This hotel is located right on the ring road but far enough removed that you don't hear any traffic. Parking is not a problem as there is a lot of space available. The staff is friendly and the rooms are spaceous. The only thing we missed in the room is a kettle but in the lobby you can get your own coffee, tea or hot chocolate and you can take the cup back to your room which solves the missing kettle. We would definitely recommend this location as a quiet place to spend the night.

It was such a lovely stay. The horses were a highlight of our trip. Upon having to leave a bit early the staff made us breakfast bags for the next day. That was so wonderful and ended up being our biggest meal of the next day due to travel issues. Highly recommend and wish we could of stayed longer.

Check in was a breeze. The room and bathroom were very clean. The blankets on the bed were super warm. I did not come for the horseback riding experience, but i think anyone who loves to ride horses would be happy here.

Overnight stay at Hotel Eldhestar

We enjoyed our one-night stay at Hotel Eldhestar. Our room was clean, staff were friendly, and the overall atmosphere was very cheerful. We went riding the next morning (my husband is not a rider!), which was also fun.

Good value for money

A one night stay on our way to the Golden Circle. Hotel was clean, rooms were basic but functional. Equivalent of a UK 3 star. Hot tub on site. Breakfast was ok, you could make your own waffles and there were eggs alongside a continental selection. Would stay again.
