It was a lovely hotel, restaurant on the lake was fabulous with great view (despite the rain), and delicious too. We didn't have to head to downtown for a meal for our last night in Iceland. Clean, spacious room, and felt very Viking-like. Super nice staff, I highly recommend. The road was winding to get there, but after a week on the island, we weren't deterred. We'd go back again.

The room itself was quite spacious and very clean. We had amazing views of the sunrise in the morning however the road down to the hotel is quite gravelly and bendy so extra caution required when driving at night. The hotel restaurant was ok but the service was quite slow.

This hotel is a rare gem. It is quiet and tranquil, ideally located just outside Reykjavik. Every room has a lovely view across the lake with walking paths if you want to take a stroll. Even the common areas provide great views and comfortable couches to relax on with family and friends. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. They gave us excellent guidance so for where to go to view the nearby eruption (8/22/24) as well as the local cultural festival (8/24/24) in the city. I strongly recommend including the breakfast with your stay. They provide a great variety of options including both hot and cold options as well as fresh baked bread and pastries... and the food is excellent. We also had dinner there twice and those meals were also amazing.

This hotel is nothing like the countless concrete boxes I've stayed in over the years. It's nestled next to a lake with amazing views from the rooms and restaurant. The rooms are spacious and it is obvious that a great deal of thought went into them. The staff made us feel at home from the moment we walked in, despite arriving six hours before check-in time with an ill member of our party. The breakfast buffet put the buffet on the cruise ship to shame. The property is just east of Reykjavik, which made it a perfect home base for our explorations of southwestern Iceland without the need of navigating Reykjavik proper. Bonus points for getting the volcano to erupt the day we arrived :).

We were skeptical from the looks of the outside when we drove up but our room ended up being very nice. We were there in July. We knew there would probably not be air conditioning and the room was HOT. Wouldn’t have been a problem except you can’t open the windows because of all the little bugs. There are no screens on the windows or sliding door to keep them out.

Great customer service. We enjoyed a comfortable and quiet stay. We had a delicious dinner at the on site restaurant. The continental breakfast (not included) was delicious and full of options. Family friendly. Many comfortable locations to enjoy the surrounding views. FYI …The desk clerk mentioned to let him know if we were going to use the hot tub as this would take approx. 1 hour to heat up. We didn’t end up using the hot tub.

Room was unique but had a weird odor in the room (similar to cat urine). The water also smelled bad which was weird because we had been in Iceland for a week without issue.
