Friendly staff, comfortable beds, very solid breakfast service (with separate but still great dinner service to match at the same restaurant) and an excellent location with a view onto Kirkjufell! As a bonus, Grundarfjordur's a great town with easy driving access to lots of sights and hikes.

The view outside was awesome. We had a private bathroom and use of a communal kitchen. This is a very remote area and we were grateful for the accommodation.

If you're looking for fancy accommodation with new furniture and lots of space, this may not be suitable for you. However, if you're interested in meeting locals, this is a great opportunity. Some reviews mention the smell of horses in the house, but it's not like the house is filthy; it's most likely just some rugs or shoes in the hall (if you have a dog, they're probably the first thing you smell in your hall). I should mention that our room was clean and odor-free. The kitchen is small, so I wouldn't recommend any big cooking. We spent just one night here. We cooked some pasta, took a hot shower, chatted with the house owner (a nice guy), and got some good sleep - perfect for this purpose.
Set on a farm 8 km from Grundarfjördur, this modern guest house offers a 9-hole golf course, plus free Wi-Fi and parking. Snæfellsjökull National Park is 40 minutes’ drive away.

View was outstanding, as was the breakfast. Our host offered us a cup of tea on arrival and was happy to engage us in general chit chat. The view from the bedroom offered us a chance to watch the sunset over the sea and from the breakfast room there is a panoramic view of the mountains and sea.

The view on the Kirkjufell mountain from the apartment was beautiful and from different perspective than usual. Apartment very big and comfortable. beds comfortable as well.

Grundarfjordur is a convenient town for exploring the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. It has a good grocery store and two excellent cafes for coffee & treats. A little food truck is open until the end of August. We stayed here 4 nights so we would have time to explore and I'm glad we did because one day was too stormy to see sights and another day wasn't optimal.

Destination port for cruise ships, correspondingly temporarily overcrowded. All pilgrimage to Kirkjufell (known from social media), which is accordingly overcrowded. Deterrent example of Icelandic mass tourism. :-(

Definitely not worth the extra drive time, town is not set up for tourists at all, hotel was 350 euros, which was very high compared to all other night on our trip. We spent the same, but had much better accommodations. Much more to do in the other towns

The town/village itself is really quite sweet.
The town/village itself is really quite sweet. We didn't spend much time there, but we did drive in to use the grocery store and walk around a bit. Kirkjufell Mountain is really quite stunning and one of the most recognizable Icelandic landmarks. You can just sit and look at it all day.
For such a small town, Grundarfjordur is packed with loads of hotels, guesthouses, shops and places to eat. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

This small mountain gets a lot of positive press and yes, it's kind of cool but really not all that great. We were trying to find it the last time we were here (three years ago) and drove right past it. There is a parking lot on the left as you are leaving town and you need to park and get out for the mountain to "look" like it looks in the pictures you see everywhere- with the waterfalls, etc.
There are numerous sights around Iceland that make this one look like a joke. Still...stopping for 5 minutes to get a picture or two will be worth it but you won't look back on this one and remember how awesome it was.

