Pendant la tempête, a vivre

Nous étions fin mai 2023! Si vous arrivez tôt, vous aurez la chance de vous poser en hauteur sur la butte avec une vue magnifique sur le lac!
En revanche, les douches sont communes et ce n’est pas vraiment l’idéal! Surtout qu’elles sont vetustes!

Did not stay but had lunch and visited the lava field.

Nice room with an excellent view. It's even better to enjoy the jacuzzi with beautiful night sky and aurora borealis.

Trabajadora muy desagradable. Hubo una tormenta en la que nos cortaron carreteras durante un día entero, nos quedamos atascados en egilsstadir. Y la anfitriona no quiso devolvernos el dinero, ni siquiera la parte proporcional del desayuno. Otros si que les devolvieron el dinero al ser culpa del tiempo.

He tenido muy mala experiencia sin ni siquiera alojarme,ya que por causas climatológicas de mal temporal,nieve,viento....cortaron las carreteras de acceso al Hotel teníamos que pasar para alojarnos.
Después de avisar con antelación para cancelar la habitación x dichas causas ,no nos contestan al correo.
Había mucha gente en la misma situación en el mismo sitio y lo tuvimos complicado para podernos alojar.
Y al día siguiente me mandan un correo diciéndome que x no avisar me tienen que cobrar igual la habitación e incluso que podría tener recargo.
Osea que muchas gracias x no contestarme a mí correo cuando lo mandé, que fueron bastantes horas antes y x vuestra hospitalidad por razones que no se pueden evitar.
Ha habido gente en la misma situación y en otros hoteles les han abonado el importe total de la habitación ,y sintiendo lo sucedido!!! ( que creo que era lo correcto)
Espero que aprendan y no le pase esto a nadie más!

מלון מקסים במיקום מעולה (איזור מושלם לצפיה בזוהר הצפוני כיוון שמרוחק מזיהום אור).
חדרים קטנים, מאוד נקיים ונעימים, מקלחת נקייה.
חניה צמודה לחדרים.
צוות נעים ואדיב בצורה בלתי רגילה.
ארוחת בוקר מעולה ועשירה שכללה לחמים ומאפים חמים.
ממליצה מאוד.

Overall, Hlid Camping and Guesthouse is a great place to stay while exploring Iceland. It offers excellent facilities at an affordable price point and is located in a beautiful area with plenty of activities to do nearby. The campsite has good facilities for tents and trailers, with electricity and warm showers available for guests

Everything’s good except the bed‘s very cranky. Every small move‘ll make a sound.

Good location if you want to stay close to Myvatn. Has a supermarket and a beer shop nearby - they close at 19:00 and 18:00 respectively, so be mindful of that.
There was no rain when we arrived, so it was easy to go up the road to the parking spots. If there was any rain it would be very slippery for the cars.

Un buen camping para ir después de mytva por la cercanía, las instalaciones muy limpias y la recepcionista muy amable. La zona de la cocina en tienda es muy fría pero los baños están súper aclimatados y tienen un tendedero dentro que se agradece mucho.

La cabaña más adorable que he visto nunca. Parecía de revista, muy bien cuidado. Forma parte de un camping y tienen diferentes tipos de cabañas repartidas por la zona. Nosotros éramos 4 y estuvimos perfectamente. Había un jacuzzi fuera, aunque nos dimos cuenta justo antes de irnos, pero estaba vacío sin agua, por lo que nose si está en uso. Vistas al lago Myvtn, y zona ideal para ver las auroras. Unas cristaleras increíbles para también poderlas disfrutar incluso desde el sofá.

Ich habe eine der kleinen Hütten für 1 Nacht gebucht und exakt das bekommen was beschrieben war: eine Übernachtungsmöglichkeit ohne Schnick Schnack, Sanitär war am Campingplatz zur Mitbenutzung vorhanden (warm & vor allem sauber!). Es gibt ein Küchenzelt was auch mitbenutzt werden kann, da ich da nicht war kann ich auch kein Urteil darüber abgeben. Die Hütte war klein aber für 1 Person ausreichend, zu zweit wird es mit Gepäck aber sehr eng da es keine Schränke oder sonstige Ablagemöglichkeiten gibt. Wasserkocher und Lampe ist die mehr oder weniger einzige Ausstattung neben Bettwäsche und Handtuch was ebenfalls gestellt wird. Ein kleine Terasse rundet die Ausstattung ab, allerdings ist die wohl nur nutzbar im Winter wenn einen die Mücken nicht umschwirren (der See heisst nicht umsonst Mückensee)...
Für mich war es ok für 1 Nacht, allerdings ist das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis nicht ok (~150€ für 1 Nacht), die Betten sind wirklich schmal, weder Tür noch Fenster schliessen dicht, Aussicht ist von den Hütten aus praktisch nicht vorhanden da die Hütten zu niedrig liegen... Hinzu kommt dass die Hauptstrasse nicht weit entfernt ist und man doch vor allem LKW recht laut hört - zum Glück ist die Strasse in der Nacht kaum befahren. Für einen Übernachtungspreis im 2 stelligen Bereich würde ich sicher wieder buchen, zum Preis den ich gezahlt habe eher nicht.

