Staff were rude and room was tiny and dirty. There was missing baseboard, pedals for the trash were broken and there was a good inch of dust/dirt on the exhaust fan in the bathroom. The room was ungodly humid and all of our clothing felt damp. Restaurant staff was friendly and helpful. When we checked out, the gentleman at the front desk argued with us that we needed to pay our dinner bill. We had to show him the receipt that we did. Turns out he wasn’t even looking at our room which we handed him the keys (labeled with the number) and told him twice what room number we were. When he realized we had paid and it was the wrong room he entered he didn’t offer an apology. He made us feel like a criminal for no reason. Wouldn’t recommend. It was also VERY expensive for the food we ordered. $102 for an app, 2 cheeseburgers and a kids meal.

Not worth it
The door to our patio was broken and couldnt use it which was super frustrating. The bathroom felt like a prison - lighting was extremely bright and the shower was gnarly. Super overpriced for what you get but not many other options in the area…

Check in was great. Our shower did not adjust ao rainhead was the only option. The restaurant staff was not kind or welcoming. Worst of all we waited over 30 minutes to hace one of thebstaff notice they had forgotten our table and the couples table next to us as well. When they finally did come over to take our order she was rushing amd rude. The cost is a bit much but the food did taste good amd portion size was good too.

Property with the view of mountains and glacier. There are no restaurants close-by so the cost of dining is bit expensive. Overall experience is excellent.

This was the most expensive 1night stay during our 2 week vacation around Iceland. It was probably the least accommodating and we were not impressed with the rooms. We stayed here towards the end of the trip, so we knew what to expect with “Europe style rooms”. Convenient location and two restaurants inside.

Hotel is very remote which makes it a neat experience. Feedback for the management would only be that the rooms are tired. Drywall patches, cords having everywhere, sheets felt pilled. Staff were lovely and the food was great, but again I think the rooms are ready for a refresh.

This hotel looks very nice from the photos, which is why we booked it! Unfortunately, the only thing nice about this hotel is the photos and buffet/restaurant rooms. The individual guest rooms need a LOT of work. Room 46 was where we stayed and the sheets were stained, there was hair in the blankets, and we woke up multiple times in the middle of the night feeling very itchy. There was questionable wiring from the television down to the electrical outlet and multiple holes all over the walls from where lamps and decor were hung and then moved. The room was also incredibly HOT, even with the thermostat turned off and the window open all night. DO NOT STAY IN SUMMER MONTHS!!!! There are no black out curtains just a roller shade which does not filter out all light. It was VERY bright. Beautiful views of the mossy lava fields surround the hotel but there is no privacy as people walk around and in front of the patios to each room. It is very noisy, too and the walls are very thin. You can hear your neighbors sneeze.
