Reviews and Ratings
I had a cozy stay at this hotel with very basic rooms. While they were comfortable, they lacked proper black-out curtains, letting in a lot of light during the summer nights. The service was decent with attentive staff. The location was excellent for exploring the nearby National Park, though the facilities were minimal. The dining experience was average with limited breakfast options.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic with clean and comfy rooms, super friendly staff, and an ideal location near the park. However, the dining experience left much to be desired with limited breakfast options. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel offers a fantastic location for hiking enthusiasts, close to Snæfellsjökull National Park. The rooms, although a bit outdated and with a hint of an earthy smell, are clean, quiet, and average-sized, providing control over the temperature. The glacier-facing view is a definite highlight for a unique experience. However, don't expect much in terms of dining and activities within the small city.
