"The setting is magical but most businesses are closed, including the hotels restaurant, in September. Plan accordingly! "

"A very nice hotel at Lake Mývatn - the grounds are lovely, the room was comfortable, the breakfast was amazing, and the staff were fantastic and helpful!"

"The cabin is set in an amazing and beautiful location, with stunning views of the fjords and water all around. We enjoyed walking the property and even met the arctic fox that roams freely, which was a highlight. The boat hot tub was a great spot to relax while taking in the views. The cabin itself was spacious, and we appreciated that laundry was available, though there is only one machine and it’s accessible only in the evenings. The kitchen had all the basic utensils and pans for cooking, but it lacked essentials like salt, pepper, and oil. We had to purchase seasonings, and even our cabin neighbors asked if they could borrow some. Some aspects of the cabin felt outdated. The couch was worn, and the bed was very soft and sagging—uncomfortable enough that I woke up with back pain. The loft area (which we didn’t use) also seemed not to be properly cleaned, with unfolded blankets and pillows left around. That made us question whether other parts of the cabin had been cleaned thoroughly. Overall, this is a beautiful property with incredible views and unique features, but there are a few areas that need improvement to match the amazing setting."

"Really fabulous property. Room was wonderful. Food great (breakfast was really good and on-site dinner great). Staff were helpful and friendly. "

"Wonderful hotel in a charming seaside town. Super close to walking trail and harbor. Sophia at the front desk was amazing. Helped me figure out our laundry situation. They have a cool cold plunge, infrared sauna and hot tub. Shared kitchen and complimentary coffee and tea 24/7. Loved it here!"

"Excellent facilities, especially the kitchen. A very nice guesthouse. "

"Rooms are small, but the community kitchen was nice and it was located near local restaurants. The views around this area of the mountains and waterfalls is stunning!!"

"Very friendly staff, beautifully renovated vintage building, comfortable bed, wonderful hosts! Highly recommended!"

"Very friendly staff, quiet location and close to Studlagil canyon. Dining option is limited but the restaurant at the hotel is good. Breakfast is served included, a big plus since food is expensive in Iceland. Definitely Will stay again in the future."
