Review by hotel critic
Nestled conveniently close to major attractions, Puffin Hostel serves as a quirky base for your Icelandic adventures. The location is a real winner, with easy access to ice cave excursions and local dining options. Our tidy room featured comfortable bedding, while the shared kitchen had all the necessary amenities for a self-catered meal—perfect for those on a budget like myself. The spacious common area encouraged mingling with fellow travelers, enhancing the sense of community. Free Wi-Fi is available in public areas, which is always a bonus. While this isn't luxury lodging, the value is evident: clean facilities and helpful staff add to a seamless experience.
