Reviews
Highly recommended.
Calm and cosy atmosphere
Friendly staff
Breakfast ok (similar to other hotels in Iceland)
Good staff.
Room was quite ok, on the older side, nothing to shout about. They even have hot tubs which we didn’t use as we were busy with the northern lights.
Room rate came with breakfast and it is just so worth it given how expensive food can be in Iceland. There were hot options and cold cuts too, along with a DIY waffles station. Coffee, tea and biscuits were available the entire day too.
Booked via OTA with discount hence it’s very value for money. Would come here again for sure!
