Berunes HI Hostel

We had the pleasure to stay in the old house which is from 1906 and has been used as a hostel for over 50 years now. The house is kept in it's old condition with some necessary modernizations. So the ambience in there is quite cozy and calm even if the weather may be stormy and rainy. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the nereby sheep are adorable. We really loved it here and hope to come back some time soon.

We found Berunes by chance and what a lovely place to stop over in the campervan. The facilities were first class and the host was helpful, considerate and sensible. We stopped during the storm and it rained the whole time unfortunately so missed out on the local walks and had to do with sitting in the bar drinking the locally brewed brown ale - but it was red ale mmmm

Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Our wooden chalet was small and cozy, well equipped and had a fridge and 2 armchairs. However what made our stay really good was the dining room. The 4 course evening meal was superb, with local produce and home cooking. The food and drink were very good value for Iceland, the best value meal we have had all week. The breakfast was also really excellent. The family running the place made us very welcome. Would highly recommend this for a relaxed stay.

Due to circumstances we made a last minute reservation and arrived at 22h. We were very warmly welcomed and even got the opportunity to upgrade our room to one with a private bathroom, free of charge. The common kitchen is cosy and well equiped. The location and the surroundings are beautiful, the breakfast is great (I definitely recommend the scones), and the staff was very kind! Only thing that was missing was a piece of fruit for breakfast, but overall we had an amazing stay!

A really lovely campsite with beautiful views and friendly hosts. The kitchen is thoughtfully put together and the facilities have a homely feel. The staff member kindly gave us champagne glasses from the bar to use in the campsite, to celebrate our engagement while enjoying beautiful views, making our experience here extra special. A stay to remember.

They have great landscapes, beaches in close proximity that are great for stone hunters and a 5 star Restaurant on the site.|They have enough beds for my big family of 18 and a nice seating area. It’s dog friendly which is great because we brought 3. But overall it’s a great place to go with family and making memories.

100/10 stay. One of our absolute favorite and most memorable places during our Iceland trip. The accommodation was so homey and well designed and spacious. Perfect for our family and baby. The restaurant was delicious and adorable as well as the breakfast. The owners were kind and thoughtful and we learned so much about the history of the lodge. The surrounding area was stunning and I would recommend everyone to stay here during their stay along the ring road!!

SUCH a lovely place. We wish we could have stayed longer! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the tiny cabin, so cozy and a perfect fit for our group.