In general the place is good, kitchen, bathrooms and showers were fine. The biggest problem unfortunately is the most important, the room. There is no separation between the beds, this means there is no privacy but mainly you cannot sleep when the light in the next bed is on. Look my roommate backing up his photos at 1am, and isn’t his fault.

A curtain would help. The lamps are unnecessarily very strong, why not weaker and more focal lamps? It’s compromised my entire night.

Great hostel.... very clean and lovely location.

I would definitely come back. The dining room is delightful amongst the Lava.

The beds were incredibly noisy..... you felt guilty for every movement as they kept everyone awake. This was true in room 5.

Bare bones Hostel, which is overpriced for its standard because it has a virtual monopoly on being the only ‘cheap’ accommodation in the area. Unless you are camping at Hild which is cheaper. I booked direct with bedding as an extra which was just over £49 for one night. Had to go to the separate Hild reception building to book in & pay on arrival where you get your key to the room & you get given your bed number. I wasn’t keen on the bed configuration here, no dividers, so if you happen to be tall you may end up brushing feet with the person sleeping at the other end. Personally, I wasn’t keen on the central ladders to the bunks either, as you could easily be disturbed or disturb somebody else who is sleeping. The kitchen is basic but functional. The showers look as if they have been relatively recently updated. But you have 13 rooms of 4 bunks = 52 people and only four showers. Good job I was up at 5am, otherwise there may have been a queue for them. There was a slight smell of sulphur using the hot water, not a problem, it wasn’t overpowering. Eating area is pretty cool to be fair with its view of the lava field. Check in is between 5-8pm only.

Las instalaciones son pésimas. Un precio elevadisimo para los servicios que ofrece.
Las fotos no corresponden con la realidad. Todo está muy deteriorado. Llevamos viajando una semana por Islandia y hay otras ofertas hoteleras muchísimo mejores y al mismo precio.
Visited in september 2023
No vengo a decir más que lo que han dicho otros usuarios...el precio es desproporcionado para lo que ofrecen: habitaciones estrechas en un barracón de mala muerte, colchones de papel de fumar, un par de duchas (que gracias al cielo han arreglado hace poco), un par de wc si uno de ellos no está atorado, cocina con los utensilios justos y un comedor de buen tamaño si no está alojado un bus 4x4 de checos (acostumbra a estar lleno al no haber mucha oferta y tanta demanda).
Con esos precios han amortizado la inversión en dos meses de funcionamento...una vergüenza esa explotación al turista

Nice cozy cabins. There were bathrooms and showers on site. The only minus about this place that there was flys all over the camp ground so you couldn't enjoy the beautiful view outside.

Nicely organized cottages. There is a common kitchen where guests can cook and clean after themselves. Bathrooms and showers are clean. Heaters are set to very hot temperature. We ended up opening our window for fresh air.

Für 1 bis zwei Tage ist es ok. Gutes Frühstück und im Hostel daneben kann man auch kochen. Die Mücken sind die Hölle...

typowy hostel na jedną noc

Bien dans l'ensemble ! Par contre les chambres ne sont pas grandes et l'insonorisation est pas top. Sinon très propres et dépaysant en plein milieu des champs de lave ! Le petit déjeuner est très bien ! On a appréciés les croissants et les petites crêpes miam !

We stayed in hut number 3 and 4 and unfortunately it was not a good experience (of course this can be different for everyone but this was our experience).
Our huts were small, which we were expecting and they each had two beds and a kettle to boil water. There is also a heater in each, which are only hot at the top and the middle and bottom of the heaters were ice cold.
The huts in general were not insulated well enough, as there was wind blowing through the room (windows and door closed). When it rained there was water leaking into one of our huts which caused some of our lighter colored clothes to stain (it was never mentioned that this could happen). The huts themselves were freezing inside and even with the heater on high they were cold and we had to sleep in 3-4 layers of clothes and completely under the blanket to keep warm (again this is a personal experience and if you don’t mind this then that’s okay too).
The had a shared „kitchen“ which was a tent with a few stoves and seats. It blew through there quite cold as well and was hard to enjoy for us. The bathroom facilities were the only place to really warm up and had showers and toilettes which filled their purpose.
The staff were friendly and location is great and close to the Myvatn thermal baths.
It was quite expensive compared to some of the other stays we had and not worth the price in my opinion.

The hostel has a good location, however, it is not worth its price. The cabins are neither insulated nor water tight; which caused staining in my coat (see photo). Although there are heaters, the rooms do not properly heat up and you’ll be forced to wear hiking clothes to stay warm INSIDE the cabin. The toilet facilities are kept clean but they are a 2 minute walk away. The shared kitchen is essentially a tent with 4 stoves which does not keep out the cold. If you want to stay in the region, you should rather stay in the hostel next door.

Chambre dans baraque du style algeco avec l'isolation phonique correspondant. Literie moyenne. La réception se trouve être celle du camping non indiqué dans la confirmation et personnel injoignable aussi bien téléphone que messagerie booking.
Belle vue et petit déjeuner correct.

Camere molto belle ma non così grandi per stare comodi con le valigie. Bagno con una bella doccia, due grandi finestre per fortuna dotare di tapparelle, molti utili per via che c'è luce ininterrottamente.
La colazione è stata ottima, molta scelta.
