    The room was smaller than I expected but there were quite a few little nooks/common areas to sit which was quite nice to have a glass of wine, read my book and watch the sunset. Morning buffet was quite extensive and quite good! It was quite interesting that there was no elevator - not necessarily good or bad.

    Great location, comfortable room, delicious warm breakfast (considering usual hotels & B&Bs in Iceland serve only cold breakfast buffet). Highly recommended!

    The building and the rooms feel old, the shower curtain didn’t make a good impression, the walls are thin.

    We booked two identical rooms, but discovered that while one had an enclosed shower with glass doors, the other only had a shower curtain. Unfortunately, we noticed this late at night and were too tired to address it with the hotel.

    The main building looks nice, but we were placed in a "new building" across the road. While the rooms there were just ok, but they didn't justify the price we paid. The breakfast hall is beautiful, and the breakfast itself was excellent.

    Nothing major at all but we’d asked for a double room and were given a twin - we pushed the beds together but it annoyed me that the receptionist told me that we hadn’t requested this when I had correspondence to the contrary.

    The bedding and towels were very good quality and comfortable. Also liked that we could adjust the temperature in the room.

    Room was on the small size, including the bathroom, which was tiny. However, if staying for 1 night I guess it will do just fine.

    The on site restaurant was pretty pricey. There is no elevator/lift so you need to bring your bags up a flight of stairs.

    Very clean and modern. Staff provided extra towels etc. in request. Has a restaurant on site that’s open until 10

    There is the main hotel and then 2 buildings apart from the main one. Walls are thin and rooms very small. The shower was not enclosed, just a curtain, so water was all over the bathroom floor. Expensive for one night but we came in the high season so expected to pay high price.

    Rooms were very clean, beds comfortable.

    There is a main hotel and then adjacent blocks - arriving late in the rain meant we unloaded the liggages only to then have to drag them across the street up the stairs…

    The desk stays open late. Time passes so differently when the sun doesn't really set. We took longer at several stops during the day and didn't get to the hotel until just before the 11 pm cutoff. This is a beautiful hotel, I wish we could have enjoyed it more. The breakfast was great even though by US standards it is probably expensive. The location has beautiful views.

    There is nothing we didn't like.

    My son and I had a very nice 1-night stay at this hotel. Unfortunately is was storm weather this day (19m/s) with terrible rain aswell, so we didn't explore the area around the hotel or enjoy the terasse. But if the weather had been better the hotel is located in a beautiful place. There is a Netto close to the hotel as well. The room var not very big, men it was clean and nice. Very sweet staff. There is a nice restaurant with reasonable prices. My son was very impressed with the pizza :-) The breakfast buffet was the best we tried in all of Iceland. Very, very nice.

    The breakfast was overpriced for what you get. There is some construction going on around the hotel that takes away your view. Also, there are multiple buildings outside the hotel- not attached. We stayed in a building not overlooking the coast- that was misleading

    The location is amazing. Clean rooms. Blackout curtains.
