The restaurant was wonderful for both dinner and breakfast, as were views from the bar and the heated dipping pool. Room was modern and clean. Our expectations were low as we drove in past the neighboring power plant (geothermal) and the construction equipment spread out across the parking lot and near the main entrance, but we had a nice stay.

he Adventure Ion Hotel offers a unique location, nestled in a serene and remote setting away from civilization and light pollution. However, the experience falls short of its advertised promises. While the Northern Lights Bar is suggested as an observation deck, it disappointingly lacks the expected views, and the promised wake-up calls for the lights were untimely. The spa, advertised as a luxury amenity, turns out to be a modest geothermal pool and a small sauna, not meeting expectations. Additionally, both breakfast and dinner options are limited, with repetitive vegetarian choices and high prices for what's offered. Despite its promise of luxury, the overall experience feels sparse and doesn't justify the cost.

Beautiful location; spa and geothermal pool a bonus. The staff are amazing! Loved the “check in beverage” very modern and clean. NOTE: closest gas is 32 km away. Make sure you have enough gas to get there and back as the road from Selfoss to the hotel is very very empty of other cars and houses so if you get stuck it’s a long long walk!

A nice place in the middle of the national park. A couple of hiking trails around and helpful stuff. I’m general, being in Iceland for the second time and having a chance to compare good hotels and small wooden houses, I would say that the hotel is very much overpriced. - it is located right next to the power station (so you can expect typical Icelandic smell all the time) - the only change to have a meal is at the overpriced restaurant (the breakfast is average too) - spa includes only a relatively small hot tub (which is usually super full of tourists), a room where you can chill and read a book and a sauna - you can literally hear everything what is happening outside the room (whether it is someone going to the hot tub or running for the northern lights or just taking shower in the next room) I have visited better places in Iceland with a more fair pricing, service and comfort. Nevertheless this is an understandable marketing concept from the location.

Hotel is NOT in Selfoss!
The hotel is fine, rooms are on a smaller side, there is some construction going on the property so it can be loud at times. However, the issue is hotel is NOT in Selfoss. It's not even close to Selfoss, around 45 min out of town of Selfoss, in the middle of nowhere. Not sure why it shows up in Selfoss.
