Probably the best hotel I been too in Iceland and I booked over 5 hotels during my trip. Absolutely amazing hotel and next to a waterfall. We also sat down in the bar and had a drink. The bar/lounge area was so cozy. Rooms were clean and food/breakfast was amazing with very kind staff. I will def be booking this again when I’m in Iceland.

Without a doubt the best hotel we stayed at during our trip in Iceland. Great location, spotless room and on top of it all they have the greatest staff! Everyone was super attentive but I wanted to give a special thanks to Razvan who served us for the two nights we were there and ate at the restaurant! He was an excellent host, super attentive to details and made our dinners feel like if we were in an upscale restaurant. Thank you guys! PS: great location to see the northern lights, we were lucky enough to see them from our room window

Location is good for visiting the glacier lagoon, ice caves and diamond beach. Room was clean and beds were comfy. We enjoyed soaking in the hot tub. Make sure to make a reservation at the hotel restaurant. Food is good but most importantly there are no other places to eat close by the hotel.
