    A comfortable hotel with surprisingly big bedrooms. The staff were really helpful. We arrived late and the receptionist made us a sandwich because the restaurant was closed. The backdrop to the hotel is breathtaking with mountains and glaciers intertwined. It is also an excellent stop of to explore the surrounding area.

    The rooms are a little small but the view from the window is amazing! The only place you can walk to from the hotel is a gas station, but they have really good food there, made to order. The hotel has a bar and a restaurant, however both are expensive.

    This is more of a very clean youth hostel than a hotel. Our room was absurdly small with barley any space for our luggage. The bathroom was akin to that of the soviet union. I'm 6 feet tall, roughly 180 lbs, and had trouble moving about in the shower. The staff was very nice, and again, the place was very clean. But they're getting away with being the only game in town. Our room was nearly $400 and this was during the off season! Iceland is expensive, but everywhere else we stayed was far superior for the price. There's something fish going on that this hotel has no competition in an otherwise well traveled part of the country.

    Nice cosy hotel out skirts and rooms are a bit small. It fits the 3 of us and bathroom is well maintained. Food quality taste good. If I have more time would love to stay another night.

    A must to stay when you visited Jokulsarlon and Skaftafell.
    Very nice hotel with beautiful surrounding.
    Bed are very comfy and clean, breakfast are very good.
    And most of all the hospitality of its staff, who have help me in many ways when I got an accident at Jokulsarlon. I really appreciate them so much.

    Cozy, warm, comfortable. Good food and very nice people too! Plus there is a iceberg in the backyard 🙂

    Going to the glacier pool? This is the place to stay if you're anywhere near the national park. The staff is super friendly and helpful and the breakfast buffet is a good option for not cooking or reheating frozen meals. It's a perfectly quiet place, but I'd still recommend staying in the rooms that are at the bottom (in case you are traveling with your S.O., hehe). It has nicely lit areas to enjoy a book or a chat before going to bed.

    A quiet and well run family hotel. A good range of continental (cold) breakfast options, and good food at dinner too. Well located for local tours, with good connections to the guides, so can help with booking.

    Very friendly family run hotel with great food and good service. We stopped here due to bad weather but I would certainly stay there again if I am lucky to be able to.

    Great place to stay! The room was very clean, all appliances we're functional, the breakfast was tasty, and the views were amazing! Definitely walk up the small hill behind the rear building (rooms 301-314), you won't regret it! P.S. - My wife loved the heated floor in the bathroom.

    Restaurant was quite good, although portions were a bit small for the overall price.

    Not up to the high standard the prices and stars suggest. Was ok to sleep for a night (despite really soft mattresses) and it's located wonderfully. Very unsatisfactory breakfast buffet, the worst we had at all our (often much cheaper) accommodations.

    Nice hotel that includes breakfast. Room comfortable but small no carpeting in room. Bathroom has a shower no tub or wash cloths. Breakfast was good lots of selections
    Staff very friendly.

    Here on a school trip. Pleasant staff, large meals and clean rooms. Will call you at night for the aurora. Tea and coffe in room. Fast Wi-Fi. Little shop nearby. Glacier within walking distance.

    Clean, comfortable rooms in a great location right next to the largest glacier in Europe. Food was good, but extremely expensive - perhaps not surprising given that it's the only hotel in the vicinity.

    Decent hotel. Maybe a little expensive for what it really is but this is the closest hotel if you are visiting Skaftafell and the glacier. Our room was clean but the floors were a bit creaky. Added to the cabin feel I guess. Like most hotels in Iceland, they also come with free breakfast.
