We spent a night here on our way back to Reykjavík. The rooms were clean, stylish, and functional. We especially appreciated the outdoor hot tub and sauna, which were perfect after a long day of driving. Though it’s a bit outside the city, the breakfast was excellent and made the stay worthwhile.

The staff was very welcoming and jumped right on a problem we had when the shower flooded. They even gave us a wake up call to catch a glimpse of the northern lights. The food was beyond our expectations. We don’t normally stay at hotels associated to golf courses so honestly didn’t expect much but this place is well worth the stop over for the view, food and nice, really nice people. We look forward to going back and trying out one of the cabins.

Beautiful hotel. We stayed in one of the cabins. Modern, clean, comfortable. The breakfast was the best we had all trip and the staff were friendly and nice. I would definitely stay here again. They also have a sauna and hot tub and offer to wake you up if they see the northern lights.

Bungalows are new and clean

We stayed in the bungalow which was very new and clean. It looks exactly as presented in the pictures. Staff were helpful. Breakfast was decent. The bungalows have their own outdoor hot tub and sauna area which was nice. There are about 12 bungalows total (I think), so it could get crowded in that hot tub and sauna when the hotel is busy given they weren’t very big. It seems like a good place to see northern lights, we just didn’t get lucky during our stay. Only downside from our stay was no smart tv (unless we just weren’t able to figure it out), but you can easily plug in an Amazon fire stick. Also, due to some issue, the hot tub was more like a warm tub. We recognize things happen so we won’t let it affect the review, but still disappointing. Overall would recommend

Cosy and beautiful

We got upgraded to the deluxe cabins which were fantastic for star gazing and northern lights viewing. The room was big and clean. Only thing is the room was not warm enough even with max heater on. However, it was a very nice experience overall.
