We stayed here for 1 night. We reached a bit after dark and it was our first night in Iceland. The guy at the reception did not understand much English. It was very dark as there is no light pollution. It would have been helpful if he had come with us to show the room, as we had to cross a little bridge after parking our car and we were fumbling in the dark. It is not far from the parking, or the main building, but he just gave us the keys and pointed outside, rather than just take the 5 min walk and show us the room. The breakfast was adequate and the view was good from the breakfast cafe. We did not see the northern lights that night, but the place can be great to see the northern lights. The cafe has microwave, and it is possible that they let you warm your own food there. The room had the coffee maker only.

Room was nice. Good size. Hot water. Loft had a low ceiling, and the front door lock was a little frustrating. It auto locks, door is heavy, and the key chain is huge. Breakfast was typical for the other places we stayed around the region A bit hard to find in the dark. No real signage that we saw and it is 2 separate buildings that could be mistaken as a residence. Didn't spend a lot of time but we were hoping for more of a lounge / social area. Hoped for couches around a fire to curl up and read or have a drink but the fire wasn't lit, area closed at 10, and it was in the dining area. All in all it was a nice stay.

This was our second time staying here, previous to this was in 2015. Located in a beautifully situated area, the owners have expanded the cabins with lofts and made some other beautiful upgrades, including in-floor heating. The young gentleman at the front was extremely kind and helpful, as well as the other gentleman who put together an amazing breakfast spread. We didn't get the opportunity to thank him for it, but hopefully he will see this review! Thank-you, Hotel A...we will be back again.

Something cool, something a bit disappointing

We arrived in a rainy cold night at this place. The room is clean and linens looks good as well. There are in-floor heating, so really nice on the feet. However, there is no temp control in thre room, so we got too hot during the night. The sound insulation is not good though. We can clearly hear the next door baby cry and toddler buncing around. Btw, the room has a cool loft with a small skylight, with 2 couch on there, I guess it's for watching northern light, but we didn't have the luxlck to see it. The glass door entrance would also be a nice touch to stay warm insidde and watching northern light, if there is any. The nice fire in the lounge was not on, which was a bit disappointing. One of the reason I choose this hotel is for that nice fire...

Booked this hotel thinking it was in the town of borgarnes. Reception worked with us and helped us cancel second night. Hotel was fine just wasn’t in the location I expected. Being out in a rural area was able to see the northern lights which was a huge bonus.

This hotel was just as expected - basic, good location, clean and convenient. Bed was comfortable. I just wish our room had a television. As there is no real entertainment in this area other than drinking (which my wife and I don’t do much), a television would have been nice company until bedtime

The location of the property is fairly remote from any of the larger towns but it is surrounded by beautiful scenery. Make sure you take the 3 minute drive to the spectacular Hraunfossar. You won't be disapointed. The host is friendly and welcoming and the breakfast is nice.

The hotel had cute rooms with lofts where there was a twin bed. The property had been renovated and felt quite new and updated. The shower was large and comfortable. Plenty of plugs for charging. Our biggest issue was the midges. The hotel is near water, and if there’s no breeze the property is covered with biting midges in the summer. We had all of our doors and windows closed, and we still had them in the room with us. We left literally covered from head to toe with midge bites, which took 3 days to stop itching. There was not enough information given, warning about what the bugs do, or preventative measures taken by the hotel to ensure our room was midge free. The recommendation was “keep doors and windows shut,” which we did. So the midges must have gotten in when other people were entering and exiting. I hope the hotel invests in some fans for every room to help summer guests not have to suffer this fate.
