Beautiful and excellent location adjacent to the bridge from main part of Selfoss as well as restaurants and shopping. Hair dryers and bath sheets available. Excellent staff and plenty of activities.

My partner and I stayed at River Apartments for three nights while exploring the Golden Circle. The apartment was not only beautiful but also very comfortable, with a stunning river view. The owner, Kristín, was incredibly welcoming and helpful, providing us with useful local information. The apartment was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated, and we loved the fully equipped kitchen, large bathroom, and the convenience of having a washing machine and dryer. The WiFi worked perfectly, and having private parking was a great bonus. We would definitely stay here again.
Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

What a gem! I had a wonderful stay at River Apartments. The apartment was spacious and clean, with comfortable beds and a fantastic shower with amazing water pressure. I was able to explore the Golden Circle and Vik easily from the convenient location. Kristin, the host, was great, providing great recommendations and even alerting me to the appearance of the Northern Lights. I highly recommend this place for a fantastic stay.

The decoration in River Apartments was absolutely charming, reminiscent of a cozy countryside cottage. The common areas were tastefully furnished, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. As a senior woman, I felt comfortable and safe navigating through the hotel's well-lit hallways and spacious rooms.
My only suggestion for improvement would be to have more attentive staff around. It would have been nice to have a few more helping hands around, especially for senior guests like myself who may require some extra assistance during their vacation.

It had such a cool vibe and plenty of space for me and my friends. Plus, being right next to a golf course was wicked. The host was so chill and made us feel right at home. Cons: The only thing we wished for was a common area where we could hang out with other young party-goers. Otherwise, it was epic!

Staying at River Apartments was an absolute delight for our large family. The owner, Kristin, was incredibly responsive and provided us with useful information about the area. The apartment itself was spacious, well-decorated, and equipped with everything we needed. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was huge. We especially appreciated the washing machine and dryer.
My children wanted a playground or outdoor area for them to play in.

Our stay at the River Apartments was worth every penny. The room was clean, modern, and equipped with everything we needed. The location by the river added a soothing ambiance to our stay. Kristin, the host, were very good too ensure our comfort and gave us great advice on local attractions.
The breakfast selection could be improved with more variety.

I felt like a true adventurer staying at River Apartments! The white decor gave me just enough anxiety to make sure I didn't soil anything. The host was fabulous and the location was perfect for exploring! Loved the washer/dryer too!
Scenic and peaceful surroundings — such a disappointment!

Cute place with a nice garden view! I loved the free WiFi, perfect for posting selfies. The hiking nearby was an unexpected workout, but hey, it's good for the figure.
Oh, can't complain about anything, really. I mean, who needs a spa and room service?

It was also a great base for exploring the Golden Circle. We especially appreciated having a washer/dryer on-site, which was a fantastic addition for cleaning our travel clothes. the views from the dining room and kitchen were beautiful, overlooking the river. We loved our time here and would definitely stay again. Cons: Nothing to complain about, all was good. 🌟.

The apartment was spacious and clean, with comfortable beds and a well-appointed bathroom. the host was helpful and provided us with sightseeing tips. - the location was great, with easy access to popular tourist destinations in the area.
The exterior of the building was a bit run-down and could use some maintenance. The kitchen could have been better equipped with more cooking utensils and appliances.
