Great and spacious rooms (we had tried the Japanese inspired junior suite and then 1 night in the large suite), both offered great space (latter with a jacuzzi in the room). Overall excellent service across full experience, great restaurant and beautiful peaceful landscape. Additionally, star gazing observatory is very nice and guide explains the beautiful skyscape. We got super lucky and caught the Northern Lights for over an hour during the star gazing tour!

    We loved this hotel. Superb spot in a stunning little town. The outdoor geothermal swimming pools are amazing. We were out there bathing while it was snowing! Great little outdoor steam room too - you can hear the geothermal pools bubbling away underneath. Terrific breakfast. We were not in the restaurant. Spacious, clean, very comfy room. Really great games room downstairs with pool, air hockey, darts and ping pong - all free. We got caught in one of the many snowstorms and so could not leave the town. The hotel staff were amazing and let us keep the room for many hours after we were supposed to check out. Walk across the road to the Greenhouse for a cocktail and a more informal bite to eat.

    Location was lovely, slightly in the outskirts providing full glory to northern lights than polluted by typical city lights. Room was spacious and comfortable. Staff (a young lady manning the booth during evening) was also great as she notified us of the most beautiful Aurora we've witnessed during our trip, which without her call, we would never have caught it. Last, breakfast was fantastic, typical Icelandic breakfast spread and more (DIY waffles). We'd gotten dinner in the neighboring city so no comments to that.

    Having to 'get around Ring Road' definitely has its drawbacks. The biggest one we found was when you found a great place, your time there was limited. We did stop for the Lava Show in Vik, which was great, and we had dinner there as well. There was not enough time to really see everything before having to move on.

    Iceland is a very expensive place to travel and this guest house was average price for Iceland but the quality of the rooms were low average. Our room had such a bad slope on it we had to sleep at the other end of the bed with our heads above our feet. The bathroom had a toilet in the middle of the room, you had to walk around it to get to the shower and even though the room came with breakfast included it was very poor quality.

    Great place in south of Iceland. The town of "flowers" is a good name for this place, as it is the warmest place in Iceland, where they grow flowers and enjoy life. It has the best swimming pool of the whole country, with an amazing "steam room" that is heated with steam straight from the vulcanic core of our planet.

    I am sure there will be more activity and beautiful place to see in a nice day or summer. We are luck to get good temp in our trip (most day above the freeze and one day reached about 10C). We are not luck since there is no sun in all the trip except when we fly back to US. The mountain and beach are great even with cloud and frog.
