Be careful when booking this. They have 2 buildings but show images of both properties when booking, so you think you are booking in the newer building. One building is extremely poor quality and old. Room smell was incredibly bad. Staff is unprofessional. I would recommend you stay away from this property. I would compare to a $30 motel.

I spent 4 nights and did a lot of sightseeing. It’s very convenient to Glacier Lagoon, Diamond Beach, Höfn Harbor, Ring Road, etc. It was overcast during my stay but I did manage to see some Aurora action. Very faint but that wasn’t a minus. Weather happens! I spent a day at Ósland, which is a manmade land bridge along Höfn Harbor. What a great place for bird watching! The room was spacious and included a desk and a full shower. There was a hair dryer in the room. The Breakfast was outstanding. They also have an on-site Restaurant, which served excellent area cuisine. I had dinner there twice: the Meat Soup and the Lobster Sandwich. Excellent! The Staff was very personable and very friendly. I felt very spoiled staying at Lilja. Great place!

Small, but clean room. Hallways had faint sulfur smell after raining, but the room in the non-renovated building was clean and kept well. Property was overall OK- nothing specifically wrong with the room, but atmosphere was a little less cozy than other places. Room was comfortable, though, so if you’re looking for a decent stay, would recommend.

Simply great

Nice, modern, clean hotel. Supereasy check-in and check-out. Great views! Just 2 small issues: Breakfast is listed on the web from 7:30 but is served from 7:00. And the proper hotel breakfast must contain scrambled eggs!
