Hali Country Hotel feels more like a budget motel than a traditional hotel, but it serves its purpose for a short stopover in the area. When you first arrive off the main road, you’ll see the museum, restaurant, and reception building. It’s best not to unload your bags right away when checking in, as the rooms are located about 400 meters further down the property, closer to the sea. The route to the rooms takes you past several residential-looking buildings and a commercial property. Check-in was very quick—no passport was needed. Room 13: The room was a decent size, featuring two chairs, side tables, a dresser with a chair, and a basic white cupboard. The decor was very simple: baby blue walls with white wooden furniture. It was quite warm inside, with a lovely view of the mountains. However, there were no in-room coffee or tea-making facilities—these are available in a communal building with a coffee station and shared seating area. The bed was not very comfortable—more of a limp twin setup than a proper double. There was no kettle, no shampoo, conditioner, or body lotion provided. However, a hairdryer was available. The blackout curtains were ineffective, letting in a significant amount of light at night. Bathroom: Surprisingly spacious, but there was a small window that looked directly toward a neighboring building, which raised some privacy concerns—though it did help with ventilation. Breakfast: Breakfast offered a basic selection: cold cuts (some good lamb slices

Nice Stay

Nice hotel right on the water. Very quiet, comfortable, clean, basic room but more than served its purpose. Breakfast in the morning was good with multiple choices.

I loved it here in the middle of nature. The hotel lobby had free coffee and tea I could grab any time. There is a sigular communal mini fridge in the lobby if you needed to store one or two things. Check-in was easy at the reception that was in the restaurant/museum building separate from the building with the rooms. We ate at the restaurant and I enjoyed the tender Arctic Char. A bit pricey, but nice after a long day.

Good location for locations of interest

Very good location for visiting the glacier and lagoon. Nice restaurant and included breakfast. Also included was a visit to a museum on site about a famous Iceland writer. Rooms were comfortable and had a good amount of space. Hot water takes time to heat but it’s not too long. Staff were helpful and friendly.
