Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were lovely and helped us navigate the roads while being tastefully done with big picture windows. The size was decent, but just managed to fit a double bed and a single bed for our 7-year-old. The service was nice and responsive, although a bit challenging to communicate at times. The location was perfect for visiting landmarks along the South Coast and convenient for catching the ferry to the Westman Islands. The dining experience was excellent with a variety of options, including make-your-own waffles and pancakes with various toppings. Overall, a great value for money.
The hotel is in a beautiful location, ideal for seeing the Northern lights and conveniently situated for day trips along the South Coast. The rooms were very comfortable, and the food exceeded expectations with a variety of options for a delightful dining experience. The service was wonderfully helpful and focused on making our stay enjoyable.
The hotel is a perfect spot for experiencing Iceland's beauty, offering stunning mountain and waterfall views from rooms inspired by Italian design. The service is top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay. While the location is ideal for Northern Lights sightings and glacier excursions, it's a bit secluded without nearby amenities. The dining experience is satisfying, especially the varied breakfast spread, and overall, the facilities complement the natural surroundings.
