10/10 Excellent
"Best Hotel stay so far in Iceland and that is saying a lot because they have all been awesome. But this hotel, from check in asked if we wanted a northern lights wakeup call, told us about things to do in the area that we had not heard about, went over the weather conditions for the night and next day. Just awesome. The hotel restaurant was a 10 out of 10. Best fish I have ever had, the bread appitzer with the butter and skyr mix great! Wait staff awesome and helpful, no complaints! And that wakeup call for the northern lights actually happened and we got to see them after almost giving up on this trip. Also breakfast, lots of options, taste great and no complaints there either."

"Absolutely Adorable Farm Stay! One of Our Favorites in Iceland! Oh my goodness, we absolutely LOVED this place! Such an adorable, charming farm stay! The young woman at the front desk grew up on the farm and was incredibly knowledgeable. She gave us wonderful recommendations on places to explore and things to see. The farm-to-table breakfast was PHENOMENAL! We loved watching the sheep and cows while we ate. Such a fun and authentic Icelandic experience! Our room was perfect, the location was great, and everything was so peaceful and quiet. You can truly tell how much love and pride this amazing family puts into their property. They have done a fantastic job! This was one of our favorite stays in Iceland, and we would absolutely return! Highly recommend!"

"This hotel is a great location with an amazing view and walkable to the lava fields. We picked the base room which was a bit small with a small shower but we're not there for the room, it's just a place to sleep. It was very clean and updated. Multiple restaurants are a very short drive away. They do offer breakfast but it didn't start until 8 so we passed on it. Parking was a bit tight but manageable around the units."
