Una estancia perfecta
Pros:

El hotel en general es perfecto. Las vistas al lago son espectaculares, las habitaciones muy cómodas y grandes con una decoración muy bien cuidada. Las camas eran comodisimas y algo importante durante el verano teniendo en cuenta las horas de luz que hay, las cortinas tapaban muy bien la luz. El desayuno bastante completo. La ubicación está genial. También estuvimos en la sauna que estaba sola para nosotros y tiene una terraza al lago precioso.

Cons:

Por poner una pega el precio ya que es un hotel caro comparado con el resto pero en Islandia todo es caro

Thank you!
Pros:

The staff. Myaslas (spelling?) was an amazing waiter, Alexandra at the front desk was also amazing. Comfortable bed, view from the front of the hotel is stunning. Breakfast buffet was also excellent!

Cons:

The suites don’t seem to face the front of the hotel with the good view, but instead face the rear of the hotel.
