Reviews of Frost and Fire Hotel 4 stars

Friendly staff, great breakfast, unique location

Unfortunately due to geothermal activity you could smell the sulfur but it was not too bad or intrusive

Excellent staff. Super communicable. Very helpful. Clean spacious rooms. Bathrobes and slippers provided for the pools. Hot springs and pools were lovely. Nice views of the river and geothermal activity. Amazing location.

It was perfect.

Hot spring pool outside with gorgeous view

Everything was great!

Staff, breakfast, location, room comfort, all great.

The pictures are very flattering vs reality. It’s a nice place but … very different than the professional pics.

Location of the Hotel was excellent, just by the river and all around you can see steam going out of the earth! Clean and comfortable rooms. Polite and helpful personnel.

The hot tub was wonderful and relaxing, and so was the location directly at the river with the option for a cold plunge. Very friendly staff at the hotel make the stay nice, and the breakfast was wonderful too. A very nice dine-in restaurant is also part of the hotel (we didn't try it).

The room as well as some of the facilities are a bit outdated. Our room had a small shower and bathroom, and unfortunately there was also some mold in the bathroom as well as the window frame. I didn't look inviting. Same applies to the sauna and relax room, which seemed a bit dated and uninviting to us.

The location is just superb, right next to a river, with rolling hills behind. The hot tubs are great - naturally heated as far as I could tell and our skin felt amazing afterwards. The curtains were nice and dark, and the sound of the river flowing past at night made for a good sleep.

The only thing I could possibly complain about is the expense. As a family of four, we had to get two rooms, which made for an expensive stay. But still worth it as a special treat for the family.

Nice room.

One hot tub was not hot at all. The staff was not responsive to this.

Hot-Pot and Sauna

Room 1 and 2: Noise from the hot air / steam hole in front of the hotel

Location and grounds were incredible. An amazing spot to stay if you are interested in exploring geothermal areas.

Accommodations were very basic, but clean and comfortable. It was just right for us, but not be for those that perfer luxury.

The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. Unfortunatly, we arrived on a very rainy evening and the rain persisted through the following morning so we could do any walking around. If the weather would have been just a bit nicer (i.e. raining instead of a downpour) there is a lovely river and what looked like a nice hike that we would have loved to explore. We ate in town (not at the hotel) but it is convenietly located near several restaurants.

The spa (two small hot pools, sauna) with a view over the river and geothermal activity of the hill, the restaurant (not included, you pay extra for dinner, but it was really incredible)

Completely overpriced : they make it look like a fancy hotel, but the bathroom is minuscule and dirty, there's no place to hang your towels, the floor gets flooded with every shower. We had a corner room with view over the river which is nice, but one side was towards the restaurant so you have to keep the curtains closed at all times. The breakfast buffet was not well maintained (we had to ask for cutlery, the hot water for tea was empty). We do not recommend it unfortunately.

Perfect location, with amazing views, great hikes from our cottage, loved the breakfast, hot tubs, and more.

On the river.

Was our last of 9 different hotels and by far our least favorite. Definitely looks way nicer in pictures. Gave me a creepy vibe… I would’ve left but it was too late to find another hotel. Walls are paper thin. The confirmation says checkin runs until 10pm but I received an email before 9pm saying staff would no longer be available to help us check in. They were kind about it, but still was a little off-putting. Also they do not serve breakfast until 8am and we had to leave early so we did not get breakfast. Everywhere else we stayed served breakfast at 7am. Would not recommend this hotel.

Hot tubs and sauna

Dirty balcony with broken chairs, uncut grass and smelly relaxing room

This was my second time at this hotel and my 5th in Iceland. It is really worth a splurge for the early am or late night hottub on the river and stellar breakfast.

Wish the hotub were open all night with super quiet hours.

Great location with wonderful views. Short drive to longest zip wire in Ice-land (not my thing normally but it was actually good fun with stunning views) and walk to the natural thermal river. Walking distance through the reserve to the waterfall and gardens. Friendly l staff. Great breakfast and on-site restaurant for dinner. Relaxation room.

The hot-tub could have been warmer.

Hotel location is excellent

The facility is a bit of aging
