Très bon séjour
Pros:

Très bel hôtel, dans un magnifique emplacement. La chambre triple est confortable, bien qu'un peu petite lorsque l'on est en famille.

Cons:

Dès lors que nous ouvriions la fenêtre, il y avait un fort courant d'air qui faisait énormément de bruit, c'est un peu dommage car il faisait un peu chaud dans la chambre.

Pros:

I had a room on the second floor with seaview. After sight seeing it was perfect to sit in front of the window and enjoy the stunning view. It was clean and the room has a good size. The bathroom has also a really good size. A coffee machine is available as well as tea bags. Easy check-in and -out. Nice wellness area. A laundry service is available. There is a small choice of snacks (sandwiches, chips, drinks, yoghurt etc) available, if you do not want to use the restaurant.

Cons:

Be aware that the hotel lies perfectly at the ring road and to some main attractions in the south. So the hotel is big and there are a lot of people. So do not expect to be alone in the wellness area.

Pros:

Opravdu velmi hezký hotel, fajn změna oproti guesthousům. Úžasná lokalita hned vedle ledovce, výhled na moře, skvělé wellness/spa s venkovní vířivkou s výhledem na auroru. Hezký bar a restaurace. Velmi hezký pokoj a koupelna.

Schick aufgemachtes Hotel aber zu teuer. Wir würden demnächst wahrscheinlich ein anderes Hotel buchen.
Pros:

Insgesamt war es ein gutes Hotel mit freundlichem Personal, hoher Sauberkeit und einem guten Restaurant.

Cons:

Das Restaurant, wo auch das Frühstücksbuffet stattfindet, hatte etwas Markthallen Flair, und es war relativ unruhig. Die Economy Zimmer befinden sich im Souterrain, wodurch sie einen etwas ungemütlichen Flair haben.
