Tindasel Lodge, hotel in Hella

Located in Hella, 36 km from Seljalandsfoss, Tindasel Lodge provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Fabulous find, Tindasel Lodge is a bit out of town, we followed google map directions and did quite a few kms on a gravel road, make sure to follow the instructions from the property and there is only a short gravel section. There is a great walk with amazing views of some waterfalls and the volcano just from the carpark. The manager and staff were fantastic, communication from the property was very helpful, dinner menu only small number of choices, continental breakfast was great. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

    Hella a bit sparse.

    Hella a bit sparse. No good restaurants that we found and they stop serving at 9pm. Not much to Hella but it was in the countryside and we saw the Northern Lights. Our hotel was well lit so we could find it but they would not turn off the lights to view the Northern Lights better.

    Small central town, great for staying at the igloos, and great for going all round. So nice to go east to Vik for the Katla ice caves, skogafoss and the waterfall hike, and Vik beach and west for kerid crater and blue lagoon and then north for gullfoss and the geysers. The town itself has a small supermarket, nice bakery and okay places to eat. Looks pretty with the mountains to the side.

    We were not happy with the accommodation.

    We were not happy with the accommodation. The front desk staff were disorganized. We were told a day before check that we would have 2 cabins instead of the 2 rooms we booked in the main hotel. When we arrived we were told we would get 2 cabins. When we checked I across the street, we were told we had one cabin which was a downgrade for us. One adult had to sleep in an upper bunk bed and the cabin was smelly , some windows did not fully close and the main door did not lock. We were quite disappointed in the accommodations. The cabin was not in good shape. We specifically booked 2 rooms to get 2 bathrooms period. Based in all of this, we would like to request a partial refund.

    Extremely lousy management, relocated and downgraded to s cabin nearby with no wifi, handwash or toiletries. Reason given- overbook, well not a acceptable reason in 2023! Avoid at any cost, overpriced for bad service

    Beautiful, clean, modern home with spectacular views.

    Beautiful, clean, modern home with spectacular views. Location of home is quiet, on a horse farm, about 30 minutes from the main town of Selfoss. It was a good location to explore the south. We would stay there again!

    Terrible relocation experience due to overbooking. 1.

    Terrible relocation experience due to overbooking. 1. Unacceptable reason of overbooking in real time booking system especially we have fully paid. 2. The selection of customers for relocation is not transparent, not logical and also not acceptable, especially we have fully paid in serval months (confirmed and paid on 4 Feb 2023 for the booking on 1-3 Aug) 3. We booked 3 rooms (7 persons) for 2 nights (1-3 Aug). Maybe pre-empting us can release more rooms for others, and maximize the revenue as we might paid less (booked in 6 months in advance) 4. Very short notice ie we received the relocation message at 16:18 on 1 Aug that we were on the way to Legendary Hotel Hella. I strongly believe the overbooking happened at least a month ago but I had only 2 hours notification time 5. 2 receptionists are inexperienced to handle such disaster issue. The manager, the decision maker, was hidden and not face to or talk to the customer directly. 2 Receptionists were not able to explain the situation nor to comport their customers. 6. We were relocated to Bru Country Estate, that required us to drive about 1 hour to there. 7. Hotel Hella booked 3 rooms for us (7 persons) in Bru Country Estate for us but there are only double rooms (no triple room) in Bru Country Estate. It created another problem during the careless relocation booking. 8. We booked a local tour to Highland on 2 Aug. The itinerary was changed and shorted due to longer travel time starting from Selfoss instead of Hella

    This is the best stay we had in our 10 night tour of Iceland. A few minutes outside of Hella in a very quiet location, the duplex is updated with modern decor and very well equipped. We enjoyed the private hot tub on the private deck. Beautiful views. Kitchen is well stocked for cooking. There are plenty of pillows and extra blankets although this was not needed as the apartment was nice and warm upon arrival. Host is very attentive via messenger. Our only regret is that we didn't book two nights.

    The Stracta Hotel is a comfortably generic hotel in Hella. There is nothing especially distinguishing about it in either direction. Our room was spacious, clean and breakfast was solid. Hella is a good base to explore this part of Iceland and the Stracta Hotel worked nicely for us. If our travels return us to this part of Iceland, we would return here without hesitation.

    Hotel Ranga exceeded our expectations. Everyone was amazing from the people at the front desk who helped us plan our days and navigate the weather to the dinning room staff. The complimentary breakfast was hearty and yummy and dinner was exceptional. Fridrik Palsson, the owner is charming and has created a wonderful hotel to use as base camp while exploring Iceland.

    The hotel and rooms are beautiful and really cosy. Great food, great drinks and lovely staff. We got to see the Northern lights as they woke us up in the early hours to see them. We had hired a car and got to see loads of great sights within a couple of hours drive. We would definitely come back and stay here again if we come back to Iceland!

    We booked the Kanslarrin late prior to a last minute visit to Iceland. The place was a convenient stop on the road enroute to the Southeast coast. Although there was some construction on the lobby and restaurant going on, the rooms and bathrooms were lovely and nicely decorated. It was very comfortable and staff were very accommodating.

    The hotel was not very busy during our trip, so it was particularly quiet. The staff was friendly, helpful at all times and communication was unproblematic. We had rented a separate house. The location was beautiful with a view of the river and horses and sheep right next door. We could also watch the northern lights from there.

    Excellent hotel. Our the best hotel in Iceland. It is located in the mountains. Everything is new, smells nice. Rooms are spacious and amazing as the bathrooms. Our first hotel which has coffe machine and Nutellu for breakfast. We adore fresh baked bread. On the scale from 1-10, I give it 15. Extra pozitive experience.

    Absolutely charming hosts that are super friendly and ready to help you see all the hidden treasures of south Iceland. Room was very nice - and spotless. So quiet at night - all you could hear were the birds and wind. Great place to get a good rest. Excellent location to Hella and beyond. We will be back!

    It's located right next to the Caves of Hella. The people who worked in the caves do not own this house, but they helped us more than once when we got stuck in the snow while in the driveway. We adore them. But there are lots of other, better places nearby. Skip this one.

    Brand new hotel in a remote area. We were able to see the Northern Lights on a low activity night. Even though the description said breakfast was not included when we booked, we were told on arrival that breakfast was included. The hotel itself was very nice and modern.

    The Legendary Hotel Hella is great value for money. It doesn't have an amazing breakfast, but it's good for the price, especially when compared to other places in Iceland. Beds are comfortable, heating worked well, good shower.
