One of the best hotels we stayed at in Iceland! Incredible views of the glacier and surrounding mountains. Check-in process was very smooth and the room was very clean, modern, recently renovated. I wish we would have stayed here for a few more days. Highly recommend!

The room was as advertised. There was no staff which was nice since a lot of hotels have check in ending at 8 pm. The parking situation was confusing since there are only three spots but I called the emergency number and the gentleman instructed us to park anywhere as long as it doesn't block the cars and views of the guests.

We LOVED this hotel! The room was spotless, super comfortable beds and amazing views right outside. Behind the "house" there are waterfalls. Location was super close to the Jokulsarlon Glacial Lagoon. This was our favorite hotel for our trip in Iceland and wish we had the opportunity to stay longer than a night.

A normal room, anf for 400 USD a night there could be at least some kind of breakfast offer or an hot tub. If you you can get it for 200 USD ok, otherwise book one of the nice hotels around

We loved our stay. It is in a quiet and remote area with a view that absolutely could not be beat. I wish we would have had more time here for the view alone. The place was clean, easy to access, with a lovely bathroom. Bonus points as well for the adorable and totally sweet yellow lab we met on the property. 5 starts for him alone. Would definitely come stay here again. The only thing I would advise for anyone staying for the first time is to plan ahead for food as options in the area are limited.

A lovely room in a location convenient to the glacier and beach. The views are beautiful, especially the waterfall on the back side of the property which was visible from our shower. The area is not very close to gas and food options, but the hotel across the street had a wonderful breakfast buffet.

Very clean room with amazing views. Quiet location. There are no shops nearby but the hotel is a 20 min walk away. Best to come prepared with food options. There is a fridge but no real storage, not a problem for us but might be for some.

Très belle chambre, toute neuve et bien équipée. Accès autonome sans problème (place disponible pour la voiture, mais où la mettre exactement n’était pas clair dans les instructions). Localisation exceptionnelle, au pied d'une falaise, avec vue sur Jökulsarlon et sur des montagnes majestueuses.
