Nice hotel with exceptional staff and fantastic view on a lake
Pros:

Exceptional staff - everyone was nice and helpful. We were even offered to choose between the room we booked and a slightly larger one with a bit better view (thanks!). The room was very spacious, we had a nice view on a lake. Breakfast was tasty, perfect for a hiking day.

This special gem of a hotel outside of a Reykjavik was the best way to finish our two-week trip around Iceland. Highly R
Pros:

1) the hotel: the vibe was a combination of modern and homelike - the entrance and hallways very warm and friendly with furniture and unique knickknacks like stuffed bear and fox. The room was awesome: modern with huge ceiling to floor windows that overlooked the lake. The chairs in the room so comfortable.
2) the staff was very professional and hardworking yet very approachable and easy to engage in conversation. We felt very welcomed; such a friendly staff!
3) the location just outside of Reykjavik made it convenient to see sites outside the city and yet was still close enough to the city to make site-seeing trips.
4) the water pressure was wonderful!
5) WiFi was solid and strong
6) Restaurant dinner was fabulous! The cod was so fresh!
7) free parking in the courtyard

Cons:

Hotel sul lago Elidavatn
Pros:

Struttura molto carina in posizione panoramica sul lago. A pochi chilometri da Reykjavik, e’ comodo per la città e il parcheggio è privato e gratuito. La sala da pranzo ha grandi finestre affacciate sul lago. Si dorme benissimo, letto comodo e un meraviglioso silenzio. Colazione ottima.

Cons:

In camera c’era un po’ di odore di umidità.
