8/10 Very good

We were supposed to be staying in the annex, but they moved us into the main building and gave us two rooms instead of one room, which was actually great. The northern lights we viewed from this location were absolutely insane. There are no televisions in the rooms, so if you fall asleep to a TV, you're gonna have to find something else to do. The staff was very nice, but breakfast was definitely lacking from the rest of our other breakfasts in our Iceland trip. With all that being said, I would definitely stay here again just because the owner was very nice.

Very friendly staff, quiet location and close to Studlagil canyon. Dining option is limited but the restaurant at the hotel is good. Breakfast is served included, a big plus since food is expensive in Iceland. Definitely Will stay again in the future.

The staff greeted us quickly and gave us a tour of the place at check in. The room was clean and perfect for our needs. The catfish at dinner was cooked perfect. The breakfast was excellent and we never ran out of the essentials. We saw the Northern Lights over the hotel that evening. I'd stay here again for sure. Thank you for you hospitality!

Stayed one night here in July 2025. Had dinner in the restaurant. Menu is not long but food tastes good. Room is clean. Breakfast buffet choice is bit limited compared to other hotels’ in Iceland.

6/10 Good

Not a lot of choices in this area and it appeared to be in the middle of no where so we were happy to see a place to rest at the end of the day. The facility is definitely older, the glass in our window was cracked, and the room only had a portable heater. Saying that it was manageable for one night, the food was okay, and the staff was friendly.

One of the best family run hotels ever. The owner was so friendly and helpful. We are vegetarian and he went out of his way to prepare delicious food. Also hot up early just to prepare coffee and breakfast since we had to leave very early. Amazing service
