Pros:

Très bon établissement ! Que ce soit la propreté, l’accueil ou le petit-déjeuner, nous avons été entièrement satisfait. Le petit-déjeuner est bien garni et vous offre du choix. L’emplacement et le prix sont également des points forts. Je recommande vivement.

Per un Riposo Sereno e una Ottima Colazione
Pros:

Siamo stati per una notte in questo hotel e ci siamo trovati molto bene: l'ambiente è tranquillo e le camere sono silenziose. La colazione è buona e con una buona varietà di scelta, e il personale è gentile.
La struttura, anche se immediatamente fuori da Höfn, è molto comoda rispetto alla Ring Road e offre la possibilità di parcheggiare gratuitamente.
PS per chi interessa possono anche preparere Sandwich da asporto.

Bit on the older side for the rooms. Breakfast good but not great
Pros:

Staff were great. Owner manages the place

Cons:

Drains were making noises all night. Rooms are basic but mattresses were comfortable. Breakfast buffet area needs more space

Beautiful views!
Pros:

It is located in a quiet area. It was at least a 12 minute drive to Hofn where the restaurants are. The views around the property were very nice. They did have a nice free breakfast that came with the room.

Cons:

It was super cold when we got to our room. We finally got the heat on to warm our room. It took a while to warm up.

Desayuno espectacular
Pros:

El desayuno era muy bueno, muy completo. El entorno y las instalaciones son muy bonitas, desde la ventana ves el glaciar.

Cons:

Al reservarlo contábamos con la opción de cenar ahí en el restaurante y estaba cerrado. No hay opciones cercanas ni opción de cocinar en las habitaciones.
