Gorgeous location, friendly and helpful staff, and we loved the outdoor hot tubs! The spa downstairs is lovely, and the breakfast was also very good. The one downside was in the bathroom it was an open shower with no lip or raised area, so the whole floor got wet. As downsides go it was minor. This is a great location for reaching Diamond Beach/Jökulsárlón.

Due to a last minute booking frenzy which was totally our fault, we had to book the executive suite for our family of 4. This last minute booking turned out to be the best stay of our trip. Private hot tub on the balcony with amazing views, plus a brilliant room overall. Wished we could have stayed another night!

Great overnight pit stop after our glacier hike! The hotel provided a complimentary drink voucher to use at the bar - perfect after a long day. The room was spacious, clean and well stocked (robe and slippers provided). Lots of free parking outside. Would stay again!

8/10 Very good

Hotel feels deluxe, and is overall a good experience. However, some things are advertised better than they are. 1. What they frame as "room with mountain view" is more a room with view to the parking lot, and half frosted windows not to let people outside look in. 2. Spa area is not up to par with other (even cheaper) hotels, sadly. 2 outdoor warm pools and an indoor sauna with no view (even though its up against an ocean-facing outer wall).

Great Hotel in a perfect location to access Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon ! Loved the shared hot tubs, my wife and daughter found the mini gym great. The room was an adequate size, but not much space really. All very clean and well kept. Bar area was lovely with big comfy chairs
