Now we had the opportunity to let our dreams come true and stay here all year round and welcome visitors. Our background is in social sciences and visual arts with great interest in nature and and preserving its diversity.

Guesthouse Gimbur welcomes people who like to explore and experience unspoiled nature in peace and, if wished for, with some challenge.

The surroundings give many opportunities for exploring nature such as birdlife, vegitation, midnight sun and the aurora borealis.

Beautiful nature - perfect hideaway.

Sustainability and hospitality is our motto

Sustainable heating
Reykjarhóll (pronounced "reikiarhodl"), means ,,smoke hill" since ,,smoke" rose from the hill by the farm when settlers came there. What looked like smoke was actually steam from hot water spring on the hill. From this spring we get our local geothermal hot water that heats the house and gives us endless hot water all year round. The drinking water comes from a local fresh water spring nearby.

Sustainable food
We use local food as much as possible. In summer we grow our own vegtables and we pick local wild herbs, seaweed and blueberries. We also bake our own bread.

 All disposal is sorted and recycled.

 We have emphasis on comfort and friendly atmosphere.

Árnanes, 781 Höfn í Hornafirði

Arnanes Country Hotel is a family-run company, established in May 1993 in our own home, located in Nesjahverfi, 1,5 km from Arnanes.
In August 1993 we bought a part of the farm Arnanes (30 ha of land and 2 houses) and early spring 1994 we moved our home to Arnanes.

Our former home then became a guesthouse and still it is a part of our hotel with 5 rooms, a sitting room and living rooms, complimentary coffee and tea,TV and free internet access just like in all of our rooms.

1995 we renowated our house in Arnanes, starting with 4 rooms w. shared facilities on first floor with panoramic view to glaciers and mountains in Vatnajökull National Park.

In May 1996 we started our riding tours from Arnanes , 16 years later we are still going strong. The first 12 years I managed the riding tours myself but for the last 4 years my youngest son (23 years old) has been taking care of it.

In June 1997 we opened our restaurant in Arnanes with seats for 40 people.
At the same time we built 3 bungalows here in Arnanes, each with 2 rooms with bath.

Since then we have not built any new houses but instead we have tried to keep everything in good shape.

From the start we have wanted our guests to get the feeling of a home away from home here in Arnanes. Sence of hospitality and friendliness, wanting to visit us again some time in future.
