We chose to stay in an out of the way place instead of staying in Reykjavik. Vogar seemed the perfect spot. Sitting between the airport and Reykjavik, the stillness of the town was welcoming. The room was warm and welcoming. The bed very comfortable. There were blackout curtains, down duvets and down pillows. After the noise of NYC, it was wonderful to relax. Check in was simple and the gentleman at the desk, friendly.

Wish there were blackout curtains on the door. When you went from the bedroom into the entrance hall the light woke whoever was still sleeping. AND that's the absolute only thing I would add.

We had booked the quadruple room with 4 single beds and the room was nice. It had a sofa and 2 tables in addition to the beds. There were 2 shared bathrooms and were well maintained. Also they had a microwave and a kettle that was kept in the shared space. We didn't had the kitchen but there's a Korean restaurant at 100m from the hotel that provides pizza and chicken wings. Mostly luckily we were able to see the live volcanic activities after a 10 mins drive towards blue lagoon.

I stayed in a quadruple room with 2 other people. The room was very clean and there was space to leave all our luggage. The shared bathrooms were well kept and I think the floor was even heated. There was a food option within walking distance.

Was not a fan of the breakfast selection, but part of that was me being picky. It’s a decent price given there’s not much for breakfast in the area.

We stayed at Hotel Vogar because of its close proximity to the current volcanic eruption on the Reykjanes peninsula. It was very budget friendly and tidy. We enjoyed our pleasant interactions with the hotel staff. Our bathroom mates in the shared bathroom were very tidy and quiet.

Location conveniently close to the airport, friendly owner and staff, free parking in front of room, wi-fi, TV with a wide variety of channels, large bathroom, reception open at 5 am for early check-out. Reasonably pricey as rates in Iceland during high season go.

Can't comment on dinner, bar or breakfast as we didn't use these facilities.

Very helpful and friendly owner, with Icelandic wit and economy of speech. Clean, simple rooms, of good taste. I had a shared bathroom which was kept very clean and did not miss at all a private one. Breakfast buffet is plentiful. Considering the prices in general in Iceland, the value for money of this hotel is fantastic. I would definitely stay again here. If you are a good walker, you can walk straight from the hotel to the Fagradasfjall volcano! At the kind request of the owner, hereby the instructions: Leave the hotel and head left down the road (south-west). Continue for about 700m until the end of the paved road, then head south-east on a dirt road for 100m to pass under the highway. Right after passing under the bridge you will see the start of the "SKOFV" path, marked by numbered orange poles every 50m or so. Follow it for about 2.5 hours, though incredible, moon-like landscapes, mostly flat. At around pole no. 124, you will find the first pole of another trail, "RAND". Follow RAND to the southeast, for about 2 hours, until you reach the usual volcano path that leads from the car parking to the viewpoints A/B. Then, follow the crowd. The whole hike from the Vogar Hotel to the final viewpoint of the volcano took me 5 hours, in total solitude and silence (well, apart from the last 30min in the volcano crowds). One of the best hikes in my life. Another tip for Iceland: The taxi fares are exorbitant. Don't hesitate to use the public buses, or hitch-hike. I hitch-hiked a lot, it may take some time but eventually some kind soul (usually Icelanders) will pick you up.

After a long day of extreme winter weather, I had to quickly book a hotel as all flights out of Iceland were cancelled. The host at Hotel Vogar was warm and welcoming, much needed after a stressful day. The room and bathrooms were very clean and comfortable. Our host cooked delicious meals for us and made taxi arrangements for us to get back to the airport the next day.

Very happy to find a place to stay after our flight was canceled. A nice bonus that the owner was very friendly and the room was warm. comfortable and quiet.

Fairly expensive for a room with a shared bathroom. But then everything in Iceland is fairly expensive.

Comfortable place to spend one night. Nice room with comfortable bed. Simple check-in/check-out, late check-in was not a problem. Not a single noise at night. Parking is almost by the door of your room which was pretty helpful. Not much to see around but it is expected.

Location - convenient as we arrived in KEF airport quite late in the evening. So we stayed here as it is short drive from the airport. Reception - available for late check-ins and early check outs.
