Cute hotel at the end of a private drive. We had room 201 and shared with friends of ours. The room was very tidy and spacious, with a lovely balcony with great views. Yes, the bathroom smelled like sulfur but it's common in Iceland with hot water. The common area was very spacious and was a great place to hang out. We loved the breakfast served in the morning, which was just enough fuel for the start of the day. Unlimited access to coffee and cookies was also a delight throughout our stay. We enjoyed the hot tub outside, but wished it were a tad bit warmer. Overall, this was our favorite hotel that we stayed at in Iceland. It's private, quiet, has an easy check-in process, nice breakfast, and is very spacious.

Log Cabin along the Mountainside
A perfect last minute stop, mountain side along the Southern ring road with easy, quick access from the main road. Perfect breakfast in the land of few restaurants far and between. Very responsive to get check-in code for room via email and or phone at reception.

Really nice property, but one complaint. There was a deck area that staff used for smoking. It was both under our room window and also in a spot I would have like to have had breakfast. The inside breakfast area was cramped and the outdoor area was great--other than cigarette smoke.

I will say that the building has a log cabin feel to it. The appearance from outside and the entry are fabulous. Check in is by a phone call. They give you your room number and code for a key box. Our problem was our room, #104. Once I entered the room, smelled like a backed up septic problem. I immediately had to open the windows to air out the room. Since no employees at facility, no one to talk to. Needless to say, less than satisfying experience. I hope the other rooms smelled better than ours.

We booked a last minute stay here in room 201 for our family of four. It was a really nice property beautiful views and a cool river right in front. The hot tub was warm not hot but that was better for my kids anyway (if they added a cover like other places we stayed it might have been hotter) we didn’t notice any sewer smells the water everywhere smells like sulphur though in Iceland. We were the only guests at the hotel so got the whole common area to ourselves. The breakfast was basic mini pancakes (probably frozen kind) pastries fruit and yogurt along with warm rolls. Try to get the code in advance via email otherwise it seems you can’t call for it until after 4PM which is check in time anyway. It was on the pricey side but Vik was more and only 30 minutes away. The Skogar waterfall is super close and had a great restaurant

This was a horrible experience. You never see the booking staff on site and they’re impossible to reach via phone. When I finally did connect them about my booking to check in, they said my booking had been cancelled and hung up. I never cancelled this booking. We had to book a last minute room and then look for new lodging altogether. When I contacted Expedia to resolve the issue, they said there was nothing they could do to refund me the money taken by this property. I’ve been scammed out of $1,000 USD. I will never book at this property again and I will never book through Expedia again.

This hotel offers the breathtaking view of mountain and a peaceful moment from hot tub. You can get free coffee whenever you would like and good choice of breakfast. I liked the quiet and awesome log house style. You can just step into the another world. Thank you so much.

In April we booked two nights at this property for an August stay. One week before our stay we were told by Expedia that the property was overbooked and we were cancelled. We were able to rebook one of the nights there only to find that the price doubled. Two days before that stay we were again cancelled because of "overbooking". We were in a remote location at the time during a very busy time. Luckily we were able to find two very nice hostels. We are outraged and frustrated by this treatment. Do not book this location!

The floors squeaked horribly above us. Sounded like the people above were about to fall through the floor. If you go here I would highly suggest a second floor room and be mindful of the people below you. For the price, this should be addressed. Water in hot tub was not hot, hence nobody ever used it.

It is a strange place with no atmosphere. For a hotel as expensive as this one it is surprising that no one appears to work there or cares about the guests. It feels like a university residence with spare, random and ill fitting furniture. Bare bones breakfast and no interest by the management to customer service. It feels like you are creeping around in someone else’s house. A very large let down and grossly over priced.

First of all they wouldn’t pick up the phone at all. We tried calling the property for 2 days and no one would pick up the phone. When we got there there was a pile of trash next to the entrance. Wasn’t very inviting. When we got there we had to call the different phone number so a person came in to give us the keys. There’s no one at the property for any help of questions. The shower pressure upstairs is horrible. It may take you 30-40 mins to take shower since it would slow down if someone else turns on the water in the building. Hot water wouldn’t come for mins at a time. They wouldn’t clean the rooms only change the towels for 3 days. One guest arrived late at night around 9-10pm and once they called the number to get the keys. They came to find out that their reservation is canceled and they should have received the email about 4-5 hours ago. That was due to overbooking. There were no hotel rooms available at all in the area. I wouldn’t recommend unless it’s an emergency.

Great location but awful service.
Great location but awful service. No reception which is fine but I booked 2 rooms to include continental breakfast. No breakfast arrived and when I called the phone number to ask about it they rudely told me that there wasn’t any and to contact Hotels.com about it. Very disappointing end to a decent stay. I wouldn’t recommend anyone to stay here, there are much friendlier places around in Iceland.

Superb accomodation. Very close to road 1 and southern Iceland sights. Check-in is very easy: room key is in a locker, 4 digit combination sent prior to arrival. Breakfast was good and included many options. Excellent value for money. You can see the auroras from the outdoor jacuzzi!
