Being the only hotel at the airport, it's obvious you are in a captive market at captive market prices. Way too expensive for what you get, and the food menu at the small restaurant is quite basic but again overly expensive!

It's the only hotel within walking distance of the airport. It's also walking distance to the car rental return.

There are few options in the area and this property takes advantage of that. The stay is fine and serves the purpose of being at the airport. The price isn’t just a premium it is distasteful, and simply you feel taken advantage of. Motel quality at a 5 star price.

This was perfect for getting in on a late flight and starting our adventure fresh the next morning. The room was comfortable and the breakfast had a lot of good options.

Unfortunately, we were not very satisfied with our stay at Hotel Aurora. After a full day of sightseeing, we were looking forward to resting before our early morning flight at 6:00 AM. However, upon check-in, we were informed that there was no hot water and it would not be available until 8:00 PM. This did not happen, and hot water was only available from 9:30 PM. Additionally, the heating was not working until then, so the room was quite cold. The main reason we chose an airport hotel was to get a good night’s sleep before our flight, which unfortunately did not happen. For the price of $350 per night, we expected much better service. The only positive aspect was the breakfast available from 4:00 AM.

Nice hotel walking distance from KEF airport. Hotel is situated in the middle of parking lots so no activities or good options other than the limited selection within the hotel itself.

Room was unbearably noisy from 4am until after 11pm. We paid extra for early check-in so we could catch some zzzs after an overnight flight. We were put in room 208 over the dining and reception area. We couldn’t sleep for more than five minutes without loud noises of chairs scraping a floor and banging. The front desk was no help and said it must be guests around us, but it wasn’t. We knew that for sure at 4am when the breakfast started and the noise started. We should have been comped something, but we’re stonewalled by in unreceptive staff. If you must stay here, don’t stay on the second floor.

You can't do better for convenience to catch a flight to/from Iceland. The restaurant is not good. The worst dinner of my 2.5 week stay in Iceland.
