This hotel is really far from normal tourists spots but we wanted to hike a mountain near by so I selected this location. I really enjoyed our time here and the view was pristine and untouched land. The rooms have big windows so you have a great view.

The property is one of very few that give you reasonable access to the Highlands. The budget rooms are small, but you get what you pay for staff is friendly and helpful. Food in the restaurant was good and sometimes great particularly the lamb. Definitely on the revisit list

Good for our trip into the highlands of Iceland

This hotel was convenient for our trip to Landmannalauger. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Good breakfast and helpful staff. Rooms are very small.

Cons: - Rooms have zero sound proofing. - Rooms and service feel like a basic hostel yet you are paying 4 star prices. Also no kitchen. Plus they dont provide a kettle in any of the rooms. - Reception is often empty. We only stayed here as we could not find any other hotel within an hour to landmannalaugar. They seem to know this, hence the extreme pricing.

A clean and honest hotel close to landmanalaugar, which has no other accommodation options so close (except for camping and a sleeping bag hut in the mountains).

Great service and great food. The water heater runs out of hot water quickly so don’t take too long in the shower. Sauna was an amazing plus and the staff are very attentive and considerate.

For those who should stay inland, there is no other option. Otherwise, I would recommend to find a place near ring road. The room 3 of us stayed was so small and the room charge was very expensive.
