By far, the best of B&Bs we have stayed at on a 5 week vacation in the UK, Belgium, France and Iceland. All six were very good to excellent and in our opinion, a much better deal than hotels. What make Minnna-Mosfell so much better? **The country of Iceland and its people to start. Everyone we met are friendly and... More

We stayed here back in mid March, just taken a while to get round to reviewing but I had to backup what everyone else says; this place is amazing and Gudrun and Valur are the perfect hosts.. The fresh baked goods are as good as people say, the rooms are lovely, the shared facilities are great and the kitchen is... More

Iceland is a magical place. Reykjavik is a fantastic city but the real treat is all the surrounding lands. Minna-Mosfell was a perfect commute to the city but placed right where you want to be - on the frontier of the rolling countryside. The reviews describing the hosts' care and character are spot on. We expect to return to Iceland... More

Our family of five had a wonderful four nights at Minna-Mosfell. We stayed in two rooms, and found the facilities clean and comfortable. But the highlight was the hospitality of our hosts Gudrun and Valur. They were extremely friendly and helpful, and made us feel very welcome and well cared for. We received very useful advice to help us on... More

Minna-Mosfell was wonderful place to stay in Iceland! The hosts are so warm and kind and are very helpful in planning your own Icelandic adventures. Their home has beautiful horses and is located off of the Golden Circle. The rooms were adorable and the breakfast was the most delicious treats to wake up to every morning.

Very nice people, running this guesthouse. Although facilities are excellent already, they decided to improve the guesthouse even more. In april they will built a hot tub and start renovating the common area. Location is brilliant. Just outside the bigger cities but still in a rural area!

It is difficult / impossible to find anything new to say about Gudrun, Valur, and Minna Mosfell. They were great - so helpful, friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. Minna Mosfell is great - comfortable, warm, ample supplies, including freshly made bread, freshly made desserts, cakes. It is in a great location - away from the lights and bustle of Reykjavik, with... More
