Pros:

Lovely location. Great facilities in the hotel. The food served in the restaurant is excellent.

Cons:

Our room for three people was fine and had good facilities. It felt a little "busy" with the three beds in it. Try to get an ocean view if possible. Our room faced towards the rear so we overlooked the carpark. These are minor gripes though as we would definitely stay again.

Tolles Hotel
Pros:

Sehr gutes Essen, toller Hot tub und insgesamt sehr hochwertig. Aber auch das teuerste Hotel auf unserem 10 Tage Trip
Mit weckservice für Polarlichter.

Cons:

Wenn man bereit ist für 1 Übernachtungen mit Frühstück und ein Abendessen 500 Euro auszugeben- nichts

Heerlijk hotel op goede locatie tijdens doorreis
Pros:

Luxe hotel met fijne voorzieningen. De bedden zijn heel goed, heerlijk geslapen. Lekker gegeten in het restaurant en leuke bar om een drankje te doen. Vriendelijk ontvangst door personeel.

Cons:

Kamer met uitzicht op de parkeerplaats zouden we niet nog een keer voor kiezen. Volle inkijk dus je zit met de rolgordijnen dicht. Onze kamer had een deur naar de kamer ernaast die niet op slot kon. De andere kamer was niet bezet, maar toch niet fijn. Er zijn door de spa/sauna veel mensen in badjas wat we begrijpen. Het hotel zou wat ons betreft wel mensen in badjas (half open, wel met zwembroek) moeten weren uit de bar. Voelt ongemakkelijk.

Agréable et bien situé.
Pros:

Joli hôtel, belle architecture, service agréable, bien situé. Petit déjeuner varié et bon. Carte du diner un peu succincte.
Le meilleur hôtel d’Islande durant mon voyage.
