The location is excellent, but this hotel needs some TLC. Tour buses stay here so the bar and breakfast are crowded. The spa is an extra charge and not sure it's worth the cost. The room was spacious, but the bathroom was tiny. This was the first hotel we could actually smell a bit of sulfur in the water too. They have a great happy hour, it's just not easy to sit and enjoy your cocktail.

Convenient base for Golden Circle sightseeing. Last time we stayed we had a magnificent view of the river - which was amazing. This time it was the car park - not so nice. Hotel was busy with tour groups. We asked for vegetarian grab & go breakfasts & were given ham sandwiches! Didn’t realise until we were half way to the airport.

This is a great hotel for a stay in Selfoss. Easy to find beautiful location and the dining area is beautiful over looking the river. Do not expect large beds we had 2 twins that were pushed together but very comfortable. Very quiet did not hear any noise in the room.

The hotel is very centrally located with everything we needed - dining, grocery shopping - in close proximity. The breakfast buffet was lovely and copious - everything from Icelandic Skyr and oatmeal to "full English breakfast." The room was quite large and fully equipped. The blackout curtains could have been more effective.
