Beautiful hotel. Comfortable rooms. Delicious dinner and breakfast. Great sauna with a very serene view. The only thing I would add is to say that bathing suits area required in the sauna being that it is public.

The hotel was the perfect stay for us during our trip along the Ring Road. Our room was very clean and comfortable. There's not much in the area, so we dined at the on-site restaurant. I would warn that the dinner can be quite expensive for the meal portion you receive (compared to some of the other hotel dinners that we had during the rest of our 12-day Ring Road adventure). The morning breakfast buffet was really good though, so don't skip out on that for a fresh start to the day!

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and truly enjoyed every moment. The atmosphere was very cozy, welcoming, and friendly. A special thank you to the amazing staff member from Poland, who went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. She was always happy to help and even assisted us with drying our shoes after we got completely soaked while visiting a waterfall. Her kindness and attention to detail made a huge difference. The breakfast was also very good, with a great selection and quality food. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Iceland. Thank you for such a great experience - we will definitely be back!

Great location. I thought there was a hottub or pool but was mistaken. The sauna was nice and had a serene view of the landscape. The restaurant served a great menu and the cocktails were very good as well.

Gorgeous modern hotel with great staff, I loved my mountain view room and found it large, luxurious, and spotlessly clean. There's some expansion construction going on but it wasn't disruptive. The sauna and trail to the private black sand beach are great amenities! The bar and restaurant were amazing in creativity and quality, and I really appreciated the staff seating me at a great table by the window for dinner as a solo female traveler instead of sticking me in the back!

A truly beautiful and relaxing stay from start to finish. Check-in was seamless and welcoming, setting the tone for a wonderful experience. The sauna was absolutely stunning—floor-to-ceiling glass windows overlooking a softly snow-covered field created such a peaceful, almost magical atmosphere. Thoughtful touches like plush slippers and an incredibly comfortable robe made it feel extra luxurious. The room details were equally impressive. The coffee maker had the feel of a high-end café machine, yet was so simple to use—just pop in a pod and enjoy. The bathroom was beautiful, with soft, plush robes and towels that made it hard to leave such a cozy space. Dinner was spectacular. The fresh bread paired with an incredible butter spread was a standout, and the Atlantic char was beautifully presented and absolutely divine. The drink selection was also excellent. Breakfast was just as impressive—an abundant and beautifully presented spread with fresh baked breads, eggs, vegetables, pastries, meats, cheeses, and yogurts. It was the perfect way to start the day. Check-out was just as effortless, and the thoughtful offer of tea or water for the road was a lovely final touch. We would absolutely stay again—and next time, we’re looking forward to enjoying the private beach.

This hotel is absolutely amazing! It’s so clean and beautiful. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly, always going the extra mile. For example, when we checked out early, they prepared croissants to take away. We also forgot our water bottle on reception when leaving, but one of the staff members ran it to us in a car park! The restaurant on site is fabulous. The food is really good, and the atmosphere is nice. The views are breathtaking. There’s also a sauna, which is a nice touch. The Black Beach Walk is also scenic.

The hotels location is incredible; close to not one but two waterfalls plus other great attractions. Dont go to the black sand beach with all the tourists because the hotel has access to your own, private black sand beach. The staff was warm, professional and accommodating. They come tell you or grab you from the dinner table (as they did with us) when the aurora was showing! The rooms were small but nice. Only complaint about the room was the bathroom sink; it was too small that any time we washed up we got water all over the place! The food was delicious however the menu is small so if you’re eating dinner on site more than 2 nights in a row you may get bored. Overall, we would absolutely recommend Umi!!!
