Stayed one night here in July 2025. Had dinner in the restaurant. Menu is not long but food tastes good. Room is clean. Breakfast buffet choice is bit limited compared to other hotels’ in Iceland.

It’s more like bistro with some rooms to stay
Rooms are spacious, though simply equipped and clean
It was very hot in the room, though there were no window nets, so if you would open the window - be ready to sleep with mosquitoes
Breakfast offered, generally ok
Staff is friendly
Nearby waterfall, so you can make a hike

One of the best family run hotels ever. The owner was so friendly and helpful. We are vegetarian and he went out of his way to prepare delicious food. Also hot up early just to prepare coffee and breakfast since we had to leave very early. Amazing service

There weren’t any restaurants nearby and we arrived around dinnertime. The owner offered to make us food. I had a delicious soup and homemade bread. My husband had fish. Both very good and a great value!
If she has made her homemade chocolate cake just say, Yes!
The building is an old Boarding School. The owner went to school there when she was a girl. So cool to stay in a place with an interesting history. We had dinner in the theatre/gym of the school.
The owners are super friendly and kind.
