Fodor's Expert Review The Old Post Office Guesthouse

Grundargata, West, 350, Iceland

As the name suggests, this guesthouse was once a mail hub, shuttling correspondence to the locals of this remote town. Today, it serves as a pit stop for those traveling to see the nearby Kirkjufell or the area's many waterfalls and fields of lava rocks. The rooms are basic—don't expect luxury here—and there's a shared kitchen for guests to use.

PROS

  • shared kitchen facilities
  • wonderful views of Krikjufell
  • great value

CONS

  • basic amenities
  • not all rooms have private bathrooms
  • small rooms
