It's a really nice hotel to stay for a night or two. Very convenient location close to the airport. Don't bother to bring food to the hotel because the kitchen on the site is full of food that people leave behind:)

Perfect stop for our last night before we flew home the next morning! Super clean, the shared kitchen was really nice to have access to. The room was nice and simple, but cozy, decorated tastefully and the view from our window was beautiful looking right at the lupines.

The hotel is nice, beautiful view, it is clean with big bathroom. But our car has been hit in the parking lot and the driver run, however the hotel does not have any CCTV around the parking lot and no help. :(

Such a fun modern lace to stay. The shower was heavenly and the soaps smelled fantastic. The cabin was surrounded by lupine and it was just beautiful. I loved every bit of our short stay.

Great clean property. Was able to get a taxi at 5AM right to the airport. Use the taxi service they suggest as it’s timely and a reasonable price. Was about $50 to get to the airport which isn’t bad considering others were quoting $100+

Amazing room and super clean. Smelled as fresh as could be upon entering. Comfortable beds and pillows. Just wish the hot tubs were up and running while we stayed there.

We stayed for 3 nights. Loved how the towels and bed sheets had a lovely clean scent. The location is very convenient to access the airport, but we didnt hear any planes. It was very quiet and seeing the horses through the window every morning was lovely. Definitely recommend this place, and hope we can stay here again next time we visit Iceland.
