Cozy accommodation surrounded by nature

Nice and cozy accommodation with a great view towards the mountains. Still quite pricey, given the distance towards the closest city and the glacier lagoon, which is the main attraction in the area.

Pretty good guesthouse just a few meters away from the ringroad. It got nice double rooms with private bathrooms. Breakfast is simple, but alright. You have access to coffee and tea the whole time. We really enjoyed our stay here!

Clean and handy.

Basic but spotless, quiet, and comfortable. Hot drinks available in the hall. Great breakfast buffet. Reasonably priced - very good stop-over on the way to/from the glacial lagoons.
