This hotel was so lovely! The room was upgraded and spacious, with a killer view of the water (plus we were able to see the Northern Lights!). Staff were super warm and friendly, going out of their way to make our stay amazing. Plus their restaurant was super yum! Highly recommend this place.

We loved our stay at blabjorg! The apartment we stayed in was a good deal and everything (and more) we expected. There were some issues with broken lights, but quickly resolved by the very friendly staff. The included breakfast was nice, but a bit lacking in availability.

Right on the water, beautiful setting. But the turn off was the misleading advertising about the hot tub s that you must pay 4500 ISK pp to use! C’mon! Other than that, and the loud guests in the middle of the night, it was great. The brewery next door was a plus. Wish we could have stayed longer

Heavenly
We absolutely adored it here. Just a five minute drive from the Puffins and the spa downstairs was a lovely way to end our day after a wonderful meal in the restaurant. Beautiful views and comfortable rooms made for a well rested stay. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind. We were already so happy with our stay and then the breakfast spread! So many options and everything was delicious.

LOVED THIS PLACE!!!!! The rooms, food, staff view everything was incredible. I wish we stayed longer than two nights. The spa is awesome and my best afternoon was hanging out there in the hot tubs having a glass of wine. I would drive here again just to stay here (and see the puffins which are a few km up the road) our favorite stay in Iceland

Great location
Let’s start with the good things: We had whale watching from our room overlooking the fijord in that was fantastic in mid-July that was better than whale watching trips we have taken. The Puffins colony is located only a 10 minute drive down the road and are amazing so this is a great location. The Wi-Fi was great. This is obviously the best place to stay in this small remote town in northeast Iceland. They do have some spa services. The cons: It should be noted that the name on Hotels.com is Blabjorg Resort and this is the name they are moving to. However, the signs on the buildings say Blabjorb Guesthouse, and to find it on navigation apps you must put in Blabjorb Guesthouse as the “Resort” is not found or it may lead to someplace down an “F” road (dirt road in Iceland restricted to off road vehicles). The locking mechanism on the door are not intuitive and there are no instructions on how to use them. The management says this is the typical Icelandic lock but in the past week here in Iceland we have not seen this before. We were told we needed to make a reservation for dinner but after the front desk made the reservation, the restaurant could not find the reservation. The region does have a lot of flies/midges and they can get into the rooms if one is not careful about open doors or windows. In short this is a great location with views but there can be better signage/communication that would greatly improve the stay.

We stayed in one of the deluxe rooms. Our room was fantastic! It had a balcony overlooking the ocean and the room itself and the bathroom were both very large. My only complaint was that there was a charge to use the pools and hot tub. I didn’t read anywhere that there was a charge. I think it was listed as a “spa” so I guess I’m supposed to know that means there is a charge. Since the pools were listed so prominently in all of the photos I assumed it was included. The breakfast buffet was good and they had a lot of homemade items (breads and jams)that we didn’t see at some of our other hotels. Other than the pool issue our room was fantastic and it was reasonably priced for Iceland. I would have no problem returning and staying in a deluxe room.

After a very long drive and sometimes perilous conditions, we arrived at the property. Doesn't look like too much at first but the staff were very helpful and informative and when we got to the room...Wow! Wonderful and spacious, fabulous view (which we saw the next morning in the sun). The restaurant offered a variety of choices, tasty food and excellent breakfast the next morning :) . The only I wish this (and other properties) would do, is offer the facilities without such a high additional cost.
