Even though the property is located in quite a remote area, it’s very well maintained and offers great value for the price. The cleanliness and upkeep really stood out. I was especially pleased to find that the breakfast included a good variety of vegetarian and vegan options. A great choice if you don’t mind a quieter, off-the-beaten-path location and valley of tears and other breathtaking locations are also close to this spot. The only caveat is you need to let the hotel know about the late checkin and sometimes they dont pick up phone being short staffed.

The property is one of very few that give you reasonable access to the Highlands. The budget rooms are small, but you get what you pay for staff is friendly and helpful. Food in the restaurant was good and sometimes great particularly the lamb. Definitely on the revisit list

Good for our trip into the highlands of Iceland

This hotel was convenient for our trip to Landmannalauger. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Good breakfast and helpful staff. Rooms are very small.

Cons: - Rooms have zero sound proofing. - Rooms and service feel like a basic hostel yet you are paying 4 star prices. Also no kitchen. Plus they dont provide a kettle in any of the rooms. - Reception is often empty. We only stayed here as we could not find any other hotel within an hour to landmannalaugar. They seem to know this, hence the extreme pricing.

A clean and honest hotel close to landmanalaugar, which has no other accommodation options so close (except for camping and a sleeping bag hut in the mountains).

Great service and great food. The water heater runs out of hot water quickly so don’t take too long in the shower. Sauna was an amazing plus and the staff are very attentive and considerate.

For those who should stay inland, there is no other option. Otherwise, I would recommend to find a place near ring road. The room 3 of us stayed was so small and the room charge was very expensive.
