    Excellent hotel for the price-quality ratio if you are travelling by car

    Everything was great

    Convenient location if you flew to Keflavik, rented a car and went on a trip or vice versa. Next to the road, but quiet. Under the mountain with its own thermal springs. That's why the hotel has its own mini spa area with two thermal baths and a sauna with a panoramic window, free for visitors. Open until 10 pm, but can be longer. It's so great to relax in a thermal bath after the road. The hotel also has very nice staff, there are constant free coffee, drinks, sweets for visitors and very nice areas for drinking tea outside the room. Decent included breakfast. The rooms themselves are quite spacious and have everything you need. The hotel is an excellent choice for a car traveler in Iceland.

    Wonderful play to stay and explore south east and the golden circle from! Lovely room, great breakfast and friendly staff. We arrived late and it was very easy to self-check in. Enjoyed exploring locally especially the thermal river.

    Beautifully decorated rooms in the Icelandic countryside
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Comfort Double/Twin room
    • Stayed 1 night

    Although the room was lovely, nicely decorated and warm, since it was a very windy day, there was a draft from the window, and I found it very difficult to sleep due to the noise coming from outside. If you're a light sleeper, bring some ear plugs. Breakfast was nice, but somewhat limited if you have dietary restrictions.

    This hotel is very close to the Reykjadalur hot spring river walk, so it's ideally located to have a rest after a day out in the wilderness. Outside there are two lovely hot tubs and a sauna, with nice views over the hills. The staff was friendly and readily available to take care of any requests. Free hot drinks and snacks are available in the main hall, as there's no kettle in the rooms.

    Hot tubs were not clean. A good number of floating things were in it so we did not get in. Was looking forward to the hot tubs, but the sauna was a good replacement.

    Great price, good breakfast included. Sauna was great.

    Great hotel with a nice community vibe. Staff were really nice and helpful. Breakfast was really good and the spa facilities (sauna & hot tub) were great also. It's a good place to try and catch the Northern Lights, which we did here on our last night in Iceland! Hope you see them too :)

    When you are the first to wake up, you have to wait a while before you have hot water. But if that's all, you know the rest is just a very good place to stay.
