Lake Hotel Gistihusid Egisstadir was night 6 for us on our journey around Iceland’s famous ring road. This hotel was seemed a little out of the way but perfectly placed for our itinerary. There was an on-site restaurant, and many groups stayed for the night. The atmosphere was vibrant, and the guests all seemed very happy. We stayed in a ground-floor room that overlooked the countryside. It was remote and peaceful. We had a lovely evening here.

This was the most disappointing hotel of our 10 night road trip. The outside smells like cow sh*t when you drive up. The people were nice, but our room was dirty and smelled like sulfur in the morning. Would not recommend.

If you like barn smell stay here
My room smelled like the inside of a barn. The bed wasn't comfortable at all. The shower head needs to be cleaned so the water sprays down instead of all over the place. Breakfast wasn't great. They were out of several items, like eggs 5 minutes after breakfast started. Overall wasn't impressed.

The hotel is located next to the family farm on the lake. Beautiful grounds and a beautiful, inviting lobby and restaurant. We ate at the onsite restaurant and the food was innovative and delicious. The breakfast buffet the next morning was very varied, plentiful and delicious. The rooms were comfortable but small which is not unusual for Iceland. The bathroom was small as well but manageable. They have free parking which is nice. They also provide wake-up calls for the northern lights and we were fortunate to receive one. Excellent property to take advantage.
