Amazing views of Hvalfjörður from this quirky hotel. Our room had a bed on the mezzanine floor so plenty of space below for luggage. Would have been good to have a second chair in the room but we made do with going to the lounge. Loved the bar & lounge/sitting room area - great for drinks or (free) cups of tea/coffee. Also great view from spa pools. Breakfast included cereal, skyr, fruit, pastries & eggs/bacon. No flat whites but tea & coffee. Easy parking. No lift but staff offered to help with luggage - we were ok just one floor up.

Beautiful view from the rooms on the hvalfjörður side, the dinning room and lounge area were outstanding.
The staff were very helpful and attentive, we very much appreciated their attention to us as tired travelers on our first night in Iceland.
The hotel manager was extremely approachable, friendly, he answered all of our questions, and gave us great information for the next few days of our adventure.
The property is under new ownership as of early 2026 and they are making visible improvements.
The dinner was excellent and the breakfast was also very good.
We asked for our thermos to be filled with boiling water and we had hot water for tea and coffee all day!
The bed was very comfortable although they are upstairs in a loft. The hotel is very quiet and we did not hear noise from other guests.
Highly recommended, and we would stay here again, especially as a base hotel to hike to the Glymer waterfall on a future trip.

The hotel staff were very welcoming! The meals offered and bar had excellent options, even for me when I have to eat gluten free. Hotel is a little dated but comfortable accommodations and nice size rooms and bathroom.

Cozy and spacious rooms. Only 50 mins drive from Reykjavik but yet a good place to see northern light. Breakfast is excellent and staffs are helpful.
