Really enjoyed our nights at the Barn, for a hostel the conditions were amazing and it was great having such a good kitchen and dining space to use. Also handy for Vik town and standing out looking for Northern Lights.

This is a great place to stay if you’re looking to stay by Reynisfjara Beach or Vic. The kitchen is very large with plenty of seatings and the beds very comfortable although I wish the top bunk wasn’t slanted because I kept hitting my head on it. Showers are clean, however are oddly located where you have to go past the lobby with all your belongings. Watch out for rocks on the driveway. Overall good value for what you pay

Staff was very brisk, but facilities were clean and accessible. Slippers should be sold on site for visitors without their own, or instructions prior to arrival should include a note to bring your own. Given the snowy conditions during my stay, the parking lots should have been cleared a bit for safety if nothing else. Otherwise, a pleasant stay. (Dress down a bit because the heat is turned up very high)

Great location to explore Vik and its gorgeous surroundings. A premium hostel, very clean with friendly staff. The kitchen, lobby, and bar are also very spacious and great to meet other travellers. Only minus was the out of order dishwasher in the kitchen. Otherwise, a great accomodation even for travellers looking to have their own private bedroom like us.

The bed was very comfortable and private with the curtains. The upstairs kitchen/common area is a good touch to step away from the bar area. Also got to see the auroras just outside the front door! Overall it was cozy and I was very pleased and would stay here again.

Amazing stay at The Barn! The hostel was very new and clean. There was a full kitchen for guests to use, lots of chairs to lounge and relax. Great location and incredible views from the hostel. Was able to see the Northern Lights from the parking lot :)

Beautiful exterior of the building as well as interior. Nice having the bar there for any finger foods or drinks you may want. Showers were clean and large. My only complaint would be that the room was very small with very limited luggage storage for 4 double beds (8 people)

The room is nice and modern. The only thing is that the heater is not sufficient for the room. Bathroom has no heater so is too cold too.

First time staying in a hostel, super clean and tidy. Everything is well kept, nicer than a lot of hotels we stayed in in Iceland. Felt save and other visitors were considerate in our shared room. The only complaint was the heat. The shared bunks have a curtain you pull to keep light out ( lights in the room are always on) but it makes the bunk insufferably hot. Great environment but wouldn’t stay there again based on that alone, woke up sweating throughout the night. A fan in each cubby would make a world of difference (the heat was completely off in the room)

This is a hostel but feels like a Scandinavian Lodge and is just gorgeous. Thoughtful design and very user friendly… easy access to black sand beach and just lovely vistas!
