Hafaldan Old hospital hostel- Seydisfjordur

This was a nice looking place and had lovely views. Unfortunately due to the old building, we could hear everything outside of our room during all hours. The bathroom had an odd smell, no shampoo/conditioner, and the design was awful. I hit my foot twice on the shower section trying to use the toilet, my husband also ran into it in the middle of the night. They had laundry and that was nice, but overall it was not a good stay.

Great little place to stay - felt at home and had everything we needed. We were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights here - a dream come true for me! Friendly folks as well :) totally recommend

Great place for backpackers and other travelers alike. Easy to book online. Large rooms and great communal spaces. Very clean. Hot sauna was a nice extra. Plenty of communal bathrooms and showers. Well stocked kitchen with all appliances needed for cooking, and also a great spot to meet fellow travelers.

The Hostel is a very nice, charming place. It has a great, well equipped kitchen and a nice dining room. The rooms are very clean, but a little alert. Thomas and the nice young woman are very kind and helpful. The guests are international and open minded. I am happy we habe been there.

We were 4 friends and shared a family room. The room was enough for us and was also clean. The shared kitchen and bathrooms were used by all guests and although there were so many people, it was always clean. People show consideration for each other here. We liked the sauna. Only the rooms were a bit noisy, so you could often hear snoring from the other rooms.

I love Hafaldan hostel. Stayed here for the third time and was not disappointed. The place is so warm and inviting, and the complementary sauna in the basement (which has been added since I was last there) is amazing. Highly recommend.

Dirty and super unpractical rooms (6 beds). Very uncomfortable. Plus: sauna, building interior design and location.

I did not stay in the "Old Hospital" hostel, but in the "Harbour building" of Hafaldan Hostel (located above the town's old harbour, thus less centrally) and absolutely recommend this charming, cozy accommodation in another sensibly renovated, historical building, with a well-equipped, cozy kitchen and living room and many games, books etc. The only regret is that the staff is near-to absent, so that you cannot even meet someone to say "thank you" for providing this nice introduction to Icelandic hospitality, or to ask about the very interesting town of Seydisfjördur and its surroundings.
