"Convenient location with comfortable room. The restaurant is excellent for dinner, the included breakfast was great with fresh baked bread daily.
We enjoyed the hot tub next to the river, including the quick dip in the river (November)."

We had a fantastic time here. The cabin was warm, clean and spacious and private with everything we needed to be self sufficient catering-wise.
It was fabulous to be able to just step out on the deck to see the Aurora two nights in a row!
We'd highly recommend this fabulous accommodation!

Very easy to book , good value and excellent communication all the way to check in, very comfortable, clean, modern and spacious with everything you could need. Excellent parking, very easy to find and in a nice quiet location with some great scenery and lots to see close by. Hot tubs are a bonus and are a perfect place to relax in the evening.

The rating is actually 4.5 and its just because on our first day, our towels smelled so musty so we had to have them replaced. Also the corridors can be very noisy especially since the doors are heavy and slams if not guided to a close. If your room is close to the Spa, the geothermal smell (sulphurish) can be smelt in your room though that is not the hotels fault at all.
The reason I continued to give it 5 stars though is because these things are bearable and is not entirely a deal breaker...

Combining wilderness and luxury, you couldn’t feel cosier inside the small hotel with views ready to strike wonder at every turn.
Part industrial hipster warehouse with cement, part luxurious soft furnished grandeur, part nordic chic, you can firmly sink into comfort while the wilderness sweeps over you with breathtaking power.

Johanna who runs the apartments was the most helpful person ever, she went above and beyond I cannot thank her enough. The apartments were modern, spacious, clean & had everything you need such as cooking facilities which is a must in Iceland how expensive eating out is. A supermarket and bakery is across the road also a pizza takeaway. If you forget anything there is a box in reception to help you out. The huge windows looks over the mountains which is truly spectacular. A little bit out from...

A stunning place to stay! The tower rooms are suitable for couples; with beautiful bedroom + bathroom and small kitchenette. The viewing area at the top of the tower, equipped with sheepskin rugs and pillows is an awesome place to watch the Northern Lights. The owner lives nearby and is friendly and informative he was once a chicken farmer - now practicing and teaching Taoism. That's Iceland for you. The tower is in easy striking distance of the Grand Circe and South Coast sights.

We stayed one night at the guesthouse, after a day around the Golden Circle. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable and it was so lovely to use the hot tub and sauna after our long day of sightseeing. The staff were very helpful and I would recommend staying at this guesthouse.

This trip was a gift for my wife, to say she was pleased would be an understatement!
Having never been to Iceland before and not really knowing a lot about the country, I used the reviews on Expedia to make my choice of where to stay.
My wife and I were both very pleased with the accommodation at Frost and Fire. I opted for a superior suite, as I read the standard rooms are on the small size. Our room was very pleasant and clean, with a buautiful view of rivers and hills from the balcony....

From the moment we arrived, until the minute we left, we were treated as valued guests. The hotel is based on a working horse farm offering a variety of rides and the horse theme is carried throughout the hotel, with rooms named after horses and even horse shoes for curtain tie backs which is a lovely touch.
