    cozy cabin

    clean facility
    sulfur smell
    bathroom odor

    Gesthus Selfoss was a delightful surprise! My cozy cabin was immaculately clean, complete with a kitchenette that made meal prep easy. The staff were genuinely friendly, showing me around the lovely facility that felt like a home away from home.

    Slight sulfur smell from water.

    cozy kitchenette

    This place was a great match for a swift stopover in Selfoss and good value for money. I appreciated the charming little cabin, especially the cozy kitchenette that let us whip up a quick meal. Bring your own food supplies as the nearby store is very convenient.

    cozy cottage
    welcoming owners
    private terrace
    lukewarm hot tub

    8/10

    Aye, that spot we stayed at was mad chill. Had a cozy little cottage with a kitchen and a private terrace—perfect for relaxing after a long day. The owners were super welcoming, and the vibe was just right. Wish the hot tub was warmer tho, it felt kinda lukewarm. Anyway, the whole place gave me good energy.

    spacious kitchenette
    private hot tub
    great location
    bit noisy

    The cabin we stayed in was spacious with a lovely kitchenette and private hot tub, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. The nearby Bonus supermarket made grocery runs a breeze, and the location offered a great home base for our adventures around the Golden Circle. Clean, cozy, and very inviting!

    A bit noisy.

    sulfur water
    bed comfort

    Charming little cabins, perfect for a cozy stay. The rustic feel, combined with helpful staff and a nearby grocery store, made it convenient. The water smelled of sulfur, but overall, it was an affordable and lovely experience. just wish the bed comfort was better.

    geothermal hot tub
    cozy atmosphere
    thin walls

    The geothermal hot tub delivered a nice soak, with ample seating on the wrap-around deck for relaxation. The cabin, nestled among birch trees, feels secluded even though it’s close to town, making for a pleasant and cozy atmosphere.

    The walls between units were thin, allowing easy noise transfer from neighboring guests. Despite the hot tub's appeal, it felt more like a lukewarm bath during chilly nights, hovering around an uncomfortable temperature. Additionally, we encountered an odd smell from the hot water, which detracted from the overall experience.

    Staying with our teenage kids was enjoyable! The hot tub was a big hit, and we took advantage of the lovely trails nearby for hiking. We loved the outdoor deck with a peaceful view—just perfect for relaxing after our daily adventures.

    warm bathtub
    helpful staff
    keypad malfunction
    check-in hassle
    cold weather

    Enjoyed a cozy twin room for two nights. The warm bathtub provided a perfect escape from the snow outside, and the staff was incredibly helpful, troubleshooting issues with the kitchenette and self-check-in. While the location is convenient, the keypad malfunctioning in cold weather was a bit of a hassle. Sharing the hot tub was delightful, especially being the only ones out there during the snowfall.
