Overall Ratings & Reviews The Highland Center Hrauneyjar

Very nice hotel in the middle of desert, excellent location to stay going to Landmannalauger.

Even though the property is located in quite a remote area, it’s very well maintained and offers great value for the price. The cleanliness and upkeep really stood out. I was especially pleased to find that the breakfast included a good variety of vegetarian and vegan options. A great choice if you don’t mind a quieter, off-the-beaten-path location and valley of tears and other breathtaking locations are also close to this spot. The only caveat is you need to let the hotel know about the late checkin and sometimes they dont pick up phone being short staffed.

very clean and nice for such a remote seasonal lodge. excellent service and support from staff.

This hotel is really far from normal tourists spots but we wanted to hike a mountain near by so I selected this location. I really enjoyed our time here and the view was pristine and untouched land. The rooms have big windows so you have a great view.

Restaurant was little expensive

The property is one of very few that give you reasonable access to the Highlands. The budget rooms are small, but you get what you pay for staff is friendly and helpful. Food in the restaurant was good and sometimes great particularly the lamb. Definitely on the revisit list

This hotel was convenient for our trip to Landmannalauger. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Good breakfast and helpful staff. Rooms are very small.

Cons: - Rooms have zero sound proofing. - Rooms and service feel like a basic hostel yet you are paying 4 star prices. Also no kitchen. Plus they dont provide a kettle in any of the rooms. - Reception is often empty. We only stayed here as we could not find any other hotel within an hour to landmannalaugar. They seem to know this, hence the extreme pricing.

A clean and honest hotel close to landmanalaugar, which has no other accommodation options so close (except for camping and a sleeping bag hut in the mountains).

Great place to stay, highly recommend!

Great service and great food. The water heater runs out of hot water quickly so don’t take too long in the shower. Sauna was an amazing plus and the staff are very attentive and considerate.

Good location for access to local area. We were actually the only people staying in the whole place that night due to weather.

Great location near the F roads, also felt very local. Make sure to take your shoes off inside!

For those who should stay inland, there is no other option. Otherwise, I would recommend to find a place near ring road. The room 3 of us stayed was so small and the room charge was very expensive.

Great location. Did not like that there were limitations on hot water i. Showers and bathrooms were basically a shower. Had to wipe floor after a very short 5 minute shower.

Beautiful area and comfortable rooms. Food was excellent also

nice location to High land . nice environment.

Somewhat dated and basic yet adequate. Good restaurant, friendly staff, top location. Would recommend.

Comfortable "lodge" at the end of the paved road...Quiet and relaxing...Awesome tarting point to explore the "highlands"...Of note the road to lodge is paved all the way

Clean, nice helpful. Limited hot water for bath included rooms. (small heater tanks) otherwise excellent
