Gorgeous & Unique!

Loved this very unique stay! It was cozy and wonderful to wake up to seeing the trees overhead. It's a bit of steep walk from the car so just be prepared for that!

A very unique experience in a secluded part of Iceland. The bubble was private, warm, and gave great views. The property was clean, had all necessary facilities and had a warm ambience.

Very unique concept. Lots of climbing and stairs to get to your bubble. Leave most of your luggage behind in the car. A headboard to keep your pillows from falling off and nightstands would be helpful.

Unique experience! You walk up a magical path through a forest of trees and little lights and fake candles to your designated bubble in its own secluded spot. The bed was comfy with beautiful extra wool blankets that we didn’t need because it was so warm inside! Looking up through the trees to the sky was amazing. There are clean toilets with sinks and mirrors halfway there too. In addition, there are more toilets and showers at the bottom of the path by the parking area where you check in. There is also a place to wash dishes if needed and get coffee and lots of towels for the shower. We were greeted when we arrived and left by four Icelandic horses and their foals next to the parking area. We were also greeted by very friendly staff upon our arrival and departure.

We really enjoyed the experience even though there wasn’t an aurora the night we stayed. We slept great and It was wonderful to wake up in the morning and see the forest around us. We were greeted by staff at the service house and shown the facilities which were clean and inviting then escorted to our buubble. The hike up the hill was a little strenuous but not bad, just enough to make you think twice about going back down the hill unless it was necessary. There was a clean restroom facility at the top of the hill which was extremely convenient. The buubble was heated and had individual mattress heaters, warm enough that we actually got hot during the night.

We had a wonderful experience at the Bubble Hotel. Camilla and Andres were so welcoming and accommodating. Unfortunately we had bad weather and didn’t see the Northern Lights, but nonetheless the experience was so peaceful and nice. Camilla provided us with cups and things we needed for a picnic we packed, and made sure we were comfortable in our bubble. The common facilities were clean and warm. We definitely want to come back!

Just stay here already!....

Such a unique and amazing experience... our bubble was cozy and felt like we were the only people in the world! The women that checked us in was super funny and nice... and as a side note. . I booked thru hotels.com but accidentally booked for the wrong date (off by one day)... since it was 3rd party vendor i was told theres nothing that can be done ... After contacting resort... they totally switched my date and accommodated my mistake.... i still cant thank them enough!!!

Bubbles were not as private as I would expect. There are 60 steps up to the bubbles and I saw an older couple struggling to get to their bubble. That should be disclosed for disabled people. There was a limited view out of our bubble due to tree branches. Fun for a night but probably would not do again.

Disappointed

We were so excited for our trip to Iceland and the bubble hotel-we booked all of our hotels the same exact way, through hotels.com we had 6 hotels booked. Unfortunately, my husband got Covid and we couldn’t A. Because my husband had symptoms that would make it uncomfortable for him to fly and B.we followed the CDC guidelines which instructs us not to fly if positive. We were sad to have to cancel our trip. The only two hotels that wouldn’t give us a full refund were The Bubble hotel and Hotel Kria. When we rebook we won’t be visiting those two hotels. I also feel hotels.com could have helped in this situation.

The bubbles are located up a short hill in the forest, the service hut is excellent - very clean, warm and facilities to make hot drinks, greeted by friendly host who explained how to get up to the bubble. They felt very private once we were there as they were a good distance away from each other. They had heated mattresses and we stayed in October and it was cold even with the mattress but we came prepared for this with extra layers. It really is a once in a lifetime experience we amazingly had a clear night so were able to stargaze seeing shooting stars through the roof of the bubble and to top it off we saw the aurora too. It’s an experience and we would highly recommend it but pack warm clothes if going in the winter!

Facility was a bit different than I was expecting. At $400/ night I thought we were going to a luxury glamping experience. The actual Bubble was fun and warm. Bed very comfortable. However, the rest of the facilities were not as expected. The parking is quite a way from the Bubble. You also have to climb a long, steep stairway which is about 20 steps. There is no way to take your suitcase up those stairs, so grab what you need and just take that with you. Once at top of stairs, depending on which Bubble you are in it is another 100-150 yds. BATHROOM FACILITIES - leave alot to be desired. The main bathhouse is at the parking lot, so forget about using that one when you are at your Bubble. There are other toilets at top of stairs, but way to far to go if you need facilities in the middle of the night. At bathhouse in parking lot, there are two showers. There are 9 Bubbles so that is 18 people who need to bathe each morning. Luckily we were the first ones there. There is no where to wait why you are waiting for your turn. Everyone has there suitcases open by their cars trying to grab what they need for the showers. Showers are very tight, no room to prepare. If it was raining or snowing, this whole experience would be a mess. While in your Bubble there is a comfortable bed, but no where to sit but on your bed. Would be nice if there were a few chairs outside Bubble. No outdoor seating anywhere on property. So not even a bench anywhere to sit. Not a $400/night experience.
