"My husband and I enjoyed our overnight in this cottage. We were able to see the aurora borealis for the 2nd time after seeing it for the 1st time in Mývatn. Just love the layout of the cottage. Got a good sunset view. Clean and spacious. Good for family coz you can cook which is a plus factor if you want to save a little."

"Clean room, practical amenities and plenty of showers."

"We were contacted a few weeks before our stay to be told that the hotel had been rented out to a private company. We were given 2 options including moving to the sister hotel 40 mins further, and given an upgraded room, or to an apartment on the same site. It was made clear that the apartment was an upgrade but that there were no staff on site and no breakfast available. We had chosen the hotel for its location overlooking the water so opted for the apartments. The apartment was spacious with lovely linen in the bedroom and plenty of towels. However, my apartment only had two coffee sachets and no pods despite there being a machine and no tea whereas my friend in an adjacent apartment had tea and coffee pods. The apartment looked clean although the floor was 'gritty' in places and the windows were filthy so the view of the ocean was a little hampered. The shower was lovely but it didn't drain well so I had to spend time mopping up only to find that my friend had the same problem. I was also charged for the room in Euros rather than the original ISK. Given that this was our 3rd most expensive hotel (for the original room) it was disappointing. Clearly the apartments hadn't really been prepared for the season and I expect we didn't get the usual experience there. It would have been better if we had been cancelled. Interestingly the other accommodation was cheaper than we'd paid when I looked. All in all disappointing but clearly would be much better when open!"

"Breakfast was awesome, lots of variety for all travelers Dinner was ok, but expensive. "

"Great stay at Albert Guesthouse. The single room is small, but very comfortably, and there is access to a large sitting room in the common area."

"This place has a comforting and homely atmosphere."

"This property was the highlight of my Icelandic experience! It had the most beautiful, scenic location, super remote with a beautiful sea front view. I saw the northern lights 3 times from my room was an unreal experience. The place was so clean, quiet and cozy and the owners were so lovely and helpful when needed. The location is around 20 mins drive from the town so shopping and groceries were needed as it’s quite remote and the road there was a bit scary (I was there in peak winter so it was icy) but it was soo worth it. Location was very rural so I was close to the area to see seals and horses. Will never forget my time here ❤️"

"Really nice stay, comfy and clean.The best way to enjoy the northern lights!"

"Very good living environment and living conditions, suitable for business trips"
