Great small individual units. Heated floors were such a welcomed feature in the winter. We saw the northern lights the two nights we were there.
Would definitely return.

This hotel was perfect, the room was modern yet cozy, a perfect place to relax after a long day of exploration. The included breakfast was great, and the restaurant was so cute, looked like something out of a hallmark movie. We were even able to see the northern lights off of our back deck!

An absolutely gorgeous hotel!! It was very clean and had a delicious complimentary breakfast. We ate dinner and breakfast at the hotel while overlooking a lake with grazing horses. The best hotel I’ve stayed at in Iceland!

Great view, spacious rooms, very friendly staff and delicious coffee. Perfect stopover for our family of 6(2 rooms). Ask for rooms 1&2, great view of the lake. Photo is from our patio.
