Our family, of course, stayed two nights while sightseeing day nearby attractions. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The breakfast was good and served early enough for us to leave for our to get to locations for our tours. We were able to see the northern lights from the roof deck of the hotel.

Although not include included, it is part of the hotel, the restaurant for dinner was OK but not great. It had three or four items for the main dish and one or two were to be served cold. The restaurant has a great view of the valley, but for choices and other I would look elsewhere.

We really enjoyed the hotel. The room was very nice. The showers were hot and the breakfast was amazing. The only comment we have is we would recommend that they put some type of non-skid on the ramp going down from the entrance. My wife slipped and hit her head on the ramp. And as we were leaving, a young girl, also slipped right out in front of us. So I know that the staff had mentioned that they tried putting out signs and salting it down and things like that, but I think that if you put nonskid Tape or something on the ramp that would help a lot. The stairs are one thing they could probably use it also, but the ramp definitely was very slippery.

Restaurant and breakfast were excellent. Lovely options. The tomato paprika soup was wonderful and the bread that went with it was amazing.

We understand it was very busy the days we stayed with tours and many other travelers, which made booking individual rooms very difficult to come by. But with this limitation, we still were able to make it work as the staff was able to set up the room to accommodate two individual travelers. Much appreciated.

Hot breakfast. Friendly staff. Very clean. Nice location. Our room was spacious, but it was a deluxe room. And there were no deluxe rooms near the elevator.

Very pricey. For over$400 US per night, I would have expected if not bell service, at least a bell cart to bring in our luggage. We were on our own, which as a handicapped person, was challenging.

Comfortable, friendly staff, clean, and a fantastic breakfast with lots of options. It's a great view from upstairs in the common areas. Check in/out was easy and we ate like kings. We'd absolutely stay there again.

This location seemed popular with tour groups, and our room was positioned so that we couldn't really get natural light without having passers by basically looking into it. It would be nice the have a privacy curtain that still allowed some natural night.

Restaurant and bar were excellent....very nice buffet for both dinner and breakfast that allowed us to have a wide variety including several Icelandic options. This was the most expensive hotel on our trip, but also the nicest. Really enjoyed our stay.

Not sure. It's extremely remote which might be a problem for some people, but wasn't an issue for us. It was a convenient location for us to do a glacier hike the next day at Vatnajokull before driving on to Jokulsarlon.

This was an excellent hotel, the room was spacious and the view was lovely. We ate in the restaurant and thoroughly enjoyed the burger and soup. The breakfast choice was varied and plenty of it. The staff were most helpful when I asked for hot water for my flask. Overall this Hotel did exceed my expectations. Highly recommended.

I liked everything.

breakfasts are spectacular! this is why we rate it high overall. also easy to find, clean, good Wi-Fi

I paid for the rooms in advance and it was not a nice surprise that I had to give my full credit card details written down on the reception “just in case”. with that data “a case” of leaking the money can happen to anyone even if you don’t break anything((

We loved that there was a trail around the hotel that included an elf church and elf city and other cultural sites. The food in the restaurant was delicious! It was possibly the best meals we had during our trip. The reception staff were the friendliest and most accommodating that we encountered. The rooms were comfortably sized. We also loved the enclosed rooftop terrace.

We didn't like it when a large group of travelers took over the space. It is a cozy hotel and these travelers impinged on our enjoyment. They took over the intimate dining area as well as the rooftop terrace with their bright phones and turning on the lights while were trying to spot the Northern lights. This was likely beyond control of hotel. But it demonstrates that everything that was within control of hotel was awesome.

- Nice breakfast selection and plenty of space to accomodate many guests. Quality of the food was also very good - Friendly staff - Location is good, however only if you have a car. 15 min drive to Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon and about 1h 30 min to Diamond Beach and Jökulsárlón Lagoon - Rooms were quite spacious and modern - Large parking space in front of the hotel

- Dinner buffet is offered, though quite expensive (7500 ISK per person)
