Hotel is nearly opened last month, maybe April 2026, all facilities is not available at the moment except the lobby and the restaurant. The hotel is excellent, and the vibe are good, it’s romantic resort I ever seen jazz music play around the lobby in the hallway😍 staff is helpful and nice. Excellent breakfast with salmon.

5-star experience from check-in to check-out. Beautiful ocean views from the room and breakfast areas. Modern and calming spaces help to focus on mind/body restoration. Staff were attentive to every detail and the client's needs. Can't wait to return to the property when completed for the spa experience.

This hotel is still under construction but will no doubt be spectacular when completed. That being said, I think I would have held off opening until more amenities were in place. As stylish as it is, it is somehow cold and a little too stark in design-

The hotel just opened this spring. Could not ask for a better location directly on the ocean, watching the arctic terns nesting. Hotel manager was super nice and helpful. Construction is ongoing to finish suites, etc. It was super quiet when we were there. We enjoyed sitting in the spacious lobby looking at the view. Room was nice although a little dark. Excellent breakfast buffet. They have a few quirks to work out. Will be fantastic when done. Would come back.

Great location. Small rooms. No place for suitcases. Hard flooring and impractical light beige carpet. Breakfast adequate but not great. Dining area overlooks ocean, so nice. Lots of ‘adjustment’ issues (hotel is new) so things may be fixed in the future. Area is lovely. Highly recommend The Red House for dinner in neighboring town of Eyrarbakki, a quaint fishing village a 10 minute drive away. 🙏

Amazing hotel Only been open a couple of weeks Check in very quick, helpful and pleasant Room was beautiful , clean and spacious looking out over the sand and sea, ( shame about the weather but that’s not their fault.) Dinner in evening (3 course set meal) was a little expensive but well worth It . It was delicious . Came with stunning views out to sea. Breakfast was also a delight with plenty of choice. Plenty of areas to chill out in comfort too if weather bad. Staff very helpful when asked questions about area and routes we were taking. Very well earned 10 out of 10. Keep it up guys and congratulations on new hotel you’ve earned it

We were amongst the first few guests at this outstanding new hotel. The location is jaw-droppingly stunning in every direction with sea views on one side and lake/Mountain views on the other. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The room was immaculate with a very comfortable bed and high quality down duvet and pillows. The breakfast was excellent and the set 3 course menu was exceptional. The spa area is still in construction but we were sadly only there for a night so probably wouldn’t have had time to use it anyway. I have no doubt that it too will be superb when finished. I have no hesitation in recommending this new hotel to other travellers and will certainly return myself one day.

We only stayed here for one night unfortunately, would have loved to stay longer! The hotel is visible on the skyline from the road as a futuristic block, simultaneously blending in with the landscape and standing out as a beacon of human presence. It is an incredibly sleek, modern and cool design inside- as well as outside. The rooms are comfortable and clean, with views looking out over the ocean (unfortunatley there was still some construction ongoing when we were staying). Breakfast was amazing and kept us full for a while! We did not explore much of the surroundings as this was a pitstop for us on our way back to Reykjavik - highly recommend to relax and decompress after and before a long drive!

Malheureusement cet hôtel est loin d’être terminé. Notre chambre supérieure vue océan donnait sur des tas de cailloux et pas sur l’océan. Le spa indiqué lors de la réservation il y a plusieurs mois est loin d’être terminé, il n’est donc pas ouvert. Lorsque nous avons fait part de ces problèmes au directeur de l’hôtel il a été excrément condescendant, pour lui il n’y avait pas de problème. Cet hôtel sera sûrement très bien mais uniquement quand il sera terminé. Ce fut une très grosse déception.

Still very much under construction so there were no real amenities, but the rooms are clearly brand new and there was no construction noise (not sure when they’re finishing the place but we didn’t hear any construction). The staff were very nice and helpful, and the breakfast buffet was great with an incredible view. I recommend not booking Oceanside as the view from the other side (which looks over a lake with mountains in the distance) is even more beautiful.
