Our stay here was fantastic. The owner was wonderful and helpful and the dinner was delicious. We stayed here on our last night in Iceland and it was the perfect spot. We saw the Northern Lights and it's right near a beautiful waterfall. They have a troll walk you can do around the property which features different troll games. I don't have kids but if i did this would be a great spot for them. They had a basketball hoop and a cabin full of games, etc. Highly recommend!

An absolutely amazing local hotel, restaurant, and campground. Everyone at the hotel was friendly, courteous, and helpful, and we loved every aspect of our time (two nights - wish it could have been longer). The food at the Rock-n-Troll pub was excellent and the views of the surrounding natural beauty were peaceful and magnificent. 6 stars out of 5 (and no, I'm not being paid for this review)

It was a bit more remote than I thought. It was raining and dark which made it harder to navigate especially when crossing a one lane bridge. Probably a better place for hikers/campers with kids.
