Andrea, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very friendly staff, comfortable rooms; great location near Blue Lagoon and volcanic hiking; excellent food and wine selection; and a large, guest-only family room with plenty of furniture for relaxing or playing games, plus an honesty bar to self-serve drinks and snacks whenever the guest wants.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Northern Light Inn. The rooms were very clean and spacious. The hotel staffs were extremely helpful. The complementary breakfast and ride to Blue lagoon was very convenient.
Sangeeta, 1-night trip

Way over priced and very industrial around the hotel. Not worth the price to stay here

Karen, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The staff in the hotel and restaurant were extremely friendly and helpful. Loved that my room was ready early, and I could go right in. The room was spacious, and the amenities were great (drinks included coffee, tea and sodas) that were included. Also, like that they had a free shuttle to the Blue Lagoon.
Tammy, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

This was a clean, quiet remote place to stay in the middle of an old lava flow. It was within 1.1 miles of the Blue Lagoon, but otherwise, isolated. It was expensive with no pool, spa, etc. The staff were very nice and helpful.

Perfect stop for the first night. The Dinner at the restaurant is awesome.

Great proximity to Blue Lagoon, great spot for a family of four.
Casey, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Shocked to have been asked to pay 611.00 for a subpar room that had a view of the parking lot. In Chicago, for this amount of money I would have a hotel room facing Lake Michigan and high end amenities throughout and with a pool.

The staff here is amazing. They are so kind and helpful! It’s walkable to the blue lagoon, but they also offer shuttle service which is super nice. If you’re looking to save some money but want to stay near blue lagoon this place is a great option.
