Thoristun Apartments

A seating area and flat-screen TV feature in all apartments at Thoristun Apartments. Each apartment has a bathroom with shower. Some have a private terrace. Best accommodation during our 10-day trip in Iceland. Clean, cosy, quiet, and comfortable, with a nice and tidy kitchen in the room. We got a welcome message from the host with tips for travellers, which we appreciated. A guest book in the apartment was a very cosy detail!

Hveragerði

Found by bubbling geothermal springs in Hveragerdi, this hotel offers an outdoor pool and 2 hot tubs and sauna. All rooms include bathrobes, slippers and a 32-inch flat-screen TV. Wi-Fi is free.

Frost and Fire Hotel’s rooms feature bright, modern décor and work by various Icelandic artists. All have wooden floors, large beds and a private bathroom. Some rooms offer views of the River Varmá. I really want to come back. Our room was just beyond. We had wonderfull view on the nature, pool was near and we liked it so much. Selection on breakfast was great. I ate too much I guess. Best stay on Iceland. And the local cat...she is one big fluff of cuteness. Thank you for pleasant stay.
