Es gab nichts auszusetzen.

Rauhallinen hyvä hotelli Myvatnissa
Pros:

Kaunis järvimaisema, kunnon kokoiset huoneet. Muuta asutusta ei lähellä, mutta onneksi hotellin ravintola oli erinomainen.

Cons:

Huone oli tullessa todella kuuma, mutta onneksi ikkunan sai auki ja siinä oli hyttysverkko. Koska hotelli oli omassa rauhassaan, pystyi ikkunaa pitämään koko ajan auki.

Lovely hotel at a lovely location. A great stop on the ring road.
Pros:

Lovely property, very well maintained. The setting was gorgeous. The staff were fantastic; very friendly and helpful. Food was great both at dinner and the breakfast buffet. If we do the ring road again, we would happily stay at Hotel Laxa.

Cons:

Only one small complaint: the room was uncomfortably warm. The window didn’t open very far, so perhaps airflow was restricted. Otherwise, it was great.

Приятное место для отдыха в путешествии по Исландии
Pros:

Понравилось все. Очень стильный и комфортный отель. Мягкая постель. Потрясающий вид из окна на озеро. Возможность приготовить в номере чай и кофе. Большой плюс, что есть бар, в котором можно уютно посидеть после дня за рулем и хайкинга. Приятный и вежливый персонал. Удобная парковка.
