Ytri Sólheimar Vacation Rentals

"The check-in went smoothly and the staff were friendly. The room was clean and the location was great for our needs. Recommend this hotel if in the area."

"Absolutely wonderful stay! The room was spotless and the bed was comfortable. The front desk and breakfast staff were kind and very helpful. Breakfast was delicious with many different options. The hot tub and sauna on site was an added plus. The hotel was a short drive from Vik’s city center and the property was serene, quiet, and beautiful. "

"Great staff, lovely location, room was really nicely appointed. "

"The room was clean, the staff were very friendly and helpful! Location is excellent! No gym and pool but there was a game room on the second floor. "

"We loved staying here on our way to the diamond beach. "

"This property was incredible and I wish we had booked more than one night here on our trip. We would have liked having one day to just slow down and enjoy the scenery and the calm atmosphere that is The Garage. Anna had fresh baked cookies for us as we arrived and it was just the most wonderful experience. The weather was wicked windy and Anna told us that we could stay until the break in the weather so we wouldn’t have to be out driving in unsafe conditions. 10/10 recommend and if/when I come back to Iceland, I WILL be staying here and for at least two nights!"

"Spacious, clean, and had everything we needed for our stay. We especially appreciated the washer and dryer after living out of a carryon for 3 weeks!"

"Friendly staff "

"This place looks like nothing from the road. Probably an farmhouse at one point. They had some nice Christmas lights on the building to cheer it up. They are maybe 5 miles (8 km) west of Vik. The road to town goes up and over, with some switchbacks, so it could be dicey for tourists in the winter if the weather is bad. I was traveling with my daughter, so the room with two beds (room #2) worked out well. I really liked this place. The young man who checked us in was friendly and effective. The room was nice and clean and quiet. We had flown in from the USA, arrived at Reykjavik at 7 am local time and spent the next 12 hours sightseeing and driving, so when we got to Volcano Hotel, we were tired. Ran into town for dinner. They leave the front door of the hotel unlocked and go home for the night, so that tells you how safe things are. There are not many other businesses or people around. The hotel has a southern view and you can see the ocean not too far way. The shower was a bit odd for an American, but I have no complaints. The water was hot and the water pressure was good. No surprise in Iceland. The bathroom was large and clean. The breakfast was the best we had in Iceland in our 4 days. Included with the room. A young man cooked us scrambled eggs to order, but the items they had out for us were excellent. (Breads, cheeses, meats, etc) The little espresso/latte/coffee machine was a nice added bonus. "
