We liked the layout of our room. It had sliding doors for more privacy for the double bed. Two single beds were in the main space with a desk and coat rack. The dining area overlooks the lake. Staff were friendly.

Easy check in, nicely designed hotel and room. Comfy common area with complimentary tea, coffee and water. Nice bathrooms. I would only suggest better black out curtains for the long and bright summer days. Friendly staff. Would stay here again for sure!

Check-in was easy. Was sent an email a few days before with all needed instructions. Staff was very friendly. We ended up eating dinner at the hotel and it was delicious! If we had stayed a second night I would have definitely eaten there again. Only negative was room was very loud. You could hear everything happening in the hallway and nearby rooms/areas.

This was an average property, but convenient along our travels. Room was very small. Beds were not comfortable. No washcloths were given (I understand it is a European thing, but other hotels did have them in the rooms). No hair dryer in room - had to ask at the desk if you want one. We did not eat at the hotel restaurant, but did down the street at the Babylon Bistro which was really good.

would stay despite minor issue

We loved the location for the Golden Circle. Great breakfast buffet and dinner. Walking distance from Laugarvatn Geothermal Pool (highly recommended). The staff was great. The only issue was ventilation. The weather in Iceland during the week was in the 70's!!! Poor ventilation in room. One small window to open, very warm/stuffy. We has a very small room, no closet or dresser. Only one rack of hooks. They could add more hooks in room and more hooks in bathroom for towels. The bathroom was small, no space for personal items. The glass shower was not sealed properly and water poured out of the bottom. Had to get more towels to mop up floor. No television-which wasn't an issue but sometimes nice to watch some TV after long day of exploring area. We went to the Laugarvatn Geothermal baths on the second day-highly recommended. Ended up showering there. Also went to restaurant Linden on 2nd night after geothermal pools. Great meal.

Nice Stay in the Area!

Friendly & helpful staff and the hotel had beautiful views of the lake and nearby mountain. We opted for the breakfast which included fresh baked bread, and the downstairs area was relaxing to read. The local thermal springs were also walking distance. Since we were there end of May, I would recommend a sleeping mask for the outdoor light because our room didn’t have blackout curtains and ear plugs because you could hear noise from the road.
