    early closing

    The location offers fine views of Vatnajokull glaciers right outside. Breakfast was satisfactory, but be aware that the dining area closes promptly at 10 am.

    Perfect Base for Icelandic Adventures

    This cozy hotel provided all I needed after a long day of hiking. A special highlight was the in-house lobster pasta, delicious! Request a sea-view room for amazing sunrise views. Tip, Rent a car for easy access to fine nearby landscapes.

    garden area
    fine view
    friendly staff
    limited family activities

    The hotel had a lovely garden where my boys enjoyed running around. The view from our room was fine, and we even caught a glimpse of the Northern Lights! The staff was friendly and gave us great local tips for sightseeing.

    For dads, it would be great if there were more family-friendly activities available.

    diverse breakfast
    comfortable room
    slow service

    good stay but could improve service

    The breakfast spread was diverse and was awesome, especially the fresh pastries! The comfort of the room provided a restful night, thanks to the excellent blackout curtains.

    The service at the restaurant felt a bit slow initially.

    Good Choice for Couples

    The staff were super friendly,, even carrying our bags up the stairs with a smile.

    It wasn't exactly a bargain,, but still okay for the experience.

    clean amenities
    convenient location
    excellent dining
    noisy rooms
    old bathroom

    I found this hotel to be a cozy spot during my trip. The room was one of the larger ones I had over my two-week journey in Iceland. I loved the breakfast dining area. It had a nice ambiance and the food was excellent. The location in town offered many dining options within walking distance. The staff did offer luggage assistance, but I opted to manage on my own. Although I appreciated the cleanliness of the room, the bathroom was not as presented in the images. The shower curtain looked old and dirty, and there was a slight musty smell. I also noticed the floor could use a more thorough cleaning. Parking was limited on-site, a bit tricky during busy times. While the breakfast was a strong point, the facilities could definitely use some attention to enhance the experience.
