"AMAZING. The staff were super accommodating and welcoming. I was technically late for supper, but they still provided me with THE BEST lamb dinner (sooo much food was provided, and every bite had my mouth watering). The property was beautiful, and the hot tub/sauna were perfect after a long day of traveling. Met some wonderful people who quickly became friends. Would 100% recommend to anyone passing by this area."
"Very good property, silent and good place to watch the northern lights during the season and when there are no clouds, without having to look for places away from lights"
"Love how it was a hostel, bar, restaurant all in one building. Was able to check in grabbed had some bite and a beer to relax after a long day. Was perfect."
"Álfheimar Hotel was a lovely 2 night stay for our small group. The town is small and cozy, we took a walk to the top of Alfborg and just love the ocean views. "
