I could stay an extra night because of the bad weather and she was kind enough to get me back on my feet to continue my road trip (driving in Iceland is quite the adventure). Best guesthouse I´ve been in!

Boasting a garden, Fjalladýrð Guesthouse is set in Modrudalur and also provides a bar and a shared lounge. Featuring a concierge service, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. The guest house also provides free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. An Unbelievable Gem at an Unbeatable Price! I was initially drawn in by the incredibly affordable rates, which led me to expect a rather basic lodging and dining experience. To my absolute delight, I couldn't have been more mistaken. The room I stayed in was nothing short of fantastic, and the restaurant left me in awe. The staff, without exception, was both incredibly helpful and genuinely friendly. However, the real gem here is the owner, who boasts an impressive depth of knowledge about the local wildlife. Every one of my numerous questions was met with boundless enthusiasm and a wealth of expertise. It's safe to say that I'm eagerly anticipating a return trip, set for the upcoming summer or fall season, in pursuit of a memorable fishing adventure. This place exceeded my expectations on every level, and I can't wait to experience it all over again.
