Peaceful stay in Laugar
Pros:

It was a really nice and calm place. Clean, tidy, peaceful. We ate for dinner at the restaurant and I can say I had the most amazing meal for my entire stay in Iceland.

Cons:

There is really nothing negative to say, maybe just one suggestion - breakfast at 8 is quite late, especially for a place like this, where people have a tight schedule. But they were very nice and prepared a packed breakfast for us.

C’etait parfait, hébergement et restauration
Pros:

Tout fut parfait, de l'accueil des jeunes gérants au confort de notre chambre.
Une bonne expérience des bains extérieurs également.
Le repas fut également très bien comme le petit déjeuner.
Je recommande même pour un séjour prolongé dans la région. Ce qui n’était pas notre cas.

Meraviglioso
Pros:

Camera molto graziosa a due passi dalla zona relax munita di piscine geotermali gratuite per tutti gli ospiti. La vera nota positiva sono i proprietari e tutto lo staff che con il loro spirito accogliente ti fa sentire coccolato. Consigliamo assolutamente di cenare, in quanto la cucina del cuoco/proprietario davvero buona e super apprezzata.

Cons:

Niente

Pros:

Нас встретила замечательная, приветливая и разговорчивая словацкая пара. После дороги мы отдохнули в горячем источнике, который располагается прямо на территории отеля.
На ужин подали прекрасные блюда запечёные в печи вот прямо при нас. Да и в целом чувствовался семейный уют.
Тихое, спокойное, красивое место. Просторный, конфортный и чистый номер. Жалко, что оставались на одну ночь.

Familiäre Atmosphäre in ländlicher Umgebung
Pros:

Der nette Empfang von Besitzern und Personal, die bequemen Betten, der Hot-Pool und die Sauna, das Restaurant, die Waffeln zum Frühstück.

Cons:

An der ein oder anderen Stelle (z.B. dem Badezimmer) gibt es Renovierungsbedarf. Aber aus unserer Sicht nicht an wesentlichen Punkten.

Like staying on the family farm if your family was a really great chef.
Pros:

The property and staff were amazing. The food at the restaurant was the highlight tho. We stayed there three nights and we thought it was perfect to go whale watching and explore the canyon then come back to the hotel for home cooked meal, relax in the sauna and have a comfy bed. Since we stayed three nights and most guests stay only 1 or 2… the chef made us a special meal since they have their meals on a rotate. Every meal is exceptional. They take so much pride into their place, if you are considering it… this is your sign to just book it. Just wish we could have met Morgan :)

Cons:

Wish there were more pillows and lattes for breakfast.

Rewelacja
Pros:

Jeśli podróżujesz po Diamentowym Kręgu – nawet się nie zastanawiaj. Aurora to idealne miejsce na złapanie oddechu i nocleg, a nawet kilka noclegów. Obiekt pięknie położony, bezpośrednia bliskość szlaków trekkingowych.

Nie jest to kolejny hotel na drodze - to miejsce o które ktoś dba, które ktoś dogląda. Niezwykle czysto. Fantastyczne baseny z geotermną – 3 baseny z 3 różnymi temperaturami wody. Obok wspaniała sauna. Bardzo dobre jedzenie. Byliśmy łącznie w 16 osób – i nie było problemu z zamówieniem, sprawną uśmiechniętą obsługą. Jakość jedzenia – bez zarzutu. Pyszna pizza z dodatkiem miodu – nasza ulubiona;)

Gospodarze to sensowni ludzie. Ogarnięci i operatywni. Czujesz się zaopiekowany będąc w tym miejscu.
Ściskamy Was serdecznie. Do szybkiego zobaczenia!
