A lovely little hotel, in a spectacular location. The view over the lake from room 11 was just beautiful especially in the snow. The couple who run it are fabulous. The spread for breakfast was ample, good variety with the added option of freshly cooked eggs and bacon. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable, its one of... More

Hotel Reykjahlid gives you a ringside seat to Lake Myvatn and whatever the sky above it is doing at any given time. We stayed there for two nights in October. One night it snowed. On the other I saw the most beautiful, intense, long-lasting display of the northern lights that I could ever hope to see. We had a room... More

We arrived late in the afternoon on September 9th with no booking and were lucky to get two rooms on the top floor. 3 flights of stairs were no problems for us. Our friends did get one of the lake view rooms which was very very lovely (our carpark views were fine too!). FYI - there is a small lounge... More

I loved this place! Cute small hotel, with large and cosy rooms (very comfortable beds) and wonderful view to the Myvatn lake. Very near all lake Myvatn attractions (Myvatn Nature baths about 3 km away) as well as Dettifoss water falls, and also a great location to do day- or halfdaytrips for example to Akureyri or Husavik (the "whale watching...

Whats to say, it's OK. Rooms are small and don't have a desk, but they are clean. There aren't many amenities in the room, but it has a lake view (seems most do). The front desks seems nice, but when we 1st arrived the hotel was locked and no one around. If this happens to you go over to hotel... More

This was probably our favourite hotel in Iceland with a great breakfast, free coffee and tea all day, free wireless internet and a guest computer and very friendly and helpful staff. It is very conveniently located for all of Myvatn's many attractions. Huge shower enclosure in bathroom.

Stay in room 11 at the top as others say, this is the best of all rooms, and really the only reason to stay at this inn, for the view, if you have no view of the lake then it is not as good i think. Excellent couple running the inn in this winter season. They could not have been... More

I had Room 11 and LOVED it!! Third floor and no elevator, but I loved it! :) New management now. I was so happy to hear that the rate I got under the old manager was no longer! It was reduced by a few thousand kronas! So thankful. The guy and girl that work there (not sure if they are... More

The hotel recently changed management so you can safely ignore the earlier reviews on reservation hiccups. We had no issues communicating with hotel management and received a timely response each time. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a prettier view around Myvatn with a similar comfort and service level. The hotel is very simply decorated but incredibly clean... More

From the moment we arrived the staff were very welcoming and good fun, pointing out things to do and what the weather was likely to be doing etc. Unfortunately they weren't to know that the next day would bring a huge snowstorm (very unusual we are told for September) which kept all guests pretty much trapped in doors. Throughout the... More
