Very nice and clean place. The included breakfast was excellent—fresh and delicious every day. I understand that AC may not be necessary in the rooms, but they should at least provide a fan. We left the window slightly open, but it wasn't enough—I was sweating at night. The blankets they provide are also quite warm. The view from my room was incredibly beautiful. I would recommend Magma Hotel to any friends or family visiting Iceland.

Wouldn’t recommend!! At the price you are paying, you should receive enough hot water for 2 people to shower- we had hot water for maybe one 10 minute shower- therefore I was not able to shower- not worth the price for failed basic amenities

Rooms were big enough, very clean and breakfast selection was great. Patio was great but too cold to use it. Parking is about 10 steps from the unit with a gravel path—might be troublesome for some.
