for watching for the northern lights. The kitchen had all the basics and some extras like a nespresso machine and pods. We enjoyed cooking there and using the hot tub. The washer and dryer were super helpful. It was a great launching place for the Golden Circle. Stokkseyri is a cute little town with a great local pool. The turf house across the street was fun to explore as was the beach on the other side of the turf wall. It is very near Bakkahestar for highly recommended Icelandic horse rides with a local couple on the beach in Eyrarbakki. Nearby Selfoss has anything you need including an amazing fish market Fiskbud Suderlands for great prices on fresh caught local fish. Kristinn was very responsive and we loved our stay!

Stefan‘s place is absolutely and I can highly recommend it. If you are looking for peace and quiet for a few days this is exactly the right place for it. I will definitely come back
