The location is very good - it is close to Thorsmork and surrounding attractions. Buffet breakfast is great. There is a very nice restaurant on site with extensive menu and helpful staff. It works late, so you can still get dinner after doing one of the day tours nearby. Rooms are in a separate building that is well accessible.

Golf course is expensive and kind of meh - not spectacular in any way. The shower in the room is almost impossible to use without having the whole bathroom floor fill with water. It's the type of shower that does not have a divider/barrier, and the floor is just not sloped properly for drainage. So instead of draining the water leaks all over.

The locations is very convenience from Selfoss and head to Vik attractions. TV can access YouTube worth enough. I can enjoy watching a video Iceland Volcano. Super BF, tasty bacons & morning sausages, many kinds of coffee etc , worth enough to eat inside and ready some take out box and cups have a pack lunch permits. The most special thing is that the hotel's restaurant is very considerate and does not close after 5 o'clock. We were very tired after returning to the hotel from the tourist attractions, but we were still able to enjoy the smiling reception of the two male staff in the Restaurant who served us the hot soup we ordered. So considerate!

Only the shower design has water problem

It was very nice and very quiet place with beautiful view to the country. We liked the breakfast. The beds were comfortable and large enough. Also the bathroom was large and comfortable. The were dark curtains that was very helpful during the summer time, so we can have the darkness for the quiet night sleep in the room.

The breakfast was like for one or two nights stay. Maybe they change it everyday, otherwise it would still be the same.

Lovely location for viewing the night sky & fingers crossed the Aurora. The hotel staff are friendly & welcoming & the whole place has a chilled vibe. You also get a lovely breakfast if you choose.

One slight niggle, the restaurant is a slight walk from the rooms so if it's icy you need to take care. But hey this is Iceland not the Bahamas. Beware though any kind of cooking in the rooms, even preparation of 'pot noodle' style snacks is not permitted.

This was a great stop after a long day of hiking and driving. The hotel is in a beautiful location, with nice views all around. The conditions for the aurora weren't right when we were there, but I'm sure that if the solar activity is high, you'd have spectacular Northern lights here! We had a dinner in the restaurant (both the lamb and horse were good), and breakfast was good in the morning.

Room was nice, clean and comfortable. No difficulty finding the location. Breakfast was nice with choice for everyone.

Tried to eat dinner on the night we arrived was seated quickly however waited 10 minutes and water was delivered but no menus. Waited another 5 minutes still no menu and then we left. Found a great pizza place in the nearby town.

Broad variety of breakfast options. Nice room and spacious bathroom. We had great luck that there was a lovely and long Aurora that night. The hotel is a little bit out of Hellisholar, which was good to be found. For us it was on our way back, but I think this is also a good base for more days and several excursions.

The woman who checked us in(Agnieszka) was so helpful and kind and was a very conscientious member of the staff. Our room was spacious and comfortable and the facilities were clean. Our stay here was last minute due to problems with the Ferry to Heimey. So, we feel we were lucky to find such a good place with easy road access to several interesting sites in the area and easy access to Hvolsvöllur for dining and shopping.

The person who seemed to be the proprietor and the woman who appeared to be his wife seemed aloof and unfriendly and didn't seem to appreciate our patronage of their hotel. The bed mattresses aren't like here in the states. Be aware. There's a main frame to the bed and two small twin mattresses on top of it, which kept sliding all over the place. Minor in the grand scheme of things.

Comfortable for an overnight stop. Restaurant was very good for evening meal - good quality food and presentation. Breakfast was also great with a wide selection.

Rooms were a short distance away from therestaurant but not a problem - only a 2min walk.

This hotel is in middle of nowhere so you can watch Northern lights. We we lucky enough to watch.

Hotel is 10min drive from main road . If you are vegetarian no food options also expensive. Get it from Grocery from the main road
