The hotel is beautiful and the staff is friendly. However, I do not recommend staying on floor 0 (I was in room 031). I felt like I was on the staff floor of the Titanic! I was in the hallway with staff doors, and on the floor with the sauna. The rooms are most definitely NOT sound proof. At all. And the doors—at least on floor 0–slam. Very very loudly. Which I could hear. Frequently. So I stuck in my headphones and called it an early night! The food there IS amazing and the hotel is beautiful. The hike to the waterfall near the hotel is very technical, so I had a beautiful waterfall all to myself! It was amazing. Just do not stay on floor 0.

Stay here!

We stayed in 5 different hotels in Iceland and this was by far our favorite. Great facilities, lovely service, great dinner and breakfast buffet. We loved the heated soaking tub/spa area. What a treat!

Hotel common areas are nice enough— couple of large hot tubs outside, a sauna, tiny gym and very nice bar lounge. The included breakfast is good. The room we had was very small and basic for $500 per night. Food and drink expensive even by Iceland standards. The hotel is not super close to anything (about 15 miles or so to glacier lagoon for example). I expected more and usually get it for these prices even in Iceland.
