Absolutely amazing. There are three areas to stay. Cabins, long single story building with private little outlooks/access to woods, and a hotel type. We stayed in the one level building and it was incredible. So quiet and clean. Large rooms. Perfect views for the lights right out your room. Staff was SO nice. Fav hotel in Iceland.

Excellent and best included breakfast options by far in Iceland! Hot tubs were very useful after a tiring day hike and it felt heavenly. Very large spacious rooms and a good sized bathroom.

Best place Ive stayed in Iceland. The staff were very friendly and the owner was such a sweetheart. It has a bed and breakfast feel and made me feel like I was right at home. If you are looking for something that isnt a standard impersonal hotel this is the place.
