L’ hôtel est bien situé agréable pour voir aurores boréales, petit déjeuner parfait’ les chambres sont un peu vieillottes et bruyantes.

The property location was beautiful and remote. The rooms were lovely, clean and nicely furnished. The bathroom was nice too but the shower curtain was a little moldy

Einfache, gepflegte Unterkunft. Nicht sehr modern aber in Ordnung. Liebevoll gemachte Schlüsselanhänger.
Für die reine Übernachtung ausreichend und mehr wollten wir nicht daher total ok. Aufgrund sehr hoher Preise des Restaurants haben wir dort nicht gegessen und Vorräte mitgenommen. Es gibt einen kühlschrank und einen wasserkocher.
In der Umgebung ausschließlich Natur, man sollte seine Einkäufe daher planen.
Restaurant kann ich nicht bewerten da wir es weder zum frühstücken noch zum Abendessen genutzt haben. Tolle Aussicht auf den Vulkan Hekla.

Hotel se situant au sud du Cercle d'Or, idéal point de chute pour combiner le Cercle d'Or et la cote sud en deux jours. Parfaitement isolé, idéal pour voir des aurores boréales, si vous avez de la chance d'y séjourner au bon moment.
Etablissement qui mériterait peut être un petit rafraichissement, mais c'est propre et fonctionnel, c'est ce que nous recherchions. Petit déjeuner copieux et avec beaucoup de choix. La personne à la réception a été très avenante lors de notre départ, en nous avertissant de fortes rafales de vents sur la cote Sud,.. petite attention très appréciée si vous rencontrez une tempête de vent comme celle que nous avons vécue.

Island zum Kennenlernen
Sehr gute Lage im Süden von Island. Wir hatten 2 Familiensuites. Die Zimmer und Badezimmer waren sehr gross. Bequemes Bett. Wasserkocher mit Tee und Kaffee, kleiner Kühlschrank im Zimmer. Badezimmer mit Dusche und Fön. Leider ohne Schminkspiegel.
Frühstücksbuffet mit Salzigem und Süssem (auch Waffeln zum selber machen :-)). Selber gemachter Hauskuchen und Brot. Feine Butter.
Abendessen à la carte ziemlich teuer und kleine Auswahl.

4/10 Fair
paid for 2 nights, left after 1. Do not recommend
This hotel is in a beautiful location along the Golden Circle and close to the bigger town of Selfoss. The hotel itself is in desperate need of renovation and repair. Our room was tiny, with extremely old furniture, no bathroom space to even brush your teeth and a weird shower combination that left the entire bathroom floor wet. Just touching the greasy remote for the television was disgusting. We booked and paid for two nights and we were so unhappy that we left after the first night, losing our second night's payment. For the money, this hotel is well below the standards of any hotel we stayed in Iceland. The pictures on the website depict modern rooms with nice furniture, which was obviously nothing like our room. The breakfast was fine. The staff were not necessarily rude, but were definitely not friendly.

Overall it was good. The remote for the tv did not work. There should really be a phone in the rook, in case for emergencies. This is a great place to stay if you want to stay outside of the city!

Digno de un Fosshotel
Agradable y tranquilo hotel cerca de el Circulo Dorado , la habitación impecable, la mas grande de todo mi circuito que agradezco sobre manera al ser tres personas. Habitacion calentita con buen baño- El personal atento y agradable, el desayuno bueno. Para nosotros lo catalogamos en 2º lugar de nuestra visita a la isla, el primero el fosshotel Myvatn.

Our first room was older and had a bad smell. Luckily the front desk attendant moved us with no problem to another room that was newer and had no smell. Good hotel and had a nice restaurant with a great view.

Frustrating stay
This previously family owned property has many things in its favour but still a way to go to offer a consistent experience to its customers. It is located well to visit key local attractions, we were welcomed professionally and liked the times we used the bar area. The dining area décor is good and the evening meal menu ok (but not good enough to be tempted to eat there twice. Unfortunately the quality of the room was well below average. 1970s style work furniture and a small rather musty smelling bathroom really soured the experience, despite there being tea and coffee making facilities which was a bonus compared to other properties we used. The shower temperature was very unreliable too despite supposedly being thermostatically controlled. Breakfast was generally good but if we ate later in the morning some choices were no longer available such as fruit and yogurt. By our third and final day the only fruit on offer was rather brown-coloured apple hacked into chunks! It was a frustrating stay - hopefully, over time, they will address the issues with the hotel as it has so much potential

Design hotel in the beauty of Southern Region
The hotel has a great look, positions itself beautifully within the surroundings. The design inside is sleek. The rooms are comfortable, have modern look and offer the amenities you would expect from a boutique hotel. Great communal areas, too.

Stay in the suite; it is fantastic. Hotel staff were super and friendly. Breakfast was very good. Only drawback was it is located far from the main cities in the area.

Breakfast was very good. The rest of the stay was rather underwhelming, would have liked to know that the front desk did not have staffing after a certain hour. Also, the pictures of the rooms that were posted did not reflect the actual rooms. Would suggest also posting the rooms that aren’t updated so that guests know what they are getting in to
