Our cabin was lovely, really warm, well equipped, nicely furnished. The location is spot on. The Cowshed Cafe was fantastic - the breakfast was delicious with lots of home made breads and cakes etc. We ate dinner there too which was equally delicious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and found... More

The rooms are spacious with comfortable beds and high ceiling. Breakfast is excellent and served in "the cowshed café" with fantastic views of the lake and a barnyard. The only downside is that the walls are a bit thin and that the curtains doesn´t cover the windows enough to make the room dark at night.

We spent one night here. Arrived after a very long drive quite late after the restaurant/ cafe was closed. But seeing we had a baby with us, the hosts were very considerate and arranged to pack dinner for us and some fruits for the baby which we took with us to our rooms. Very helpful and friendly staff...and very comfortable... More

The Vogafjos Guesthouse at lake Myvatn, near Akureyri is a fabulous place. You have a lovely warm self contained wooden cabin which is modern, spacious, well furnished and with a great shower. Underfloor heating makes it really comfy. Food is served at the Vogafjos Cowshed Cafe (really a good restaurant, not a cafe) where you can see the cows in... More

We spent one night in March at the guesthouse - which should be called a hotel. The rooms are cosy "wooden houses" with floor heating. The room was warm and clean and the bathroom well equipped (hair dryer and so on). Only issue was that the WiFi was very weak, and that they advertised that you could get to see... More

We stayed here for one night in February. Checked in at a busy Cowshed Café, was quick, simple, and straight forward. Locating our accommodation was fun (accommodation is separate to reception) and once in, was a pleasure to relax in. Under floor heating, plenty of space in the room, can park directly outside, made even more brilliant by having no... More

The rooms are nice, clean rooms with tea and coffee facilties, no tv. Looked like there was only three couples there, they put us all next to eachother and unfortunatly we were in the middle cabin. No noise barrier so we heard every single thing each couple were doing, conversations,walking around. We didnt get to sleep until really late as... More

If this was in the US or mainland Europe it probably would have been a lower rating, but given the area and what it normal accomodations around Ring road, this was a decent choice for a night in Myvatn. The location is right in the middle of Myvatn's many natural attractions which made it convenient. It's restaurant, the Cowshed Cafe,... More

It was very pricey to stay in Myvatn but this was the best option for us. The room was nice and clean but very small for the four of us. The wifi didn't work in our room. The staff was very friendly and helpful telling us about what to see in the area. The included breakfast buffet was great. Try... More
