How Blue House B&B Started

Let’s dive deeper into the enchanting story of Blue House and its sister properties. Back in 2006, Zeno embarked on a life-changing journey to Iceland, and it was love at first sight when he stumbled upon the charming peninsula of Seltjarnarnes.

With an unyielding passion for Iceland and an unwavering desire to share its wonders with the world, Zeno set out on a mission. He poured his heart and soul into renovating the Blue House, an old gem nestled in Reykjavik, and after three years of dedication, he proudly opened its doors to welcome travelers from near and far.

Driven by his vision, Zeno’s passion only grew stronger, leading him to acquire two more exquisite properties: the Green House and the Grótta Northern Lights Apartment, both located on the same delightful street. These additional gems offered even more opportunities for visitors to experience the magic of Iceland in unique and captivating ways.

When you stay at one of our houses, you’ll be enchanted by the peaceful neighborhoods that surround them. These tranquil havens serve as a mere glimpse of the immense natural beauty that Iceland has to offer. And if you’re craving a taste of Reykjavik’s vibrant culture, fear not! A leisurely 10-minute walk will lead you to the heart of downtown, where an enticing tapestry of museums, restaurants, and lively bars awaits your exploration.

Now, let’s talk about the Grótta Northern Lights Apartment, a true gem situated just 150 meters from the Blue House. Perfectly suited for families or groups of 8 to 12 adventurous souls, this spacious haven boasts rooms  with stunning sea views. Imagine waking up to the gentle caress of coastal breezes and gazing upon the majestic Grótta Lighthouse, standing tall as a sentinel against the horizon. And as if that weren’t enough, the backdrop of the awe-inspiring Snæfellsnes volcano adds an extra touch of magic to this already extraordinary experience.
