    This guesthouse is conveniently located near Höfn, making it easy to access amenities and restaurants. The farmhouse is clean and well-designed, with modern bathrooms that include rain showers. The host is helpful and accommodating, providing tips on local activities and restaurants. The views from the guesthouse are stunning, and there is a hot bath and ice lagoon nearby. The beds are comfortable, and there is ample parking available.

    The only downside is the lack of wifi, which can be inconvenient for travelers who rely on network data.

    I had an amazing 16-hour stay at Setberg Guesthouse. The location was like a dream, with picturesque views of glaciers and mountains from my window. The hot pools and wetlands nearby were breathtaking, and I even got to see some adorable fluffy sheep. The rooms were beautifully renovated and spotlessly clean, with a well-equipped kitchen and complimentary coffee and tea. The host was friendly and allowed us to explore the stunning surrounding land. Highly recommended for a memorable and comfortable stay!

    Can recommend this hotel.

    Setberg Guesthouse was a hidden gem nestled at the end of a glacier. The location was simply breathtaking, with geothermal hot tubs nearby and easy access to the glacier. The views from the guesthouse were absolutely stunning. The host was incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome. The guesthouse itself was clean, cozy, and recently renovated. We wish we could have stayed longer to fully enjoy this exceptional escape. I highly recommend Setberg Guesthouse for an unforgettable stay.

    I had a great stay at a guesthouse near Höfn. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the owner even checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. The location was beautiful, and we even had the opportunity to feed orphaned lambs on the farm. I had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend this guesthouse for a stay in the area.

    Working sheep farm by the mountains with waterfalls and glacier views. Spotlessly clean, freshly painted rooms. Adequate kitchen with calming glacial delta view. Close to essentials, restaurants, glacial lagoons, and national park. Friendly owner, wifi could be improved.

    We had a wonderful stay at Setberg Guesthouse. the room and facilities were spotlessly clean and modern, with a completely new bathroom featuring a rain shower. the kitchen provided everything we needed for breakfast, including milk, cornflakes, yoghurt, and coffee. the host was incredibly friendly, helpful, and nice, making us feel at home. the location is perfect, with stunning views of the plains towards Höfn and the Hoffellsjökull glacier. We even had the opportunity to hike to a spectacular waterfall/rock formation right on the property. Cons: Everything is exactly what I needed and wanted. 🌟.

    The guesthouse was conveniently located near several popular sights and attractions, making it easy to explore the area. The rooms were modern and clean, with comfortable beds for a good night's sleep. I also appreciated the friendly and helpful staff, who provided great recommendations for dinner options.

    The lack of blackout blinds on the windows made it difficult to sleep during the night, especially in May when it stays light outside. Additionally, it would have been helpful to have a signpost from the main road to the property, as it was a bit challenging to find the guesthouse initially.
