Seljavellir Guesthouse

This place was awesome. I would never have guessed how good a place this was. I think it was recently built as everything seems so new. It was perfectly clean and a lovely modern decor. The owner/operator was so helpful and sweet. Breakfast buffet was awesome with eggs cooked to order as well as the other usual things like meats, cheeses and a variety of breads. Great coffee and tea too. Beds were comfortable.

Struttura minimalista, camere cubo una attaccata all’altra. Tastiera su cui comporre il codice per aprire la porta mal funzionante. Tutto bianco e grigio scuro. Vetri che impediscono la vista da fuori a dentro. Letto, lunga consolle bianca con 2 sedie e uno specchio (sembra una postazione trucco) un piccolo ventilatore (??) uno stender con 3 grucce. Bagno cieco e doccia con tenda. Tutto con leggeri segni di usura, ad esempio il tubo della doccia perde in vari punti. Camere acusticamente ben isolate ma molto umide. Caffetteria dove volendo si può fare colazione, 2500 Kr da pagare extra a persona, poco invitante per l’odore stantio di cibo. La mattina dalle 8 in avanti le ragazze delle pulizie iniziano a bussare per fare la camera. Alla terza volta nel giro di un’ora le abbiamo pregate di smetterla… ci hanno sbattuto gli asciugamani in mano e non sono mai più venute a pulire nonostante noi fossimo poi usciti alle 9.30. Prezzo assurdo per ciò che offre.

We were lead to believe this place was in John but was nowhere near it. The hotel is in a field up a gravel road. Looks like a barn and in my opinion is done to meet the most basic of standard expectations. Yes it has a bed, a bathroom and not much else. They say there are flat screen TVs - there are not. There are absolute basics in the room, one pillow, one towel no kettle and nowhere to get a coffee or tea and you’re in the middle of nowhere! The floor is cold and like that soft stuff they put in kids playground incase they fall over! Anyone walking past looks straight into your room. We found this place soul less to the point we almost left to find alternative accommodation but in the end just got into bed at 7pm! Oh and showers curtains are OLD!!! Breakfast was alap very ordinary. Will never recommend this place.
