Bláskógabyggd The Cave People Hotels

"This hotel was incredible. The restaurant was delicious and a lot of the food is cooked in their Geothermal oven. We had a beautiful room that overlooked the river. Beds were comfy and we loved the hot tub. The only thing to note, is there is a strong sulfur smell in the rooms, but it didn’t bother us that much. After a while you get used to it ."

"honestly felt a bit bamboozled by the booking. The photos online clearly showed a sauna overlooking a hot spring, which was a big reason I chose this hotel. When I arrived, that feature simply did not exist at the property. It felt like false advertising, and that was pretty disappointing. The only relaxation amenity available was a hot tub with no jets. It’s basically just warm water. For a hotel promoting relaxation, that was a bit of a letdown. Like… come on. The room itself was alright—nothing spectacular, but it was clean and comfortable enough for a stay. The staff were very quiet, but they were polite and respectful. The breakfast selection was decent, but if you’re staying multiple days it gets repetitive pretty quickly. It would be nice if they rotated the options a bit, because eating the exact same breakfast every morning for several days isn’t great. Overall the stay was okay, but the misleading photos online really set the wrong expectation, which ended up being the most disappointing part of the experience."

"Amazing location - I would recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle in winter to access the hotel. Reception staff were very pleasant and informative. "

"Nice family run hotel, enjoyed the interaction with doggie and kitty. "

"We booked a room specifically advertised as having a private bathroom and a bathtub. Upon arrival, we were informed that the photos on Expedia were “incorrect” and that only one room in the entire property actually had a tub — and it was already occupied. This was not a minor detail. The bathtub was the reason we selected and paid for this room type. We were offered “free breakfast” as compensation, which was confusing since breakfast is already advertised as complimentary in the lobby. Because the room we contracted for was not available, we declined the stay and were clearly told we would be refunded. The entire check-in interaction was recorded. As of this review, no refund has been issued. Travelers should be aware that the room type advertised may not match what is actually available upon arrival. We are now disputing the charge through our credit card company due to services not rendered. We would have preferred a straightforward resolution, but unfortunately that has not happened."

"Beds were comfortable. Bathroom was gorgeous and shower was amazing. Location was beautiful. Hot tub very clean. Hosts were amazing with answering any questions we had. We were lost and they were very kind helping us find where to go. "

"Spotless, friendly and an amazing setting "

"Love the cabin. The gps is a little weird getting there. Location is close enough to selfoss that enjohying good food and shopping for essentials is easy. The stay was very enjoyable!"

"If we could give 100 stars we would. Stefan was amazing, the room was excellent. Super accommodating for our family, providing a cot and high chair for our 10 month old. We saw the lights every night from the hot tub and got engaged under the northern lights. Beautiful, spacious, secluded property. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for granting us the opportunity to enjoy your cabin. "
