The view was amazing and we had the chance to see the northern lights! the staff was friendly and helpful. they answered ahead of our arrival and helped with setting up a welcome surprise for my partner. the room was spacious and clean. the beds were comfortable and we were able to fall asleep looking at the sky. very quiet and isolated, with easy parking. we were at a good distance of activities in the Vatnajökull park, but also short distance to Hofn, where there were great restaurants.

the breakfast is pricey for the offer, but there isn’t much around. very hard to see the entrance for the hotel from the road at night - make sure to have your gps on! the toilet and shower are in two different places. while it is ok, the mirror/vanity was strangely placed on the counter in the main space. not the best lighting or location to do your skincare routine.

The setting is amazing. The scenery is stubbing, there are areas to walk around and a beautiful patio to sit and enjoy a drink while soaking up the view. The staff were so lovely - in fact they made our stay. Everyone was helpful and amazing to our 2 small girls.

The curtains in the room were not blackout which was tough with toddlers and the midnight sun but this was very very minor.

Location is good and a short drive from hofn with ample parking. The hotel is nicely situated in a valley area with nice views of the plains and mountains. The room are spacious and nice but basic. Breakfast was good with nice scenery.

We were upgraded to a ground floor room with a bigger room size, possibly for the handicap since the toilet is barrier free and had rail support. Not exactly sure if it is considered an upgrade.

Beautiful location a little outside of Höfn—we had views of three glacier tongues from our room. good breakfast starting at 7 am, but option for a packed breakfast to go if you need to get an earlier start.

Rooms were a little strange with a sink and counter in the bedroom—had to turn on lights in the bedroom to have lights in the shower. Service could have been a little better (we waited several minutes at check in while 3 or 4 staff members were trying to figure out something with a dinner bill—just acknowledging we were there and saying “we’ll be with you in one moment” would have improved the experience).

easy to find since entering the hall despite the big dimensions it returns a warm feeling the rate is the lowest we had while in iceland we've been assigned room 105 spacious bright and clean facing the mountain ridge on the back (as we understood only the even rooms have view on the glasier) staff is available and professional parking is free just at the entrance we definily recommend the internal restaurant where we had excellent food at the regular (high) price for iceland

The room was not big. I didn’t like the bed and it only had a bedside table on one side and only electric plugs on one side as well. The view from the room was very nice and also from the restaurant. Breakfast was fine and the food at the restaurant was very good.

The bedroom was rather small and expensive considering how small it was.

Loved the heated floors in the bathroom and the breakfast.

We waited quite a bit when we got there at the front desk and no one acknowledged us. Then we asked about eating at the restaurant as it was a long day an employee that was standing there was...not for at least an hour or more. I know they were busy but she was a little short.

We were very pleasantly surprised by this hotel, it’s a real gem. The rooms are comfortable and stylish in a minimalistic way and as well as numbers are named after glaciers, what a lovely touch. There is a nice outside terrace with views over the glacier for when the weather allows it, and prices are reasonable. The staff were very friendly and we really enjoyed our stay. Would love to return someday.

The only slight negative was the bed, which we found incredibly hard.

The breakfast was fantastic. The restaurant for dinner was top notch - high quality food for good prices. View from the dining room and bar is lovely. Staff also friendly and helpful. Bartenders made a great cocktail.

The room wasn't quite as nice as what we expected for the price point. Bathroom and room a bit dated. Had everything we needed though.

Nicely located hotel with spectacular views. delicious food. very helpful staff - we had to leave one day earlier, and Anna from reception arranged everything perfectly for us. very nice breakfast area and very good breakfast.

all the family rooms don't have the nicer view (to the glacier), but the view to the mountains. given that family rooms already cost a lot, it would be nice to also allow them the nicer view.
