The room we were in slept really hot even with the window open. Having a fan in the room would have made a difference and helped us to sleep better. Beds were comfortable.

Everything about our stay at The Herring House was wonderful from our greeting when we arrived until we left. The room was comfortable/spacious, the dining room with microwave/ refrigerator and the bathroom were all wonderful. An evening soak in the hot tub made the day. The property was very beautiful and It was walkable to grocery store/bakery/restaurants/brewery!

We loved the view from our little cottage! The cottage itself was clean, very well decorated and equiped with all the amenities we needed. A few steps from the small but charming village also. We also enjoyed the outdoor whirlpool ! The owners were very welcoming and quick to help us with our inquiries. I would definitely recommend !

We travelled in mid-September. The property was right in the town of Skadjfordur so it was great to walk around. The place is wonderfully decorated and the grounds are well kept. We enjoyed an evening hot tub while we were there. We stayed in the main building and no one else was staying in the other two rooms. I wondered how it would be to access the bathroom facilities if the building was full. There is one bathroom that has the toilet and the shower. As advertised, they have a kitchenette not a full kitchen. Parking was easy on the road. It was a restful stay. As a side note, we really enjoyed the all-you-can-eat soup at the cafe associated to the museum.

This is the best stay we had in Iceland during a 12-day trip: every thoughtful detail was considered in the private cabin we stayed in and the hosts were welcoming and wonderful. We never wanted to leave this retreat. The hot tub was filled just for us and the host brought us warm cheese and bread in the morning. Incredible view of the fjord, excellent local knowledge and tips provided (in a detailed notebook), would absolutely stay again in the cozy cabin retreat! Loved this place, highly recommend.

Their private cottage is our favorite stay on our road trip across Iceland, even compared with the other four-star hotels we stayed at. In the summer, greens and a breathtaking view of the snow mountains surround the cottage. The room is clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. The hosts are very welcoming, too. The only pity is that we could not use the outdoor shower facility, as we happened to catch a cold on our trip. Still, we wish we had stayed at this place a bit longer!

Made us feel like Íslandsvinir!!

Of the 4 places we stayed when we took our 11 day trip around the country, this was our favourite. The little cabin with the outdoor shower and hot tub was perfect. The owners - Helga and Dagur were perfect. The town was perfect. The epic beautiful falls on the edge of town were perfect. The hiking trails going up the mountain were perfect. The cute fat kitty we met when we were walking around the town was perfect. When we packed up to leave from the Herring House, my wife and I said to each other that we'd be back. Can't wait to spend more time in this beautiful town!

Wonderful Guest House -- But Only One Bathroom

The proprietor, Helga, was super-nice and helpful. She told us all about the history of the little town and what to expect on our drive around Iceland. The room was comfortable, with a truly spectacular view out the front window. But be aware: there are four bedrooms, and there's only ONE bathroom! We were fortunate to be the only couple there that night, but otherwise, contention for the bathroom would have been a hassle.

Siglufjordur and the cabin at Herring House was by far our favourite stay on Ring Road! Helga and Dagur were so welcoming, offering great suggestions for hiking, restaurants and all the attractions of the area. They were always quick to respond and also offered up great tips for viewing the midnight sun and generously filled the hot tub for us each night. The cabin was beautifully designed, super cozy and had a private location hillside overlooking Siglufjordur. We really enjoyed morning coffees and the spectacular views from the front porch. Siglufjordur was on our list originally because of Ragnar Jónasson’s novels and the Netflix tv series Trapped, but besides that it is such a charming place. We hope to be back!
