We checked in a day early after an abysmal experience at our previous hotel - and we’re glad we did! Beautiful location, comfortable beds, spotless room, exceptional staff, and amazing breakfasts and dinners. This was a truly memorable place.
Fantastic dinner options included local lamb and seafood soup.
View from our room, and a very welcome sunny day.
The iconic black church is only a short drive away.

Location is amazing, great view, nice deck, however the walls are quite thin. I could hear the people in the room next to me rustle the sheets, no exaggeration. That’s my only complaint.

Beautiful location on Snaefesnes. Amazing views. Room (we stayed in a cabin) isn’t large, but was well-appointed and very comfortable. Great included breakfast. We also enjoyed our supper at the hotel restaurant.

The stay was great. Nicest hotel we’ve stayed at in Iceland so far. My only complaint was the cod at dinner was not fresh. It has an ammonia taste to it which was unfortunate but everything else was great.

What a wonderful hotel! We found this beautiful place when searching for stops along our trek of northern iceland. The staff was amazing, the food was superb, the views were insane and having a kitty roaming around was the icing on the cake! Would highly recommend this hotel!