A gorgeous setting next to Kirkjufell Mountain!
A gorgeous setting next to Kirkjufell Mountain! It is a very convenient base for exploring the Snaefellsness peninsula. Dont miss the wonderful restaurant, Bjargarsteinn Mathus, where our meal was truly exceptional.
The loaction of Grund was perfect for our needs and as a simple guesthouse in rural Iceland we were overall very impressed with the accommodation. The staff member who checked us in was very friendly and our room was clean, comfortable and made use of shared bathroom facilities. We never had any issue getting use of them when required.
Grund is entirely self catering with no restaurant facilities but they did offer a very good kitchen area where we were able to cook our meals. Everything was very clean and ideal for what we required.
Fantastic position with views of Kirkjufell and a great big fully equipped kitchen for cooking in with crockery and utensils supplied. Our room was big and sunny and very clean. The free voucher for coffees at Valeria coffee roasters was the icing on the cake as this columbian owned cafe had the best coffee in Iceland! Super friendly and helpful hosts who helped us with information on road conditions ( which were treacherous when we visited early April).
amazing stay in the cottage. view was amazing- ocean view & kirkufell. cork floor in cottage modern kitchen & bath. perfect quiet location close to town. best restaurant in Iceland just down road; Bjargarsteinn Mathús. loved our stay in this gorgeous spot. the klakstjorn hike right x the street is a good 4 mile hike to see the gorgeous landscape is a must do! hostess Marguerite was friendly & helpful! saw the northern lights from here!!!
The atmosphere is amazing! You are looking at the Arrowhead Mountain from the Game of Thrones from your cabin! The private patio outside your own cabin is seriously an awesome place to have a meal with a great view! The cabin is comfortable and well appointed. Water pressure of the shower is awesome! It's one of our favorite places to stay, if not the top 1, of our 12 day Iceland trip.
Owner communicated well.
This was our favorite property of our 10 nights in Iceland at 8 different ones due to the size and beautiful location. We had horses on one side and water and mountain on the other and it was close to a smaller, pretty waterfall. The owner was very responsive as we were missing towels. Not sure why all the showers in Iceland are so small but that was common but this bathroom had a nice heated floor.
The guesthouse feels like a little cosy inn, and we got to meet other guests when making breakfast in the shared kitchen. The best things we like are (1) cleanliness and completeness of the small room, shower, sink, toilet and nice bed all included, and (2) a spectacular view of Kirkjufell, particularly at sunset.
The little town Grundarfjordur is quaint. We had dinner at Cafe 59 two days in a row.
It was the most amazing accommodation we had in Iceland during our 7 day trip. A room with large windows and a view directly on Kirkjufell, we even managed to see northen lights in this area, which we were happy because we did not have a chance to see it anywhere else. the shared kitchen is very well equipped, there is a town with a shop nearby, check-in was easy and hassle-free, thank you
Excellent location, facility and layout of the property. One of our best stays in Iceland and worthwhile to visit again. Only 4 minutes from the Kirkjufellsfoss and has an exceptional view of Kirkjufell Mountain from the living area.
We were also fortunate to watch the aurora right on the patio! What an amazing combination of location, property and hospitality!
Highly recommended!
During my stay in Iceland I’ve used 6 different hotels around Iceland and this is the best one, its very cozy and gave me the feeling of being home, location is good next to main attractions Kirkjufell and staff is the best, I forgot a small bag in my room and they deliver it next day to Reykjavík free of charge, Highly recommended.
Very good location if your are staying in Grundarfjordur. Rooms are very well equipped with small fridge and small cooking facility. The view from the room was spectacular with mount Kirkjufell and the see directly in front of us. We met one of the owner down stairs a very pleasant guy but otherwise no other staff.
Asthildur and Jonni are a lovely couple. Our stay in Grundarfjörður was one of the highlights of our journey in Iceland. We particularly enjoyed our exchanges and the appartement was beyond our expectations. We highly recommand Bjarg Apartments and the town has everything you may need.
Great property. It was beautiful, spacious and right in town. The hosts were amazing and so accommodating to me and my family. I cannot wait to come back. I highly recommend reserving this space for your next stay in Iceland.
Large rooms, warm and well appointed. A huge kitchen with actual ground coffee and three ways to brew some (Italian moka, French press, percolator) and great views of Kirkjufell. Also good value for Icelandic standards.
The location is just near the Kirkjufell mountain with great view
The apartment was very clean
The host was very kind and she was waiting to check us in and provided some information with very good English
I received a free upgrade from the room I booked to a large apartment. Every thing was very clean and modern. Wonderful location just outside of town with great views of the Icelandic country side.
My favorite accommodation in Iceland during my past 36 times traveling in Iceland. It's too comfortable to let you prefer staying in the villa than going outside.
