Bel hôtel en pleine nature.
Pros:

Un des meilleurs hôtel de notre périple. L'accueil sympathique. On a demandé à changer de chambre pour avoir la vue côté montagne et cela été sans problème. Chambre spacieuse et confortable. Environnement isolé et très calme. Bon restaurant sur place à l'hôtel pour éviter des kilomètres à des prix raisonnable selon le niveau de vie Islandais. Bon rapport qualité prix.

Pros:

Fatto il check-in anche a 00:00 con il sole. Stupenda la location, la zona in comune ha una vetrata grandissima sull’esterno molto suggestiva. Posto pulitissimo, spazioso e accogliente

Pros:

Etwas von der Ringstraße abgelegenes Hotel, das für mich jeden Umweg lohnt! Sehr einfach zu finden, wunderschöne Gegend für kleinere Ausflüge an die Küste, in die Asbyrgi Schlucht oder die nächstgelegenen Wasserfälle. Uns hat es hier sehr gut gefallen, das Zimmer war sehr geräumig (und barrierefrei), die Betten sehr bequem und die Ausstattung wunderbar. Das Frühstück war fantastisch, die Auswahl groß und alles sehr lecker. Hier würde ich definitiv nochmal und länger übernachten um die wilde Natur zu erkunden.
