This property is very unique. Clean, organized and offers many incredible views of the beautiful landscapes.

4/10 Fair

The rooms are accessible through a steep ladder and a trap door. All rooms and the shared bathroom are extremely basic and tiny. On the bright side, the rooms are sufficiently heated and provide shelter ... and in the absence of sufficient alternative accommodation, that is worth a lot already.

A wonderful space to relax and appreciate Grimsey xx fab coffee and we had the whole house to ourselves. Anne-Marie was kind enough to let us stay until the ferry left at 4pm

A good place to stay in Grimsey...

I had a nice stay at Guesthouse Gullsól. Small but cosy and very clean room. I was afraid of the shared bathroom, but it worked well, no stress at all. A good place to stay one or two nights.

An excellent stay. We could have spent another night. It was was a memorable experience that I would highly recommend. The owner was a very helpful and congenial person.

This unique property is close to the ferry, no car needed. Puffins are everywhere in June and July! Lovely hikes. There is a complete kitchen and nice sitting area. There is a small store with limited hours and a resetaurant very close to the property. Rooms are very cozy.

The stairs are a little challenging for seniors. Can use more hooks for hanging towels and coats. Kitchen facilities are useful. Sitting room is comfortable.

My room was very cozy and comfortable. I opened my window at night and it was so nice to hear nothing but the birds singing. The guest house is very well maintained and I enjoyed talking with Anna Marie and her mother. I would like to thank Anna Marie for her help in getting back my passport which I had left in my room. I can never re-pay her for that. I hope to visit Grimsey again in the not too distant future. Thank you.

Das Bett war bequem. Das Bad funktional und nur eines vorhanden für alle Zimmer. Doppel Zimmer sehr klein. Transfer zum Flughafen wurde kostenlos für uns organisiert.

The people, location and all the friendly people helping you at every turn. What a great experience and don’t forget the unique gift shop run by the women of Grimsey and features their artisan works! Thanks to all the good folks of Grimsey!

We were lucky enough to have this place all to ourselves because we were early in the season. The owner is lovely and very accommodating. She runs the tiny cafe and store downstairs, so she is easy to access if needed. She clearly cares about this property and keeps it clean and updates things as needed (the new couches were lovely!). There are only a few options for stays on Grimsey Island, but this one is wonderful!

Frábær staðsetning í hjarta bæjarins

Frábær staðsetning, yndislegt fólk og gott að vera í húsinu. Stiginn upp á efri hæð er varasamur en að öðru leyti frábær gististaðir.

Notalegt gisting með ægifögru útsýni

Dásamleg dvöl í þessu gamla notalega húsi með ægifögru útsýni yfir fjöll og sjó. Gestgjafinn sérlega hjálplegur. Mundi klárlega gista þarna aftur ef ég færi aftur til Grímseyjar. Stiginn er svolítið brattur í húsinu og flest herbergin á efri hæðinni.

Lovely house overlooking the harbour. All I'd ask for is better blackout curtains so we could sleep during the midnight sun!
