The pipes from the above room make a lot of noise when the water is running. Unfortunately, the people in the above room were taking extensive showers in the early morning (1:00am) hours. Also, way too many flies in our room.

Hotel asked me to pay a broken lid damaged by othe

After we checked out, the hotel charged us 4000 isk for an old broken pot lid which was not broken buy us. The hotel did send me a photo showing 3/5 of the broken lid. The broken lid looks very old and must broken many time before (photo attached). The metal frame of the lid already bent maybe long long ago. I explained that we didn’t broken the lid and told them that we only put the lid in the dishwasher. But they didn’t reply my message.

Home away from home plus more.

Perfect for a family with a toddler. It was a large house that we stayed at and had so many activities. The setting was perfect, the furnished kitchen offered much needed items and allowed for cooking heated meals and just to relax and enjoy. We plan on returning to this location on our return trip. Highly recommend.

This property was easily my favorite out of the 5 places we stayed. The property itself was fantastic, they had everything you needed there. The restaurant was wonderful, we got the fish of the day and the parmesan soup, it was great. Then the room was exactly what we needed, the shared kitchen was amazing with the designated drawers for each rooms food and the cleanliness. We also used the laundry room while we were there which was very convenient. Then there was the thermal bath and saina area. We did not use the sauna, but the thermal bath and cold plunge area was extremely nice, along with the changing area, very clean and they also had hot water out there to shower in before and after the thermal bath. Overall I would highly recommend the facility.

We rented the bigger house for our family of 6. While the house was great and very clean and comfortable, the hot tub did not work, which was disappointing. The shared hot tub was in a very beautiful spot, but a little unkept with lots of algae floating in the water. The location was beautiful and viewers were stunning.

What an incredible property! We stayed in the triple room which was spacious, clean and organized. The shared bathrooms and kitchen were immaculate. The restaurant was delicious and accommodating (especially breakfast). The hot springs were glorious and while I didn’t cold plunge in the pond, others did and it was scenic and wonderful.

Beautiful hot tub and setting. A bit noisy in the shared guesthouse, kinda a high end hostel. Decent kitchen but broken toaster. The staff wasn’t conscientious of guests. The fridge was defrosting and leaking in the floor. Felt like a bit of a money grab—have to pay for hot tub towels for instance. But overall pleasant.

The property had a nice layout and a beautiful view as well. The cabins are very nice and had good kitchens. Was able to see the Northern Lights, which were fantastic. Only issue - if you could even call it that - was that checkout was at 10 and no one was at reception (building locked) so we had to just leave the key in the cabin.

I came in early winter. Very much the low season. In winter the place feels truly remote, a refuge from the world, which is what I came for. There are a couple easy thing they can do for low-season guests below. The building interior was nice and warm. It was a very nice refuge from the cold, The room was so warm that even with the thermostat all the way down I was overheating until I cracked a window. Yes, in an Icelandic winter. The hot bath is the highlight of the property and my main reason to go there. I didn't quite understand that breakfast had to be pre-ordered. This makes sense, especially in the low season, but I don't remember if this was in the welcome message. Can there be an option when signing up to pre-order for the first morning? Or... we might order ahead for some groceries to be left in the kitchen: muesli or some such. Hostel stuff. Also for winter: I really recommend better lighting by the geothermal pool... maybe just low-power path lighting to make it easier to find your way from the pool to the showers or sauna after sunset. Twice I wanted to use the sauna but didn't because I couldn't see the way to get to it.
