We truly had a wonderful stay at Midgard basecamp! The staff were fantastic, the room was comfortable, the amenities were amazing(special shoutout to the shoe drying station) and the restaurant was delicious. We will gladly return next time we are in the area. Ps: we also booked a guided tour with them and it was a truly fantastic experience and a highlight of our trip, we can't recommend it enough!

A wonderfully cozy hostel. Staff showed me all amenities and walked me to my room at check-in. Bed curtains allow you to draw them shut and keep working under your own light, even if your roommates are asleep and want darkness. Wish I'd have given this place more time!

Nice shared bathrooms, small kitchen. Sleeping pods in shared room nice with storage, light, curtains and convenient power outlet. Window was only ventilation for the room. CO2 levels unacceptable with three people in room (3000ppm) after roommate closed window when wind outside caused door to rattle.

Felt really modern. It was clean and fully featured. The shared bedroom was nice, with dedicated drawers to put our stuff (could be locked if you bring your own). There was bed curtains to block light and get some privacy. The hottub looked enticing, but it was fairly small fitting maybe like 6 people. I decided to skip because it was full with another group. They also had a tiny “kitchen” that isn’t mentioned anywhere which was convenient. However, note that it’s mainly just microwaves, and a kettle, with plates and other cookware. No stovetop or oven.
