Reviews of Lindartún Guesthouse

The location near Iceland's South Coast and ferry was pretty good, and the reason I picked it over other accommodations. Our unit had a private bath joining our room. Some rooms shared a bath. Coffee was provided to be self made in the public area.

The room was too small to set up two suitcases. We constantly had to step over our bags. No one from the hotel was on site to answer questions, especially about kitchen items, like where to find paper towels and condiments. No daily maid service. Soap and shampoo were in plastic packets that were hard to open with wet hands in the shower. Like European old style, the bed mattresses were two twin size mattresses with a gap in the center.

Beautiful location! My room was cute and had everything I needed.

Quiet house in the countryside, Midgard restaurant nearby is awesome + convenient. Good cost-friendly stop on the south coast.

Funky check-in process (not quite clear what to do) + bathroom smelled like mold

Loved having the little cottage to ourselves. It had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable.

We were hoping to sign up for breakfast but were told on arrival that it was too late to make arrangements the night before. This was not a dealbreaker because the grocery was only 10 minutes away and there were ample pots/pans. Just be aware that you must make arrangements in advance (and that was not an option through Booking.com !) Also shampoo would have been nice.

Price, super quiet

On the outskirts , have to drive 6-7 miles to get to the restaurant closest to eat. Pretty basic facility, but nice owners and super quiet.

Very clean and quiet

The location was nice and the facility was super clean. There was no staff anywhere though and the mirror in the bathroom was so high that I couldn’t even see myself. I’m only 5 foot three. They need to adjust their mirrors for people of all heights. That royally sucked.

The whole property is well kept and well decorated.

They have very strict rules about using the kitchen, which i can understand, but at the same time the way they communicate them are borderline harsh

We had a private bungalow to ourselves with full kitchen that we were able to make our own dinners. A large Smart TV that we were able to log into our Disney+ and PrimeVideo to enjoy while it was raining

It is little more to drive to popular attractions but worth it!

Very nice and well kept property. We had lovely stay in the middle of nowhere

Nothing

Location is out of the way and nice.

No complimentary breakfast

We had a lovely, comfortable small cabin.

Everything is far away but we knew about it so it was not a problem.

Horses outside

Breakfast was too $$

Beautiful and peaceful setting.

The view was great and the Icelandic horses in the front yard were a real bonus. The kitchen area was clean and well appointed. Additionally the breakfast options were very nice.

The shower was very small. It worked for a small to average person but my husband is a big man, 240, 6.2, and could not turn around inside it. The toiletries were sparse as well.

We stayed in the private cabin and it was wonderful! The cabin had everything we needed for a relaxing stay after hiking. The kitchen was stocked with all of the essential cookware, dishes, and supplies to wash dishes. We loved the adorable Icelandic horses grazing outside the cabin!!

It is clean home stay.

The room is too small. Not very friendly to cook.

Location. Quiet country side area

We were a group of four friends. The room was labeled family room however there was only one single bed and a sofa in the same room. When we arrived the owner open the room and we saw the arrangement. She was rather rude saying that we had to make by ourself the sofa into a sleeping bed. There was no free space to walk around the room. The heating was off . It was like we walked into a trap or a prison. An unfortunate experience 😕 for the few hours we spend there.

Clean, good breakfast (except that there was no skyr)

The staff helped us with a car problem before we left.

The room was clean, well appointed, and quiet. The kitchen area had plenty of dishes, pots, pans, etc. to prepare a meal. There was a shared kettle in the eating area.

Our bathroom smelled of sewage, and the door separating it from our main room was a sliding “barn door” style door, meaning the bathroom couldn’t really be sealed off from the rest of the room. This meant the whole room had a faint sewage smell. The barn door was also hard to open/close, so using the bathroom at night meant waking everyone in the room(but we couldn’t just leave it open because of the smell.) The kitchen “rules” were a little annoying and I don’t recall them being mentioned until after we booked. We weren’t allowed to use the kitchen in the morning due to breakfast service. This was a separate fee of $22 each that was only served from 8am to 9:30am. I think it was a typical Icelandic continental style breakfast of breads, cereals, cold cuts, a little fruit, and a waffle bar. Had the meal been offered earlier, we probably would have paid for it, but we needed to leave earlier than 8am. We felt like we had to sneak around the kitchen at 6am to make coffee. Allowing guests to use the kitchen before 7am seems like a possibility, or providing a separate area with a kettle, a toaster, and a few plates/mugs would be very nice.
