The staff was so kind and attentive! Room and bathroom were clean and tidy. Breakfast was delicious and offered a wide variety of breakfast options. The hot tub and sauna felt so good after a long day of hiking and driving the ring road. We liked that it was quiet and off the Ring Road a bit.

This was one of our favorite stays in Iceland, mainly because this is where we got to see the most incredible Northern lights! The place was nice and cozy. Very little outside lightning to allow guests to wait for the northern lights. Wonderful place, could’ve had more bacon, but loved our stay here!

Great view from the hotel, outside the city so you can catch Northern Lights. Great breakfast, awesome ratio price/quality. Very friendly staff and nice amenities. We really enjoyed our time here. Small Suggestion to add conditioner+shampoo for the shower

Loved it!!

So so nice. We all agreed that we wished we were staying here for more than a single night. The hot tub in the evening after a long drive was very very nice and the general atmosphere of this place is fantastic. Would recommend!

Room was spacious and comfortable. A bit too warm in the room and there is only a tiny window that is openable. The breakfast was very good with many options. Two things that were annoying: Hallways have wooden floors so it is a bit noisy when someone walks by the room. There is a tv but only two channels with very poor reception (rabbit ears on roof??). Otherwise all good, especially for the price.
