Tranquility in Iceland

Amazing experience! Hiking trails at the resort, game room, creative arts room cimplete with piano, guitar, musical instruments, yoga room, that all if the family can pursue their interests then meet back up again at the tranquil pool and hot tub. The onsite restaurant is incredibly delicious. We were lucky enough to have a room with a view of the mountain and hot spring. Dala hotel is the place i will remember first when i think of my trip to Iceland!

This place is a hidden gem in forest and next to a calm peaceful hot spring. The hotel is large, rooms are spacious and the staff is friendly and helpful. We stayed for one night and truly enjoyed it. Definitely recommended!

Dated property. We stayed in a family quadruple room which was spacious but very dated. Stained curtains and lots of dead bugs. Bathroom is quite small. The pool and hot tubs next to the property were nice and there are plenty of games rooms at the hotel room. The food at the restaurant was not good at all - braised lamb was so tough that it was hard to cut with a knife. The staff is helpful and accommodating. We stayed here due to the location on our trip around Iceland but wouldn't stay here again.

Reminds us of a hostel. Shared showers and bathrooms. Even though we had a private bath and shower there was no water pressure. Had to use the common baths. This was a challenge with kids.

Sightseeing in the area. The couple that own/run the property are lovely, and very helpful. They have a picturesque hot spring adjacent to them that is for guest use. Views from hotel are amazing in all directions! Breakfast included was key!

Best hotel ever

Last minute booking. Once I arrived, I didn’t want to leave. The staff were amazing!!! The hotel was so comfortable and I felt at home. The staff even helped me out with some hot water and a spoon so I can eat something before bed time. Love this place.

Hotel staff was very good and very supportive. They accommodated and helped with everything. Hotel has new building and old building so my response here is based on staying at old building. Room was too old, things were bit broken and it gave the feeling where nothing was updated or changed for years. Room were spacious but old furniture and space didn't help at all same with bathroom.

Clean and comfortable. Our room lacked bedside charger outlets and a tea kettle. It faced the parking lot on the ground floor and also lacked privacy. Otherwise quite nice.

The hotel has a ton of great communal spaces (a lounge, a game room, a relaxation room, and a hall connecting to the pool next door). Great place, and quiet!
