We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 nights at the hotel. Everyone was very friendly and the rooms were very comfortable. We very much appreciated the guest fridge to store some food and the coffee/beverage machine was fantastic. We had everything we needed with the local store and restaurants. We only wish the Fontan Spa was open, it was being renovated.

Very nice and convenient stay within the Golden Circle. Midpoint between Thingvellir and Geysir/Gullfoss. The hotel is nice and they offer permanent station of tea, coffee and hot chocolate which are always a plus. The Laugarvatn Lake is right behind the hotel, making it a nice view for certain rooms. I would stay here again if I was ever back in the area.

The staff was exceedingly helpful way beyond the call of duty - helping carry suitcases up to our room, checking our car tires, recommending restaurants , and welcoming us to use the lovely common room with all it’s complimentary drinks and breakfast facilities. Our room was very tiny but clean.

Great stay here, with a very clean room and excellent shower that was self contained and not open like many European showers where the water gets everywhere. Clean, and well ventilated rooms. Many dining options nearby, and the restaraunt had reasonable prices. Alas, if there was a con, the restaraunt was so popular that we couldn't get a seat due to a large party being there that night. Not a big deal as some of the local restaraunts in this town are TERRIFIC. Lindin has one of the best burgers you'll ever have, and its made from Reindeer, not to mention terrific arctic char. Icelanders know how to make their fish! Cozy stay, would stay multiple nights, thanks again.
