Raudafell 1

This was a guesthouse where we were greeted by the owner as we drove up. She showed us our room, which was clean and comfortable. She also made wonderful pancakes for breakfast for everyone, it felt like a family meal. I would recommend to anyone wanting something other than the sterile hotel room experience.

The moment I walked in I felt I was at home. However, what made the experience is the host in the morning. Over coffee, I had a good conversation with the proprietor and he absolutely set my day off on the right foot. He was telling all about his personal experiences with the Eyjafjallajökull volcano and showed me a book and some personal photos. I also was able to ask some questions about like in general in the Skógafoss area. He also has the most friendly border collie a person could ever know. I delayed leaving in the morning because I so enjoyed the company plus the information.Please, if you are driving the south coast or the ring road, stop here for great conversation, and a homey feel. I have already decided that when I return to Iceland, I will make a point to stay here again. My favorite guest house I stayed in during my time in Iceland. Also, checking in is easy-you can come in at any time and they are ready. The breakfast with homemade pancakes was great! At least the night I was there, the guests were quiet but friendly in the morning. There are games and books available as well, and great views of the ocean and fields and mountains and Vestmannaeyjar island. And truly local advice. Thank you for the wonderful experience!!!!!

We loved our stay here and were in awe of the views! The host was lovely and helpful and made us a delicious pancake breakfast. We hope to come back some day!

Amazing location, close to Skogafoss and Solheimajokul a 40 minute drive to Vík. Great views.

Absolutely loved this place ! The views were amazing , the host was super friendly and it was located just a short distance from several attractions.

Nice cozy little place in beautiful settings with a very kind and service minded host. Simple but nice breakfast and easy check in. I could stay there again!

Clean and big room, good place to see the northern lights.

The Raudafell 1 was our first night stay in Iceland. It is centrally located to view the area waterfalls n iconic DC-3 on the beach. Carla made us feel at home by preparing pancakes (breakfast) for the folks staying at the Guesthouse. We also learned about some history of Iceland before she had to makeready for the new arrivals. Great stay!

It is clean, warm, comfortable and close to town centre. We enjoyed a good stay here.

1st night in Iceland

We loved our two night stay at Raudafell Guest House! It's set up more like a bed and breakfast with shared bathrooms, kitchen, living space, and breakfast (pancakes, yogurt, toast, ham, hard boiled eggs, etc.) included. There was an issue with our booking that we realized the day of and so I called the hotel to see if they accommodate our request. Heida was so great and moved things around to allow my friend and I to have two beds instead of one, which we REALLY appreciated. We moved some of the furniture around to fit our needs, but we were able to get around with two of us and a lot of luggage. Heida lives just across the street and is the one that owns, takes care of the guest house, and makes breakfast. She was helpful with information about the culture and the surrounding area. The house was updated and clean, very comfortable to stay in! Free parking and wifi. Only two bathrooms for about 7 rooms, but we didn't have any issues with access to them due to people getting up and leaving at different times. Just a few minutes from Skogafoss Waterfall, which was one of the things that we wanted to see. This is the perfect place if you want to see the sites on the southeastern part of Iceland! I would go back there if I ever returned to Iceland.

Comfortable Bed and Breakfast

This is THE most perfect little place to stay if you’re coming from the golden circle and going to Vik/Black Sand Beach/Hofn etc. The hostess greeted us on our arrival and was very nice. The breakfast in the morning was sandwiches/cereal/skyr. The ONLY negative thing is that because you’re sharing a bathroom some of the other tenants can be rude and hold up the bathroom for an hour or 2 *insert huge eye roll* ... otherwise this is the most perfect place with amazing morning views! We stayed in the 6th room which has a breath taking morning view of the mountains! Highly recommend this little find!!!

The owners of the guesthouse we're exceedingly friendly and cordial.  However, the first night a couple were cooking some strange lamb stew that made the downstairs smelly.  I think the other guests could have refrained from frying weird food.
