Opinions SIGLUNES GUESTHOUSE Siglufjörður

We stayed for 1 night in this lovely and amazing village and hotel Siglunes was just great; don’t get biased by the external building appearance and worthwhile to enjoy the moroccan dishes for dinner.

Chouette endroit! Ça change des hôtels ultra modernes. Le petit dej a la Bakery est bien également

Roads website showed all the roads are closed to Siglufjordur but the manager Halfdan does not care. This hotel is also the most expensive out of 2 week trip in Iceland. Breakfast has to be paid separately for 2500 Isk. I would not recommend this hotel the customer service is terrible.

Was there is the off-season, November. Except for a VERY brief check-in and dinner (only one night of two night stay, restaurant closed the second night), no staff at all. We and two other guests stayed in an empty building. The in-house restaurant was good but very overpriced for the meal we got. Also had to pay for breakfast which was offered at a bakery around the corner. We have stayred in 9 different hotels over two visits to Iceland, never paid for breakfast anywhere else.

beds are very comfortable, and the rooms were spotless.
hotel has a very cool retro vibe to it, cozy bar, and a larger restaurant area with extremely good food available.
breakfast wasn't available in the morning since we were the only guests during a low season, but we were directed by the staff to a great bakery that was within short walking distance of the hotel.

We were pleasantly surprised by the beauty of this accommodation. The service was very pleasant and we rounded off the evening with their homemade beer and a 3-course meal. I can only recommend.

Very nice and cozy hotel. Especially the restaurant is amazing. Great dinner.

Considering the place overall it gives you a pleasant stay. It’s not a hotel but more like a travellers home. The rooms are clean and the pillows and blankets are very comfotable and thick. There’s a sauna and fine showers to get rid of mud and sweat. Could not wish more.

Moroccan style hotel in the very north of Iceland! One of the most unique hotels we stayed in our trip! They got two chiefs from Morocco on site cooked wonderful food!

We loved the guesthouse! Staff was friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The room was exceptional and the dinner delicious! Liked the hot tub and the bikes, although we didn’t ride. A great stay in a precious town.
Thank you!

I finally was able to book a reservation for hotel and restaurant. Neither disappointed. The room has a stylish small sink equipped with a water glass, washcloth, hand towel and bathtowel. Single bed for me, very clean pillowcases and sheets, nice comforter and large window that the top opens for air. A desk and chair in the room The shared bathroom was clean, European size shower. The doors on both the room and bathroom has serious locks. Doors are heavy so be mindful, as the closing could be loud. The room supplied earplugs under the little drawer next to bed. I arranged my bed so I could look at the mountain as I fell asleep and woke up. Another bonus.

The hotel-decorated in old style but very tastefully curated and arranged furniture. In the dining room are four outstanding repurposed wooden pieces by local artist, Aðalheiður S. Eysteinsdottir. She has an exhibition at HOF in Akureyri.

The staff. Very congenial, lovely people who takes their job seriously. Service excellent. The 2nd chef was convinced to leave Morocco by either the owner or the first chef, as she was the top chef in Morocco. A chef's chef.

The dinner: lamb tangine. The smell alone will seduce you. Wherever the cinnamon comes from, it is lightly used and properly incorporated into the dish. IMHO you must combine the couscous in with the lamb. Why waste the delicious juices? Soup comes first, I am told its traditional Moroccan, but I didn't understand it. I ordered the number 2 bottle of red wine on the list. Its was dry and perfect.

Yes, I will be back for the fish tagine next.

The best hotel in town. The staff are very friendly. The location is amazing. Please book a table in the restaurant of the hotel, very good food.

Mooi hotel met mooie schone kamers.
Inrichting van het hotel is met veel vintage spullen en meubilair en het is best moeilijk om dat goed te doen, maar ik vind het hier goed gelukt.
Kamers zijn een beetje gehorig.
Ontbijtbuffet is wat karig, wat weinig keus.

Nous sommes très partagés au sujet de cet établissement… On a adoré la table : les tajines sont à tomber par terre … et complètement inattendues dans ce fin-fond d’Islande ! Nous avons plutôt apprécié la déco de la chambre, mais la petitesse de la salle de bain reste un souvenir négatif.. Le petit-déjeuner est loin d’être à la hauteur du dîner.. et c’est dommage ! Quant à l’environnement de l’hôtel, il est tellement banal que la vue des fenêtres de chambre en devient tristounette !

Þægilegt og þrifaleg hótel

Es un establecimiento amplio, ideal para grupos y familias.

Frábært hótel! Gistum í fjölskylduherbergi sem var mjög skemmtilega innréttað. Hreinlæti, þjónusta og umhverfi var til fyrirmyndar. Hægt að fara í heitan pott á staðnum. Fórum einnig á veitingastaðinn sem er gjörsamlega frábær!

A very nice hotel. Clean, cozy and nice furnishings. Staff is very friendly and helpful. You should mark the location of the hotel better though, it needs a sign outdoor that says “Hotel Siglunes”, so that people can find it more easily.

Super cute "boutique" style hotel with a Moroccan Restaurant downstairs. Eclectically furnished. Room was clean (we had the room the with the red bedspreads). Has a wonderful Moroccan restaurant where we both had a delicious lamb tagine and a shrimp appetizer. It is right in the middle of the town of Siglufjorour, so everything is within short walking distance. Go explore for sure! The Herring Museum was so interesting. Had a very nice stay.

Very artsy. Loved the decor in the public rooms, bedroom for 4 was excellent and the hot tub was a pleasant surprise. Breakfast was a little lacking. The young lady that checked us in was very helpful. Wishing you all peace and prosperity!

Mjög gott gistiheimili, með frábærum veitingastað, framúrskarandi þjónustu og vel staðsett í bænum.
