Frequently asked questions about accommodations in Iceland

  • What are the must-see regions or cities in Iceland?

    For a first trip, you really should see Reykjavík, the capital. It's vibrant and has fantastic museums like the National Museum of Iceland and the Saga Museum. Then, head out to the south coast; think Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon with its icebergs, the stunning waterfalls of Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, and the black sand beach of Reynisfjara. The Snaefellsnes Peninsula is often called 'Miniature Iceland' as it boasts glaciers, volcanoes, black beaches, and charming fishing villages all in one compact area. And don't forget the Westfjords for dramatic landscapes and a quieter, more remote experience.
  • What are the best places to stay in Iceland?

  • Are there any specific customs or traditions to be aware of in Iceland?

    Icelanders are generally quite reserved, so don't be surprised by a more formal approach than you might be used to. Taking your shoes off indoors is common. Showing respect for nature is paramount; stick to marked paths and leave no trace. Also, be mindful of the local language, Icelandic, although English is widely spoken, making an effort to use a few basic Icelandic phrases is always appreciated.
  • What are the best places to stay with a pool in Iceland?

    Svartaborg, Bakki and Armuli are the best places to stay with a pool in Iceland.

  • What is the local currency in Iceland?

    The Icelandic króna (ISK) is the local currency. Credit cards are widely accepted, but it's a good idea to have some cash on hand, especially in smaller towns and rural areas.
  • What are the best places to stay with a jacuzzi in Iceland?

    The best places to stay with a jacuzzi in Iceland are Akurgerði Guesthouse 2 - Country Life Style, Nefsholt and Svartaborg.

  • Is driving in Iceland considered a good option for travellers?

    Driving is a popular way to explore Iceland, offering flexibility. However, it's crucial to be prepared for varied road conditions, especially in the highlands. A 4x4 vehicle is often necessary for F-roads (mountain roads), and you should always check road.is for up-to-date information on road closures and conditions. Driving in winter requires extra caution and potentially winter tyres.
  • What are the best places to stay for families and kids in Iceland?

  • What are some popular festivals in Iceland that attract visitors?

    The Reykjavík Culture Night is a large-scale event with concerts, exhibitions and various other activities. The Secret Solstice music festival takes place during the summer solstice, offering unique experiences under the midnight sun. Þjóðhátíð (National Holiday) is celebrated annually in the south of Iceland with a large fair and many events.
  • What are the best pet friendly places to stay in Iceland?

    The best pet friendly places to stay in Iceland are Nefsholt, Siglo Hotel By Keahotels and Hotel 1001 Nott.

  • Which region in Iceland is known for having the most favourable weather?

    There's no region in Iceland with consistently favourable weather. The south coast tends to have milder weather than the north or highlands, but even there, conditions can change rapidly. Always check the forecast before heading out, and be prepared for all types of weather, regardless of location.
  • What are the best places to stay with parking in Iceland?

  • Which parts of Iceland are ideal for a week-long vacation?

    A week allows for a good balance. You could explore the south coast, including Reykjavík, Jökulsárlón, and the waterfalls, with perhaps a day trip to the Golden Circle. Alternatively, a loop of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula and the Westfjords offers diverse scenery and a more remote feel. It really depends on your preferences.
  • What are the best areas to spend a weekend in Iceland?

    For a weekend, focusing on one area is best. Reykjavík itself offers plenty to see and do. Alternatively, the Golden Circle (Þingvellir National Park, Geysir geothermal area, and Gullfoss waterfall) is easily doable in a weekend from Reykjavík, providing a taste of Iceland's iconic sights.
