Beautiful place with horses. Hótel has rooms, separate houses and campsites. Rooms are outdated but clean. Breakfast was delicious and fresh. Dinner is available so separate charge

A bit outdated rooms. Pillows are thin but soft

Peaceful stay with charming surroundings, but communication and listing accuracy could be improved.
Pros:

The hotel was peaceful and quiet. Also the dogs were cute. Decent breakfast but more cheese options would be nice. My husband enjoyed the cured lamb leg as one of the breakfast choices. Although the horses weren't ready for riding for the season, the owner provided us suggestions for local tour companies in which we appreciated and made a booking with.

Cons:

In our three night stay, not once did I see a staff member located at the reception desk. Even when I rang the bell (it said to ring bell if no one was at desk), nobody showed up. The hotel listing on booking.com seems to imply that there would be horses and riding tours offered, which was one of the main reasons we booked our stay here. I messaged the owner (since I could not find a staff member to ask the quesiton), and he said that the horses were not ready for the season yet. I wish we knew this in advance.

Wir empfehlen das Hotel gerne weiter.
Pros:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit toller Aussicht auf den Eyjafjallajökull. Da wir die einzigen Gäste im Hotel waren , war es sehr ruhig. Das Zimmer war sauber, warm und die Betten sehr bequem. Wir hatten ein reichliches Frühstückbuffet für uns alleine. Die jungen Leute, die uns zum Frühstück begrüßten , waren sehr nett und zuvorkommend.
Eine schöne Unterkunft mit guten Ausflugsmöglichkeiten.

Cons:

Vielleicht noch ein Hot Tub als I-Tüpfelchen.

Pros:

Bei unserem Aufenthalt waren wir die einzigen Gäste (Anfang Mai), trotzdem haben wir ein ausgezeichnetes, reichhaltiges Frühstücksbuffet vorgefunden mit allem was das Herz begehrt.

Die Zimmer sind einfach, aber funktional, es stehen zwei Gemeinschaftskühlschränke zur Verfügung, ein kostenloser Billardtisch und eine kleine Snackecke.

Wir waren rundum zufrieden und können diese Unterkunft absolut empfehlen!

Pros:

Accueil sympathique et chaleureux, hôtel très bien entretenu. La déco est resté coincé dans les annees 70 mais cela fait le charme du lieu.
Très bons lits et magnifique petit déjeuner.
