Loved it!!

So so nice. We all agreed that we wished we were staying here for more than a single night. The hot tub in the evening after a long drive was very very nice and the general atmosphere of this place is fantastic. Would recommend!

Very pleased with our one night stay. The staff was friendly and professional. The room was spacious and clean. They had dinner buffet for 85k ISK. Breakfast was included and for a change we could get some scramble eggs and Bacon's. Sauna and hot tub included and open till 11 pm. Also, a new spa called Forest Lagoon has opened nearby which is a nice retreat with their large poops, sauna, and cold plunge. The hotel is a scenic 10 minute drive from downtown. All in all, highly recommended!

The hotel is a bit out of way, didnt expect its in a farm. However, the ocean view is gorgeous. The hotel interior walls and steps are all unfinished playwood, which doesnt look new, not sure if this was the plan or just never finished? The included breakfast have good choices, and the The main issue of this hotel is that the first picture of this hotel is a man in a good-sized hotpool, which doesnt exist in the hotel... It only had a tiny 3-foot square pool at the back door, which is truely sad.

I rented this hotel mostly for sauna and hot tube. Hot tube (pictured on the Expedia) was not there. Instead it has a tiny may be 30 centimeters deep dirty tiny pool...The room was renovated and clean, breakfast average. 15 minutes drive from the city, not much to do there.

Located in a nice area. Easy to get to with lots of place to park. Room was clean. I would say this place offered THE MOST solid breakfast I had on my trip. They had scrambled eggs! The one reason why I gave only a 4 star rating (and 3 stars for property condition) is the drain in my washroom. It was clogged or something as water would start boiling out of it while using the sink. How functional/clean a washroom is means a lot to me. Were it not for the washroom, this place has an easy 5 star rating.
