We had a great stay here! The room was recently refurbished and was really nice. Check-in and out was really easy (self service) and we had an amazing dinner and fantastic breakfast in the restaurant (a separate building to the rooms). The staff at dinner and breakfast were efficient and friendly too. It’s located in a cute little village with stunning scenery. Would recommend a night or two here!

A bit cumbersome to get key from a restaurant and then go to property . Kids double bed was in a confined niche . Most restaurants are shut on Monday and Tuesday

We enjoyed this hotel and the area. Self check in as this property is one of three and there’s a central office. Hotel was clean. Breakfast was not included but was available at the main hotel of this brand (one brand, 3 hotel houses). Breakfast was pretty expensive relative to other Iceland hotels. We would stay at this property again.

The hotel is located in the center of the town. They have serval buildings in the town, and you would receive information about which building you would stay. They have a restaurant to offer delicious local food.
