Beds could be a little more comfy.

Check in and out was very easy. Hotel had a bar with happy hour. Highly recommend eating dinner at the hotel restaurant. One of the best meals of our trip. The buffet breakfast had a hood selection of food options.

The gravel at the carpark was rough and not paved which made it hard to wheel luggages around.

The close proximity to the information centre was really handy. The hotel itself is well equipped and breakfast was really sumptuous for a continental breakfast.

Breakfast could have more variety.

Easy check-in and check-out. Comfortable rooms with good bathroom. Great location near glaciers. We also spotted northern lights from our room :)

The room was small but the real issue was that everything is old, uninviting, old carpet on the floor,old bed frames, old bedding, old&sinking mattress, definitely did not have a nice feeling of fresh&clean. Bathroom looked somehow renovated but the smell was terrible and persistent. There is a newer building. After reading other people reviews, at the time of booking I specifically asked for a room in the new building. Based on our experience, I am not sure the request was honoured even though I made the reservation several months in advance. Price is high and not justified by what they offer, you mostly pay for the location only.

Excellent location close to glaciers, quiet, very good breakfast, heater in the room working very well

The bed wasn't that comfy :(

The hotel is a 10-minute drive from the Skaftafall National Park. It was very comfortable to start the day. The breakfast is fine, and the staff are very lovely and welcoming. Everything was clean.

Typical hotel, nothing unexpected. Most staff were very friendly. Breakfast was very good and had a large variety of foods to choose from

We asked for two 2 bedrooms for 2 couples and had to get one 3 bed room which was quite a lot more expensive. The rooms, even though expensive were quite basic in appearance and 2 single beds, not a double bed as preferred.

We liked the location, it was close to the glacier and the walk behind the hotel was interesting. It was easy to find. We had a lovely dinner at the gourmet restaurant that night and it was very good.

The rooms are very basic, don’t expect much in terms of modern amenities - quite tired decor in the bedroom and bathroom. However, this wouldn’t put us off staying again as everything else far outweighed this!

The location is stunning! Just a short walk away from the glacial tongue. The staff were SO lovely. They helped us get checked in early as we came back from a hike soaked through - I feel awful as I don’t recall the woman’s name, but she had black fair and fair skin. She was fantastic, really made us feel welcome! The FOOD too, amazing. Not cheap but absolutely delicious - really exceeded our expectations! Beautifully presented, it felt like fine dining but with better portions! Our room was spotlessly clean and comfortable.

Good hotel with excellent but expensive restaurant

Very friendly and helpful staff; good breakfast

Maybe a bit sturdier pillows could help.

It's one of the 2 hotels we stayed in Iceland. In that area you don't have too many options. But nevertheless the stay turned out to be perfect stay. We arrived a bit early around 15:00; they let us check-in early. Then we did a short hike to glacier behind the hotel. (It's a must if you have time) The room was good; beds were comfy. Breakfast is one of the best we had in Iceland.

The pricing is way above the value for money. They just charge you for the location because there are not a lot of other options

The proximity to Skaftafell and glacier lagoon is the best aspect. Staff were friendly and the breakfast was great

Overpriced for what is a very basic room.

The location is wonderful. Breakfast buffet was good. Beds comfortable.

Very comfortable beds and heating in the room, rooms could be a bit bigger. The breakfast was very good. The close proximity to the glacier is a big advantage.
