We stayed in a family quadruple room which was very spacious and comfortable with each child having their own bed. The room was well equipped, clean and warm. We really enjoyed breakfast and dinner at the hotel’s restaurant. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Disappointed

This hotel has zero to poor internet if this is a priority for you. Besides their issue with the internet it is also in ab area where you get zero to poor internet off your own mobile network. This was something I asked for prior to booking and was told tge internet was perfectly fine. The initial response when I got there was they can't guarantee internet in the rooms. After not taking no for an answer they got a device an internet extender to solve my issue which was business related. However that did nothing for the other guests as they were in the common areas trying to get signal. As for the rest of the hotel out if 5 hotels we stayed at in Iceland it was the most dated and took last place. For what they charge you can do much much better.
