1 nuit lors d’un road trip en Icelande
Pros:

La qualité du lit et de la literie, la gentillesse du personnel et la propreté. Le petit déjeuner

Cons:

Le manque d’un espace SPA (pays réputé pour ses bains chauds, c’est dommage de ne pas retrouver cela dans l’hébergement pour se détendre le soir). La chambre avec de grandes fenêtres qui donnaient sur le cimetière juste derrière.

Pros:

Tolles Hotel mit wirklich sehr freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Personal. Wir haben beim check-in ein Upgrade auf das beste Zimmer bekommen, was sehr grosszügig ist & wir wirklich geschätzt haben.
Hervorzuheben ist die Freundlichkeit des Personals was wirklich exzellent ist.
Das Restaurant am Abend war hervorragend.
Das Frühstück ist vielfältig, uns wurde sogar Eierspeisen „a la minute“ zubereitet.

Pros:

Nice property, classic 60's building, nice restaurant, friendly helpful staff. Location nice close by the water, good views, great restaurants nearby port city. Best option in town, free parking was a bonus.

Cons:

Rooms are kind of small. Bathroom and shower area run together with a painted floor, kind of cheesy for everything else being slightly nicer. No elevator to get your suitcases and bags to upper floors, had to haul up two flights of stairs.
