We chose this hotel for its location, in the middle of nowhere, to see the Northern Lights and we achieved our goal, we just walked behind our room and it was dark enough to enjoy the lights. The hotel is surrounded by nature, there is a nice waterfall that you can enjoy from the restaurant of the hotel and a trail. Close by there are more waterfalls, all of them beautiful.

Room was very comfortable and the area was quite nice. Staff were helpful for the hotel itself but the restaurant service was very poor. Also some broken amenities (laundry) while I was there.

If you don't stay at this hotel while in Iceland you are missing a gem! It is located in the country, but not far from village amenities. The property is surrounded by walking trails and is perched on the side of a river with rushing water and falls. The restaurant serves a great dinner too! WE had traditional Icelandic fish and lamb. The rooms were cozy and the hot tub was a delight. Plenty of parking. There are also little camping cabins. The staff were friendly and responsive.

Stayed in the rooms with private bathrooms. Liked the property - next to a small stream with a small but wide waterfall. Convenient if you are exploring the western peninsula of Iceland. Room was nice and the modest breakfast buffet was great. I would stay here again if I was travelling to western Iceland or on my way further north.

What a great property, they have a cute walking trail all about trolls. Dinner was very good and so was breakfast. The staff were very nice. The spas could be a bit hotter, but we loved our stay here. We couldn't get into one of the pods, which I thought would be fun, but very happy with where we stayed.
