This hotel is classic Icelandic charm on full display from the time you show up, with a thorough explanation of the hotel property, and great rooms. We were upgraded for free (partly due to Orbitz status) but the apartment rooms are really perfect with a porch overlooking the ocean and river estuary. Also, you can see the westfjords from this vantage. To boot, the dinner with lamb was some of the best shank dinner entree meat I’ve ever had. I highly recommend!!

Our stay at Hotel Blonduos was lovely! The front desk woman was very kind and helpful, we had shared it was our honeymoon and they left us some sweets and wine in our room which was so thoughtful and such a nice touch! The property is very clean and clearly recently updated. Breakfast was great, and all of the common areas were thoughtfully designed and very nice! The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was also recently updated, we also had a great view of the water from our room!
