would stay despite minor issue

We loved the location for the Golden Circle. Great breakfast buffet and dinner. Walking distance from Laugarvatn Geothermal Pool (highly recommended). The staff was great. The only issue was ventilation. The weather in Iceland during the week was in the 70's!!! Poor ventilation in room. One small window to open, very warm/stuffy. We has a very small room, no closet or dresser. Only one rack of hooks. They could add more hooks in room and more hooks in bathroom for towels. The bathroom was small, no space for personal items. The glass shower was not sealed properly and water poured out of the bottom. Had to get more towels to mop up floor. No television-which wasn't an issue but sometimes nice to watch some TV after long day of exploring area. We went to the Laugarvatn Geothermal baths on the second day-highly recommended. Ended up showering there. Also went to restaurant Linden on 2nd night after geothermal pools. Great meal.

The room was clean and neat but small. One side of the hotel faces the highway but it was quiet at night. There was no TV, only 1 chair, no bedside tables. The bathroom was very nice. There is a very nice lounge area for the guests with a great coffee machine as well as games.

Nice Stay in the Area!

Friendly & helpful staff and the hotel had beautiful views of the lake and nearby mountain. We opted for the breakfast which included fresh baked bread, and the downstairs area was relaxing to read. The local thermal springs were also walking distance. Since we were there end of May, I would recommend a sleeping mask for the outdoor light because our room didn’t have blackout curtains and ear plugs because you could hear noise from the road.

The room was clean and organized. As advertised, it was very simple with no frills. Could stand to have a few more pillows. Otherwise it’s a perfectly fine place to have a drink and spend the night.

Lovely place in a lovely location

Very clean and spacious room, even though I booked a single room. Bathroom was lovely, lovely shower, and local Icelandic shower gel which smells incredible! Great coffee/tea machine that you can help yourself to 24/7, great for those times when you need to be awake at 2am for an Aurora run. Lovely views of Laugarvatn lake and beautiful mountains on the other side. Great location in the golden circle close to Friðheimar tomato farm, Þingvellir national park, Geysir and Brúarfoss to name a few. Few minutes walk to the lovely Laugarvatn Fontana geothermal baths. Would stay again.

We loved how quiet and serene this property was. Only complaint is that the wooden ramp off the annex was super slippery in the snow.

Comfortable, clean, perfect stay if you want to visit the Laurgavatn Fontana (and geothermal bakery) Comfortable beds, simple but plentiful breakfast. No hair dryers in the rooms, but friendly staff will gladly provide you with one if asked. Would love to come back and stay a little longer than just one night!

Really beautiful facilities in a great location. Lake side views from the room were awesome. Gas station, supermarket, and good restaurant right down the street, but very peaceful area close to many attractions. Friendly staff. Best soap.
