Restaurant staff was abysmal. Restaurant was nearly empty, there were 3 waitstaff. We had to ask for our drinks AFTER the food had arrived. It still took nearly 10 minutes to receive our drinks. And we could see the staff standing around talking!

Biggest room we stayed at in Iceland!! Lots of shelves ,drawers and closet space. We spent 15 nights at 15 hotels ,so we are experts in hotels. Conveiently located near many sights. The hotel food for dinner we thought was a bit expensive. Our waiter from Ukraine spoiled the hotel feeling for us with his attitude. Hopefully having a bad day.

Upon entering the building we found a broken down car in the parking lot (flat tires), a camper up on blocks. The outside was not maintained. Once we checked in to the room we immediately decided to leave. Smell! The staff would not refund us any money and were rude. Between the time we checked in and left (15 minutes max) someone had broken a glass bottle in the entrance driveway. I did go back in to tell the staff.

It was alright, but it is like a dorm room and less like a hotel. Supper option was a buffet but very limited for vegetarians, and extremely expensive.

Hotel Bifrost staff was friendly and engaged, their dining and lobby area was clean and comfortable to relax in. The rooms were clean if a little dated, but a large amount of space to unpack if you were staying longer. Very large area for shower which was a pleasant surprise. We were overlooking some nearby homes and there was some traffic noise, but nothing distracting. Did not try the breakfast but looked appetizing.

Great hotel restaurant. Lovely bar. The rooms are nice, but not well designed. The shower got water all over the bathroom. There were no blackout curtains so it was bright all nice- Iceland summer. The window only cracks about an inch and there is no ventilation. It was very odd to be stifling hot in Iceland.

The property is a bit outdated, the bathroom needs an upgrade, however the rooms are large, with mirrors, refrigerator, a small kitchenette. The breakfast was awesome the best we had in Iceland. Dinner was good however as a vegetarian my choices were extremely limited for a price of ISK 8900. We had a stopover for one night and had a comfortable stay.

The service was great at this hotel and the food was good. Everything was clean. The entrance was difficult to find though. It looks like a college dorm that has been converted to a hotel. The toilet seat in room 308 needs to be fixed. The toilet seat moves around a lot. It would be nice if the rooms had bigger tvs and more channel choices. There was an odd smell in the hallway.

Manager was one of the best I ever have met, we arrived there before our booking from Orbitz did show on their computer, but he gave us a room anyway and he said we can check at dinner time if booking came true other ways we fix it in the morning!! I have never in 34 countries I have stayed in and hundreds of Hotels never got this FRIENDLY service. Bravo "10 Stars"
