Super Hotel, aber schwer zu finden

Das Hotel ist ganz neu. Hat geschätzte 60 Zimmer. Frühstück gibt es von 4 Uhr früh an. Kaffee den ganzen Tag gratis. Alles sehr sauber. Personal sehr hilfsbereit. Hinweis: Navis kennen die Stadt Keflavik nicht. Man muss Reykjanes und dann die Straße Lindarbraut eingeben.

Hostel in der Nähe vom Flughafen

Location: Liegt ein wenig Abseits, aber schön Nahe zum Flughafen.
Für Übernachtungen, um nahe am Flughafen zu sein reicht es völlig aus.
