Hotel is outdated, showing signs of overuse and lack of renovation. I also found blood stains on my bed sheet, not very impressed. The location is nice, right next to Lake Myvatn, but not lakefront. The restaurant is very nice, full buffet breakfast was included, although there were lots of flies hovering and landing on food. This hotel needs better management.

We love Myvatn! The view you can find there is the most wonderful. This hotel is within a short walk to all the trails to enjoy the majestic view. The dining options are very good. We enjoyed our dinner at the hotel. Because of the midges, we couldn't open our window and the room got a little stuffy. Other than that, everything is great.
