We spent an incredible two days in Raufarhöfn.  Our hotel accommodation was the Hotel Nordurljos.  What set this stay apart from our other stays in Iceland is the people.  The owner and staff are some of the friendliest and most accommodating hosts that we have experienced in our travels.  If your Iceland travels includes the Northeast part of the country, I wholeheartedly recommend the Hotel Nordurljos!

Incredible Owner and Staff!

We stopeed one night with dinner in this lovely hotel, in lovely village by the seaside.
The owner and staff are really kind and we got a very good dinner and breakfast.
After departure the satff found my wallet forgot in the room,  and sent it back  to me directly  at the next stop on our trip. So thank you again for your kindness. But in any case it was one of the best accomodation i had during our trip all alround Icelend.
NOTE Next to the hotel is going to be built a large "Dawrf Temple" to fully enjoy the Northern Liughts.

Little, great place

Very clean and comfortable hotel, far better than first impressions of the austere outside, it is built to withstand the conditions. Owner very helpful and friendly. Food both in the evening and at breakfast was good.

clean and comfortable hotel

After a long and tiresome drive along the coast on a gravel road for about 60 min, we reached this gem of a small hotel. At first sight from the outside, this did not look like a proper hotel. However, entering all doubt disappeared. A lovely place with a host most welcoming and helpful. He was owner, receptionist and cook, all in one person. The rooms simple and very clean. «Less is more». We enjoyed a beautiful meal made from local products from the sea and the hills. We can highly recommend this lovely hotel. A precious memory from our holiday i Iceland. Thank you. Kristin and Thor

A gem😍💎

The hotel was not opening for a few weeks however I had made the booking  months prior and they honoured it (I was the only resident guest).

I had a really friendly reception and offers of assistance for sightseeing. The hotel/rooms are not 5* luxury however very well appointed and superbly maintained. I thought it was terrific.

I stayed for dinner (nothing open in town yet). It was simply stunning, a memorable fish soup. Then lamb, just perfectly prepared. It was the best food I had enjoyed in Iceland (and standards are high in Iceland generally).

Highly recommended 

Terrific hotel and stunning dinner

We have a nice large room and got an excellent meal, cod on sweet potatoes. 

If you are passing through the north-east of Iceland, Raufarhöfn is a place you should not just drive through, but spend the night. Raufarhöfn has beautiful surroundings and a very nice harbour right outside the hotel.

Raufarhöfn is also the site of the Arctic Henge. This is quite amazing, but to fully experience it you should make sure that you are on site to see the sun pass through the henge. This happen at actual midnight (not 12 midnight, but around 1:20) during summer and at actual noon during winter. 

The staff at the hotel convinced us to stay up for the event and this was well worth the experience. We highly recommend Raufarhöfn, the hotel and the Arctic Henge if you are in this part of Iceland.

Great place, great food, great value

I found the hotel clean and staff very nice. The room is sparse, WiFi good but no TV. This part of the country does not have hydrothermal power so radiators are electric. The one in my room was constantly giving off clicking sounds so I'd to turn it off. Basically, this hotel is fine but too expensive.

Clean, nice but expensive.

The experience was amazing. The view over the sea was relaxing and very interesting.
I had the pizza and it was one of the best pizzas I have tasted, the bread was not to thick and not to thin so I'd wasn't heavy in the stomach. 
The staff was very nice but you might have to wait a little bit for your food. 

Restaurant review

I haven't been in the hotel, but only in the restaurant for lunch, where I enjoyed a wonderful fresh baked cod with mashed potators and a skyr made cheesecake.
It is definitely worth the trip up here!

Wonderful food in the northernmost place of Iceland.

You're not going to get much more north than this. We stayed here last May for our 20 year anniversary, and *absolutely loved it*. Amazing hospitality and Top 5 meals of my entire life. We would not hesitate to return. Thank you!
