10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hotel. Quite limited in terms of menu options in the restaurant, and it is eyewateringly expensive even by Icelandic standards but the location is stunning and the rooms are very nice. The Northern Lights “bar” was a great place to watch the view (and Northern Lignts). We travelled in March and whilst the roads around the hotel were fine and largely cleared of ice the 36 was very tricky to drive. Worth checking the travel news and maybe getting a 4x4 if snow is likely.

Our second time there and we already can't wait to return. The room we had was lovely, well appointed, clean and quiet in the new wing of the hotel. The staff are all friendly, helpful and knowledgable. Restaurant food good and position in Thingvellir NP is great for visiting all areas of the Golden Circle.

2/10 Poor

One star for restaurant staff, which did good job during breakfast and dinner. The hotel is outdated and pictures are a frame for a scam. The hotel reminds you of an old nature center / research facility, it is not a 4-Star Hotel and should not be marketed as one.

6/10 Good

Love the location, but overall it doesn’t live up to the price. We ordered two lunchboxes to go for 9,000 ISK and got pre-cut cheese sandwiches and four huge apples for two people. It felt like a rip-off. Fish at dinner was great, but housebred was very dry. Also breakfast is not worth it.
