Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is perfectly situated very close to the lagoon, which is super convenient. The rooms are cozy and clean with a lovely view, but the shared bathroom was a bit of a downside. The service was exceptional with a warm welcome drink and helpful tours assistance. The price was reasonable but having to share a bathroom impacts the value slightly.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel, which offers clean and comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and a great location near the best hot springs park in Iceland. The dining experience could be improved, but overall, it's a value for money choice.
I stayed at this hotel that is perfectly located near the lake, offering a serene environment. The rooms were cozy with beautiful views, providing a great stay overall. However, the dining options were limited, and the shared bathroom was a bit of a downside. The price was fair for what the hotel offered.
