Amazing location with panoramic views over the sea. One wakes up and falls asleep to the sound of the waves. The apartment is very spacious, the bedroom is a decent size too and the beds very comfortable. Parking on site. The terrace is no longer shared with the neighbours, a wooden wall has been built to divide the terrace so each apartment has their own private part.

It was the best place we stayed in Iceland so far. The whole apartment was super cozy and warm. Sleeping with the sound of the sea is amazing. While we were there there was a blizzard and we were actually happy because by being stuck we could enjoy the place more. Super recommended

    Place and people are nice,

    Place and people are nice, the right position to visit Snaefellsjokull National Park and the west of the peninsula. There are no easily accessible restaurants and shops, you have to provide all your supplies. In the hostel, you have a nice functional kitchen, refrigerator, and a small bar to buy drinking and snacks: light beverages, juices, potato chips, and smarties. To find milk, bread, and food, you have to wait for the day after, at the nearest shop with a minimum 15 km run. Once you organize yourself, life is comfortable, and friend are nice.

    Small, quiet town along the water near the tip of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. It is quite beautiful in the area with sites nearby. The location is great if you are spending two days touring the peninsula. The murals are fun to view but that's about all there is to do in the town itself.

    We were trying to find a hotel close to the Snaefellsjokull Nat'l Park. Now that we have been there, we would opt for staying on Olafsvik (with 2 restaurants for dinner) or go to other side of park at Hellnar or Arnarstapi. Hellissandur didn't have much going on, except Gilbakki Kaffihus is very nice for mid-morning snack, lunch or afternoon break. Very nice people.

    I went to climb Snæfellsjökull, a 30 year ambition. Weather was horid, glad to not be spending the next 300 year as part of a glacier. Lets say it was an exciting day and not for those without experience with Ice weapons.

    What a treat! The house itself is insolite, used to be a bar, a grocery shop and later turned into e guesthouse. Generous and homey spacing and a beautiful flow, you enter from the street to the dining room then to the bedroom and then out on the terrace overviewing the ocean. The monocular on the terrace was a welcomed add on from the hosts, they knew seals are just in front at low tide... The cold beers in the fridge were also a nice touch ;) Loved our stay!

    This was one of the most eclectic hostels I've ever stayed in. Staff were super helpful, and gave a nice tour of the hostel. Had an awesome room for bands, cool room with a ping pong table and nice large gathering room with a small bar (and a chess board). About a 10 min drive to see Saxholl Carer, and 20 min to Hellnar view point, Stone bridge and Londrangar View point. Great location. Cute town next door, Hellissandur, is the street art capital of Iceland.

    The location is just stunning! Could have stayed the whole holiday there. Great view from the privat balcony (family of seals to watch with the provided binoculars you find in the appartement). Super comfortable beds, nice equipped kitchen and all you ever need in the bathroom. If you stay in Hellisandur, go and have yourself a great dinner in the Vidvik restaurant, that makes you stay perfekt.

    Friendly staff, clean kitchen area and bathroom. Comfy mattresses and the view out of the front is great. Icelandic beer at the bar was tasty, and pleasantly surprised to find pizza and instant oats on the menu given we arrived on a public holiday when the shops were shut. Remember it's hostelling so have your earplugs! Overall, a chilled spit and sawdust stopover after a breathtaking drive.

    Staff were friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the bar and restaurant on site. Breakfast was amazing with a great selection. All hotel spaces were clean and well maintained. Staff constantly paid close attention to details to ensure all guests felt the same. This place doesn't look like much from the outside but it's a gem on the inside, and again, great staff.

    I loved everything about this place! The kitchen had more utensils than most people have at home, so many choices of board games, and all the books! Made you feel like you want to stay for a month to discover everything on the shelves! Such a great idea for an apartment! Do not miss a chance to get breakfast served by a real viking in RAM Iceland!

    So this was the best accommodation in Iceland for us. Amazing atmosphere, lots of ideas, books, messages on the walls, wonderful. The atmosphere draws you in, calms you down, it's simply wonderful, and that includes the equipment that is just right to fit into this atmosphere. And the viking (beer) in the fridge was the icing on the cake.

    Freezer Hostel has a huge living room, with musical instruments, many books, games, coffee & tea, very warm and inviting, and immediately feels like home! I even made some music with one of the staff (flute & guitar), met many great people. This is probably the best (or one of the best) hostels in Iceland.

    Beautiful, cute and quaint house. Loved staying here. Very responsive hosts. Would highly recommend! Great location to explore the peninsula. Restaurants in town were all closed for the season but we found restaurants 10 mins away and a grocery store so no problem. Loved the murals in this town also.

    amazing location, Hellissandur is peaceful and lovely, the apartment is so comfy and welcoming, there is no tv which I thought was great, I liked the records and bluetooth player, way better than a tv, the balcony overlooking the sea was just divine

    The first morning we got a breakfast box for each one and it was not very good. The second morning there were more people in the hotel and breakfast was served and each person choose what to eat, much better.
