Great place to stay if you want to spend more time at the Glacier Lagoon and Diamond beach. We spent 2 nights here. This area is a bit pricey but we wanted to enjoy.

We LOVED this hotel! The room was spotless, super comfortable beds and amazing views right outside. Behind the "house" there are waterfalls. Location was super close to the Jokulsarlon Glacial Lagoon. This was our favorite hotel for our trip in Iceland and wish we had the opportunity to stay longer than a night.

all'arrivo c'è un foglietto scarno... le bevande pensavo fossero incluse perchè sul foglietto scarno non c'era scritto niente a proposito... alla prenotazione mi sembrava ci fosse una sorta di sauna di cui non ho trovato traccia... servizio tutto self check impersonale e ovviamente freddo... non ci tornerei anche se la vista e il posto sono belli

Cozy property at a perfect location

Beautiful scenery from our bedroom window...including glaciers and the views of the icebergs floating in the lake. The room also had a view of several waterfalls. Beware of the summer no-see-ums.

Good: Room was excellent: spacious, clean, comfortable, view from window, chair and small table to sit at, big TV. It's a very nice room in an expensive area, no more, no less Could improve: cars could park in front of window partially blocking view; somewhere to prepare a simple meal as very limited opportunities to eat elsewhere relatively cheaply. Update the door opening instructions.

The location is good. However, it is like a B&B facility. No service desk. The customer support seems cold and un-helpful. Also, there is not enough table space in the bathroom or in the room for guests to perform necessary functiions
