This is a great hotel with a restaurant onsite that provides an interesting menu. The ground floor rooms were very noisy thanks to some of the guest congregating in the ground floor lobby area late at night - not ideal if you are trying to get some sleep. The rooms do not have air conditioning so leaving a window open was required. Not much to do in Blonduos town but this is a good stopover hotel on your travels from or to Reykjavik.

We stayed a week in Iceland at a different location each night. This was our most expensive stay and our least favorite. Small room facing the street and no TV while other more desirable rooms appeared empty.

Nice little place, town is cute and has restaurants and gas station. Beautiful ocean view. The food was okay and the room was tiny. No onsite presence overnight but we were happy with the service.
