Charming hotel with warm staff, great food and lovely views. We were so happy to see the northern lights after a fun day exploring the sights. The staff goes out of the way to make you feel welcome. We loved sipping cocktails in the warm pool and watching the stars. Amazing.

Our second time there and we already can't wait to return. The room we had was lovely, well appointed, clean and quiet in the new wing of the hotel. The staff are all friendly, helpful and knowledgable. Restaurant food good and position in Thingvellir NP is great for visiting all areas of the Golden Circle.

The service in the restaurant was really bad and not what one expect from a hotel such as ION. We told the hotel manager and they sharpen the service the following evening.

One star for restaurant staff, which did good job during breakfast and dinner. The hotel is outdated and pictures are a frame for a scam. The hotel reminds you of an old nature center / research facility, it is not a 4-Star Hotel and should not be marketed as one.

Disliked: Amenities
Seems understaffed that makes every step from check in less smooth although you can see the poor remaining staffs there were trying to make it right. I found shocks from previous guest in my room drawers and missing amenities from room, made it hard to trust if the room was properly cleaned and prepped.
