    Expensive with smallish rooms but consistent with other hotels throughout Iceland.

    Beautiful facilities, friendly staff, excellent food. Would give the restaurant a 5 star rating.

    We had dinner at the restaurant and it was convenient, but an okay experience. We arrived as most people were leaving, but the staff was still busy and seemed a overwhelmed. The food and service were okay for the price.

    Location was great and we enjoyed landscape around. The hotel was modern and clean. Spacious, comfortable, and great shower. Breakfast was amazing.

    I understand that it is not the tradition in Iceland, but I would appreciate a king bed (instead of two twins pushed together) and large sheets with separate blankets that can be removed. The bedding is too hot here, and there are no options.

    Some issues with service. For instance, they only clean your room daily if you specifically ask for it at reception, and when they do so they do a very superficial job (for example they don’t hoover the room). And they overcharged me because somebody had put their dinner on my room, which thankfully I noticed before it was too late.

    Incredible location. Very nice modern building. Lovely bar and lounge area. Very nice area with sauna and hot tubs.

    Pricey dinner and breakfast.

    We loved that there was a hotel close to the glacier lagoon and the glacier hiking we wanted to do up by Skaftafell. We loved the outdoor hot tubs and spa area and the robes were fun as we got out of the hot tubs into the cool air. The rooms were comfortable too!

    Breakfast bus-girls : they wander about like a tightly coiled spring with the singular objective of tearing down the buffet at 10:00:01 am. For a nice place there’s no need to jump on the clients like that just to hurry the process … relax! Food is pricey. Very good, but pricey.

    Room was great, very comfortable, well appointed. Housekeeping A+. Front desk A+.

    A bit pricey, and a bit isolated, which we expected from the comments.

    Superb hotel. Travelling with 2 teens, the rooms were adjacent and with a communicating door. Loved the hot tub and the views from it and the sauna. The dinner was fabulous.

    The hotel is super stylish and made me think I was in a film location. It is comfortable, everything you need is provided and the staff were brilliant. Breakfast was excellent and my family made use of the sauna and gym. Whoever had the idea to offer a wake up call for the aurora borealis is a genius. The location is stunning and there is even a waterfall a short walk behind the hotel (see photos).
