Nice place with clean rooms. We arrived in the evening in rain and fog, then in the morning were amazed by the view of the Glacier across the road!

Really enjoyed our stay in & around Hofn/Stokksnes, as Lilja offered a convenient location for our day’s itinerary. It felt like staying in a modern & updated farmhouse with all of the comforts of home. Staff were friendly & attentive. Breakfast was really good, offering both hot & cold options. Great before a day’s adventure.

The confirmation email says to inform the property if arriving after 8pm, but it turned out to be unnecessary. The reception is in the restaurant building right next to the room building, and it opens till 9:30pm. The room is clean, but has no mini fridge nor packs of coffee or tea. There is a thermo with coffee in the “lobby” area but has no stir. We were at the end unit, there was a constant dripping noise from the exterior wall through the night. My husband finally had enough and got up to see what that was. He came back laughing. There was a goat lying by the exit glass door, he was panting and the horn kept bumping the door making that noise. The glacier view was nice. Too bad in the morning, the fog/cloud covered it up.

This place is a hidden treasure! We booked because we were looking for an affordable place not far from the glacier lagoon. Price was great, and we had a truly breathtaking view of a glacier from our room and lots of cute sheep in the fields nearby. One of the most beautiful places we stayed in Iceland. Buffet style breakfast was included (with more stunning views from the restaurant area). They have a restaurant and bar on site but we went into Höfn for dinner, about 20 minutes away by car, and hotel staff provided us with excellent recommendations.

The room was lovely but let down by the reception/ breakfast area. Very dull and un inviting . Staff were very unhelpful , my partner wasn’t well & they didn’t offer any support. On arrival they weren’t very friendly . No yogurt available at breakfast . If the room hadn’t been nice we wouldn’t have stayed .

Lilja Guesthouse is such a great value for what you pay. The complimentary breakfast is very nice, and the dinner I had (avocado burger) was delicious. The rooms are spacious for what you pay, and are very clean. The property is very contemporary and minimalistic, which is very nice to see, with automatic doors so you don’t have to struggle when bringing luggage in. It’s situated right off the main road, but very quiet and calm. The wildlife surrounds the property and we were even able to see a sweet herd of sheep just laying out early morning next to the hotel. Friendly staff and wonderful experience overall. Would stay again.
