    We thought we could have the breakfast but was told at the service we did not. Other travelers also turned away. Suggest being clear at check in.

    Close to the airport and good to explore the Reykjanes and volcano area. Nice personal. We checked in at our first vacation day after arrival, had a nice soup for dinner right at the hotel and got up early to start our unforgettable volcano hike.

    Very helpful and friendly owner, with Icelandic wit and economy of speech. Clean, simple rooms, of good taste. I had a shared bathroom which was kept very clean and did not miss at all a private one. Breakfast buffet is plentiful. Considering the prices in general in Iceland, the value for money of this hotel is fantastic. I would definitely stay again here. If you are a good walker, you can walk straight from the hotel to the Fagradasfjall volcano! At the kind request of the owner, hereby the instructions: Leave the hotel and head left down the road (south-west). Continue for about 700m until the end of the paved road, then head south-east on a dirt road for 100m to pass under the highway. Right after passing under the bridge you will see the start of the "SKOFV" path, marked by numbered orange poles every 50m or so. Follow it for about 2.5 hours, though incredible, moon-like landscapes, mostly flat. At around pole no. 124, you will find the first pole of another trail, "RAND". Follow RAND to the southeast, for about 2 hours, until you reach the usual volcano path that leads from the car parking to the viewpoints A/B. Then, follow the crowd. The whole hike from the Vogar Hotel to the final viewpoint of the volcano took me 5 hours, in total solitude and silence (well, apart from the last 30min in the volcano crowds). One of the best hikes in my life. Another tip for Iceland: The taxi fares are exorbitant. Don't hesitate to use the public buses, or hitch-hike. I hitch-hiked a lot, it may take some time but eventually some kind soul (usually Icelanders) will pick you up.

    Simple, economical hotel close the the pool in Vogar (which is open until 9pm in summer). Shared bathrooms were clean and pleasant. Very friendly man at reception. I mentioned I would need a taxi early the next day and he came to check that I had succeeded. He also let me know that the local restaurant was closed and offered an option to cook in the hotel.

    Not really next door to anything. So location is great from perspective of Blue Lagoon and Volcano but the actual location is not great.

    Wonderful Quiet Dark room! Family owned! Perfect for the day of arrival or the night before a morning departure. It is close to the Blue Lagoon and the active volcano. Much more reasonable price that many of the drab hotels in Keflavik. We actually drove into Reykjavik our first night in Iceland but parking is an extra $30/day. Fun to spend one night there but this place is family owned. Clean dark. And we got a private bathroom.

    I loved staying here - and would return. The accommodations were exactly what I expected.

    Wish there were blackout curtains on the door. When you went from the bedroom into the entrance hall the light woke whoever was still sleeping. AND that's the absolute only thing I would add.

    We chose to stay in an out of the way place instead of staying in Reykjavik. Vogar seemed the perfect spot. Sitting between the airport and Reykjavik, the stillness of the town was welcoming. The room was warm and welcoming. The bed very comfortable. There were blackout curtains, down duvets and down pillows. After the noise of NYC, it was wonderful to relax. Check in was simple and the gentleman at the desk, friendly.

    Room was packed with furniture - was booked for 3 people but had 3 beds plus bunk beds along with a desk, a small table, 4 chairs and two cabinets plus 2 bedside tables and hardly any room to move or for suitcases. Felt like it was a storeroom for spare furniture. Bathroom smelt as entered the room and didn’t have an extraction fan. No fridge or coffee/tea facilities in the room.

    Convenient for airport

    Sharing a bathroom. I didn’t realize it until afterwards. Also it is very expensive, even for Iceland for a basic room. Additionally it cost over $60 to get there with a taxi and it’s only 15 minutes from the airport. This isn’t the hotels issue but want people to know.

    After arriving after 2:30 am, it was good to have beds to sleep in.
