Sort of like an oasis in the wilderness!
Pros:

This is a very nice hotel on the south side of Lake Myvatn. The room was outstanding. We loved the dinner in the restaurant -- our first experience with Blue Ling. And of course the breakfast was excellent too.

Cons:

No problems.

Pros:

The room was comfortable and well equipped. The view is just spectacular! The design of the hotel is modern. It felt like being in a museum. Plus they have ping-pong table to play and a bar to chill after a long walking day.

Cons:

Nothing to note
