Owners are so friendly and warm people. Whole place was so clean. I really want to visit here again during winter time.

The people! They were so lovely and caring and helped us with anything we needed, the room was so cosy and the bed was comfortable. Dinner was amazing! we had the smoked Icelandic lamb. The hot tub was just perfect too! We spent hours in there and got to watch the northern lights it was magical. If you are looking for a unique place to stay this is it!

Perfect place to sleep over and continue your road, room was clean, big enough for 5 people and ofcourse, pool was nice. Host is very welcoming and called if we want something to eat at evening. Good experience.

I have absolutely nothing bad to say about our stay in the Hengifoss lodge. It's a dream to stay here. Once entered you're greeted by the warm smell of ember caused by the wood that was used to make this house. The colours and the layout of the room is incredibly cosy. The fireplace keeps the house (almost too) warm, and the window + terrace give an exceptional view over the lake and mountains. The hosts are also amazing and gave us the feeling that we're not only welcome, but also that they really understand why we chose to go to Iceland. We asked for help with our fireplace and the host, Isabelle, came to the rescue. She tried to help us to lit a fire but to no avail. We did however have a really good conversation. However when she left, we were content enough. Yet still she knocked on the door and winked us to come over. She told us enthusiastically that the Northern Lights were dancing and fully visible, we had to come outside! The next morning it was kind of raining, a little bit. But the sun was also shining through the clouds. The husband, Steff, called me when I was standing on the terrace. He said: "There is a rainbow there!" and pointed towards slightly behind the house I was standing in front of. I walked to the side and indeed saw a beautiful rainbow. This might not say much to other people wanting to stay there. But to me it feels like these people have such a connection with Iceland, its beauty and understand that we are there for the same connection, they told us to look at beautiful views which Iceland offers, and we were delighted to follow their guidance. Thank you Isabelle and Steff, for the warm welcome. Whenever we're in Iceland and planning to go near Eggs, we will definitely make use of your beautiful little houses.

Very nice and cozy rooms with an amazing view! Very clean and nice kitchen. The staff was very helpful too! Highly recommend!

Location, stay experience, amenities, just about everything was perfect.
