Perla vacantei noastre in Islanda!
Pros:

Totul!!!!
Locatia, patul super - confortabil, personalul, mancarea, privelistea din camera pe care am rezervat-o si de pe terasa hotelului si mai ales faptul ca te suna in camera cand apare aurora boreala pentru a o putea admira pe viu!!!!

Beautiful hotel and delicious restaurant
Pros:

Great hotel and food was good

Cons:

Our only issue was that we stayed here multiple nights and called to ask for our room to be serviced (we only really wanted more coffee and clean towels) but house keeping never came either day that we called down and asked.

Modern and Clean Stay
Pros:

Reception was friendly. Interconnected room.

Cons:

Too modern for my liking in Iceland context. The room was dark & no milk provided to make coffee. The design of the table was not friendly. We kept knocking our head at the wooden cabinet/shelf.
