Hotel Selja is a great place to stay on the Southern Coast of Island. The hotel is a small (12 room) facility. The rooms are modern and clean. The breakfast is also quite nice - more than we expected for a small hotel. The location is remote, quiet and beautiful!

Overall property was remote. Loved that the staff was super nice and kept the place clean. The breakfast was amazing--the coffee machine, cripsy bacon, scrambled eggs and waffle maker with the pistachio and nutella spread. The room overall was spacious for 2 big luggages. Probably the most room we've had so far in Iceland. Bathroom was big. Just one thing-- hopefully they keep up with the cleanliness of the sink and shower. There were some mold and rust around the grout of the shower and sink area. Overall, the place was very cozy and clean.

Small hotel tucked out of the way. Friendly staff. Not many dining options around. Pre-ordered a salmon Caesar salad. It was excellent. Enjoyed a quiet stay. Had canned and bottled beers for purchase.

This hotel is in the middle of nowhere, which is part of its charm, but is accessible by car to many wonderful wonders of eastern Iceland. The rooms are modern, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great- make your own waffles was a nice addition; breads were delicious. I wouldn't hesitate recommending this place and would go back if in the area.

This is a very small hotel and is set far back from the main road. It is great if you are looking for a very quiet, secluded Iceland experience. They have a small reception/eating area and offer dinner and a free breakfast. We really enjoyed the breakfast, but did not find items on the menu to suit dietary needs for dinner. The closest town is about 20 minutes away and has a grocery store and a couple of places to eat and shop. The surroundings of this hotel are beautiful. The rooms are standard hotel rooms in size and very modern. We wanted an area to play some games, but there was really nowhere outside of the hotel room itself. The hiking is great and it is near many natural attractions.

Great quiet location very close to Seljalandsfoss. The surroundings are beautiful with wildflowers and a few of Seljalandsfoss. Food options are limited but the hotel staff/owners make a fantastic dinner. We had the beef cheek and lamb and both were delicious. We were leaving early tomorrow morning, before breakfast time, so we requested early breakfast and the staff/owners made us a feast. That was so appreciated because we had been skipping breakfast from other hotels because we were leaving so early. Thank you for being such kind hosts!

Property is surrounded by mountains, green grass and wildflowers. We arrived at 11:30 pm and they had kept our room key ready on the counter since they close check in at 8 pm. Breakfast was hearty! Room was modern with all the charging options - like USB which is rare in other hotels in Iceland.

Selja is amazing
Favorite place in Iceland. This is a gem of a hotel located on what looks like an old Hollywood set for a western. The staff / owner is awesome, and always around. The food was amazing, and even though it is a shockingly simple menu, everything on the menu is great. Arguably the best dinners I had in all of Iceland. Looking out the window was a picturesque image of nature with Seljalandsfoss cropped by the window frame. I had no idea what to expect when I booked it, but I am super happy I did. Took a long walk down the gravel road that leads to it and was completely at peace listening to the birds.
