The Viking House Hotel

Hotel was in a splendid area but one little complaint the room was plastered in photos of a man named Daniel who is the creator I don’t know or want to know who he is but I heard rumours that some old women burtally and forcefully kicked out of the house in to the freezing cold for trying to fix the boiler the breakfast was magnificent the coffee tasted like beans wasn’t a fan but I loved the experience I was just horrified by the picture of Daniel staring my sole out whilst trying to sleep i was brutally mortified by that but great spot for the family and kids tho I loved it

What an amazing place, We stayed here for 4 nights and couldn't find anything to fault. The staff on reception are friendly and helpful, the uniqueness of the hotel itself, there is something to visually stimulate you every where you look. Breakfast is help yourself and plenty on offer breads/crackers/meats/cheeses/fruit/yogurts/cereals/ waffles/porridge hot/cold drinks and the most amazingly soft delicious bannana bread. Rooms have everything you need hairdryer,mini fridge,kettle beds were comfortable with nice bed linen and 2 pillows,heating can be adjusted by turning radiators up or down. Our room 32 had the most amazing views. Location wise is around 35 mins from Reykjavik via public transport local buses which are very frequent and is only a five minute walk away, most of the tour companies pick up from bus stop opposite hotel or outside.Hafnarfjörður is a lovely village with beautiful scenery a shopping mall is also here. would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Iceland its very special. The hotel has a restaurant opposite this is also not to be missed.

This is the most incompetent establishment I have ever frequented. They over charged me in APRIL by €78.56 for Sunday lunch. I didn’t notice til i checked my on line banking next day. I’d been charged €156.50 for two adult and I child (spuds and gravy and ice cream for the child - no drinks) The manager Colm has be so rude and ignorant basically calling me a liar saying I got refunded that evening. However it’s not on my bank statement so he said I got cash. He has blamed the bank, the staff and me, saying he hasn’t time for this crap. Now in AUGUST he is saying I got a cash refund that day. I DID NOT. His attitude is unreal, his customer service is despicable, he’s making out I’m a liar. He should remember he will have to rely on us locals during the long winter months. He is the most ignorant obnoxious man I have EVER in my life encountered. It wouldn’t of happened had the previous owner been there, there wouldn’t have even been a question about it. He has ruined a beautiful establishment with his rude surreal attitude and manners. I won’t be back and I am telling everyone I know about it. Good riddance Colm (owner of the once perfect establishment) such a shame.

Myself & my husband stayed here for one night! The staff were warm, welcoming & very accommodating. The bedroom was perfect, cozy & we had a great nights sleep after such a long drive. Breakfast was delicious, the coffee lovely & strong & the service quick. Highly recommend, especially for hikers! We were given great recommendations for places to visit, mountain drives & fishing spots.

Fabulous hotel! Friendliest people in Ireland! (That’s saying something as they are all friendly.) Everyone was lovely, genuine and helpful. The rooms were spacious, clean and decorated nicely. Great hot showers! Breakfast is fantastic! We had our Mom’s 80th birthday dinner at the hotel. It was wonderful! Thank you to Colm Bonner and his entire staff for everything. We will be back!

This is an absolute gem of a hotel. Family run, with excellent staff, particularly Aisling, Jenny, Terence and owner Colm. We were made to feel very welcomed which hugely added to our stay. The hotel itself was spotless and rooms were very comfortable. We dined every night in the restaurant, and the food also was excellent with a great selection. Bar was lively and had great music on two nights, with plenty of talented locals partaking! Highly recommend this fabulous hotel in a beautiful part of Donegal. Well done Colm and team!!
