Very friendly staff, comfortable rooms; great location near Blue Lagoon and volcanic hiking; excellent food and wine selection; and a large, guest-only family room with plenty of furniture for relaxing or playing games, plus an honesty bar to self-serve drinks and snacks whenever the guest wants.

The staff in the hotel and restaurant were extremely friendly and helpful. Loved that my room was ready early, and I could go right in. The room was spacious, and the amenities were great (drinks included coffee, tea and sodas) that were included. Also, like that they had a free shuttle to the Blue Lagoon.

The staff here is amazing. They are so kind and helpful! It’s walkable to the blue lagoon, but they also offer shuttle service which is super nice. If you’re looking to save some money but want to stay near blue lagoon this place is a great option.

Great hotel. Got confused upon arrival as reception is not marked. In fact, it is at the entrance to the restaurant which looks like separate entity. After that, all was great

The staff acted swiftly, professionally, and with utmost concern for all the customers during the most recent evacuation. They made sure at 1:30 am that we were all accounted for, taken to a safe meeting place, and placed in a motel by 4:30 am. The staff should be commended for making us feel during this stressful volcanic eruption.

The location is super convenient for the blue lagoon but weirdly our room smelled like sulfur even though the blue lagoon didn’t smell at all. There is absolutely nothing around the hotel except lava. The food is decent. Room was spacious.
Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025

10/10

We had a unique situation. The road to the hotel was closed due to a recent volcanic eruption. They arranged for us to stay at another great hotel in Reykjavik. They also made sure we had a cot in the newly arranged room for our child. So although we didn’t get to experience the hotel property, we were very pleased with the services we got from them.
