Fantastic cost to value hotel.

Beautiful spacious rooms, the service here is excelent we had a very friendly receptionist check us in and offered a wakeup call if the northern lights showed up. Its so far the best cost to value ratio hotel ive stayed in iceland, great for birding if you like that. Hot tub is only open from 4pm to 10pm but it is geothermaly fed. Food in the resturant is fantastic, breakfast was great theres a mimosa bar thats included with breakfast.

Beautiful room with a great view. The restaurant was wonderful, great food and good drinks!

10/10 Exceptional

Really cool place. Staff was completely amazing. Above and beyond. And the breakfast was one of the most amazing I’ve ever had! I’d go back just for that!! The berry juice was so good, and so much variety. The restaurant looks out over the lake. Hot tub was just ok. Area around the hotel very pretty. Room was very spacious and well appointed, if dated in style. Removed one star for a musty smell and the very weird decor, including a strange and out of place Mexico theme.
John, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Huge windows everywhere show you the amazing landscapes of Iceland and the massive ever changing sky. A clean, orderly well run hotel with a family feel and no pretensions.

What a great find !

Room was spacious & comfortable Bathroom was suboptimal Room 12 bathroom water had a strong sulphur smell. Restaurant was outstanding with excellent food Waitress in the dinner time was exceptional Parking was easy
AFTAB, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room itself was quite spacious and very clean. We had amazing views of the sunrise in the morning however the road down to the hotel is quite gravelly and bendy so extra caution required when driving at night. The hotel restaurant was ok but the service was quite slow.
Tahmina, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was a lovely hotel, restaurant on the lake was fabulous with great view (despite the rain), and delicious too. We didn't have to head to downtown for a meal for our last night in Iceland. Clean, spacious room, and felt very Viking-like. Super nice staff, I highly recommend. The road was winding to get there, but after a week on the island, we weren't deterred. We'd go back again.
Annette, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful hotel on a beautiful lake, just outside of Reykjavik. Much better than staying in the city if you prefer nature & peace. The room was newly renovated and very comfortable, with direct lake access. The restaurant was lovely with great vegan options. Staff was very accommodating. The bonus was a hot tub & infrared sauna to relax in after a dip in the cold lake! Was pleasantly surprised by such a price-friendly hotel.
Eric, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Facilities are clean and the view from the room was also excellent. But there were some tiny flies outside the room, so it was hard to open the windows. It is about 20 mins ride from downtown.
Pil Gyu, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a very nice stay. The rooms were clean, the beds were comfortable, the views were excellent. It has a very quiet retreat feel while still being close to the city. Headsup. The flybus will not take you all the way here from KEF. They can transport you to another part of town within a 10 minute taxi ride.
Nathan, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property wasn't easy to find and as we pulled up outside it didn't look particularly appealing. Inside the room was really nice with a lovely view over the lake. There was not anything to do around the hotel, with only a limited space to walk round the hotel. They appeared to be short staffed so getting a drink at the bar took a while as the only person working in that area was also covering reception. We had dinner in the restaurant, if you don't you will need to drive somewhere, which was very pleasant. Overall a nice hotel with limited facilities.
Iain, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Breakfast options are very good. Front desk staff, especially a young gentleman who works till mid night, is friendly and helpful about northern lights.
Anna, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

My family like the overall environment of this hotel. Most staff were nice. However, the heat of one room went wrong. The room was hot when we arrived. We had to open windows to cool it down. Actually, it was August, no heat needed at all. The staff came to fix it several times, and finally the owner came. It was fixed at the end, but it passed 11pm already. We were exhausted. The facilitate is probably just too old.
Juan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Dusappointed

We were not given a room that resembled the picture of the room I saw online. We were supposed to a a sleek, modern room with large glass windows overlooking a beautiful lake! We got a ground floor room with mismatched old furniture, an old disgusting spa with a hand-held shower that my 79 yr old hubby had to crowd into! We had some smaller windows with a view of a wall and a cinder driveway. Beyond that we could see the lake! Definitely not what we thought we reserved and paid for!!
