The chicken sandwiches was great at the restaurant.

The location is excellent, but this hotel needs some TLC. Tour buses stay here so the bar and breakfast are crowded. The spa is an extra charge and not sure it's worth the cost. The room was spacious, but the bathroom was tiny. This was the first hotel we could actually smell a bit of sulfur in the water too. They have a great happy hour, it's just not easy to sit and enjoy your cocktail.

Convenient base for Golden Circle sightseeing. Last time we stayed we had a magnificent view of the river - which was amazing. This time it was the car park - not so nice. Hotel was busy with tour groups. We asked for vegetarian grab & go breakfasts & were given ham sandwiches! Didn’t realise until we were half way to the airport.

This is a great hotel for a stay in Selfoss. Easy to find beautiful location and the dining area is beautiful over looking the river. Do not expect large beds we had 2 twins that were pushed together but very comfortable. Very quiet did not hear any noise in the room.

The hotel is very centrally located with everything we needed - dining, grocery shopping - in close proximity. The breakfast buffet was lovely and copious - everything from Icelandic Skyr and oatmeal to "full English breakfast." The room was quite large and fully equipped. The blackout curtains could have been more effective.

Conveniently located in Selfoss. On check in receptionist was very friendly. When asked, she told us how to sign for complementary parking. She mentioned we could go and have a look at the spa and if we wanted to go could comeback and pay. Then I mentioned I thought one trip to the spa was included in our stay. She checked and gave us our robe and towel. Room was a reasonable size with bath/shower, toilet and sink including soap/shower gel. Lovely view of river and bridge into Selfoss. In room - Kettle with cups including tea and coffee. Fridge, safe and Tv. Spa was very relaxing, hot water bath area with relaxing lights, cold water bath, steam room sauna and places to relax. Would have been a pleasure to have more time there to relax. Breakfast good selection, hot and cold food, breads, toaster. Drinks- juices, tea coffee, water, milk. Good layout so even though it was busy it did not appear to be too crowded Very pleasant stay, would certainly recommend.

DO NOT CHOOSE THIS HOTEL!

The pictures do not reflect the actual state of the rooms. They are old, poorly lit, and very dirty. We were first given a room without hot water, then transferred to another connected room where we could hear people talking next door. Finally, we switched to another room and found spiders in it. Overall, it was a very bad experience, and I’m not sure how they managed to get four stars. It seems like they’ve probably bought a lot of reviews.
