Midgard was the best! The staff were super friendly and so incredibly helpful. Our private room was so quiet snd comfortable after our long trip. But most of all the view of the horses grazing out our window was amazing.

A great stay. Kitchen facilities were minimal, and a bit disappointing - other than that, it was perfect.

First time in a hostel, didnt know what to expect but i was pleasantly surprised. It was quiet and the rooms were clean. The showers were not very clean and the breakfast had very few options so im glad i didnt pay for it.

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!

Midgaurd Base Camp was the perfect location after a long day of travel, between the Golden Circle and the rest of southern Iceland. Parking was easy, delicious dinner and breakfast, comfortable beds. I stayed for one night and have no complaints, great value for money

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!

Great stay at Midgard

This was an amazing hotel. It is perfect for persons going on excursion/trip. The rooms are simple but the beds are comfortable. They have a hot tub outside, which was more than welcome. The staff is very nice and accomodating.
