4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 September 2011

The rooms were tiny and disappointing, though the setting made up for this somewhat, saw one of the most beautiful sunsets there on the veranda overlooking the lake. The hotel is in a very nice setting and the common area was pleasant. The staff was lovely and very very kind and friendly and the food was good, this helped compensate... More

During an organized bus tour through Iceland, I stayed at this hotel for one night. This was probably the smallest room I have ever stayed in. As a solo traveller I got a single room, and the room was about the size of twice the (single) bed, meaning half the room was taken up by the bed. The rest had... More

This appeared to be the worst stay for us on our trip around Iceland. We spent there 2 nights July 30 and 31. Our room was supposed to be for 2 people. Apart from having 2 tight beds and 2 sets of towels in tiny bathroom nothing hinted much that room wass designated for 2 people. In fact it was... More

The front desk clerk went out of her way to help us print, scan and send an important document that we needed to get out. We really appreciated it, as services can be difficult to get in Iceland. The dinner was expensive, but good in the hotel´s restaurant. The location is wonderful, and the room was clean and well kept.... More

The best thing of this hotel is that is located just close to the pseudocraters of Myvatn Lake. The dinner room has a great views over the whole lake. The people in reception is very friendly. The problem is that the price is too high comparing with the quality of the room. It was possible to see "Northern Lights" from... More

There were hundreds of dead flies in the windowsill Service in restaurant sucks, starter was served at the same time as the main dish. Espressomachine was out of order, IrishCoffee was on the menue but... More
