Hotel Gígur by Keahotels in Myvatn

Not a big room, but what a view. We were lucky to have a room with a view on the lake and the sheep walking in front of our window outside.
Nice breakfast and dinner, the room where you eat has a great view.
Only the smell from the water in the shower wasn't pleasurable, but hey say you have this at more places in this area because of the sulfur.

Wow!! One of our favorite stays in Iceland. We unfortunately got a flat driving to the hotel, and it was pouring rain, and we got delayed about 2 hours arriving to hotel taking away our only night experience- but the hotel was accommodating and checked us in no problem. The breakfast. Holy wow. The breakfast was a masterpiece!! As a hungry American in Iceland, this was beyond amazing lol portions can be rather small and expensive overall, so you can understand my delight seeing this glorious spread hahaha we spent some time by the beautiful and romantic lake, and had to hurry off to our next destination, I am so sad about missing the first night enjoyment, but that is how traveling goes sometimes and I can only say it built up my desire to come back that much more. I will 100% come back here one day. It’s a great launch pad into the west fjords if you’re trying to go there.

Very nice hotel, pretty well situated when spending few nights in the area (and less expensive as well than others). Beautiful view over the lake and next to the craters' trail. Food is quite expensive but very good (no small portions). Our small twin bedroom was enough for us and had clean private bathroom. Breakfast was included and great!

Great stay for the value, ignore the haters. I'm a pilot and live in hotels half of my life. I stayed early June, so perhaps it was an early season rate, but for $140 USD I have no complaints. The room was small but adequate, the bathroom was clean and had newer amenities, the radiator controls worked, and the view is exceptional, especially in the restaurant.

The restaurant offers a dinner items ranging from US$30 to US$100, typical of Icelandic restaurants. If you are looking to eat on a budget there is a grocery in town with limited hours.

Yes, the water had a smell to it due to hydrogen sulfide in the ground water, but so does every location around the lake, it is an active geothermal area.

Yes, the bathroom is small so if you take a long shower and don't let it vent it *could* smell musty after a while... but this was not my experience.
