Reviews
We had an absolutely fantastic time during our trip with friends!
The service was the biggest highlight: the staff was super courteous and truly made us feel welcome. The whole place was immaculately clean.
We loved starting our mornings with the delicious and abundant breakfast, which offered something for everyone. And the outdoor jacuzzi was spectacular—the perfect way to relax together after a day of exploring.
Room is decent size with everything you could ask for. None of the hotel supplies lotion but this do. (Not sure if they will continue have the supply but at least during my stay there's 🤭).
Two big tub in the middle. We did not experience this hot tub as the weather is too cold for us to strip off our clothing 😂.
Very good place for aurora watching. Quiet, minimal light pollution. There are Icelandic horses too 🤭.
Only the soundproofing could be better.
I would like to highlight the cleanliness of the space and the included breakfast (although it doesn't have much variety, it's a nice plus in Iceland that it's included).
Since we arrived late and the weather outside was quite bad, we didn't have the opportunity to see/try the jacuzzi.
In terms of location, the hotel is quite isolated, still being a few kilometers from the nearest town.
The rooms were frigid! The interior walls were thin from room to room to the extent it is easy to hear your neighbor cough. It is possible that it is not the most well insulated.
Woke up late, the breakfast was closed.
The room was clean and comfy, the beds was comfortable and soft. The other guest were nice and helpfull.
Overall really nice place, we would visit it again.
