The view outside the room is amazing! Room is clean, bed is comfort and staff is friendly. It would be better if they have a microwave for customers use.

We prefer country locations with a good view and this certainly what we look for. It would appear (maybe just our experience but we asked this) that the hotel caters mainly for German bus tours. Indeed I think that we were the only non-Germans there. Our room was spacious and had an excellent view over the fjord. Indeed we awoke to see a cruise liner arriving. We had a private door out on to the front decking, which was nice. There was a really nice buffet dinner (and breakfast the next day), with a choice of lamb, salmon, cold meats etc. The hotel is conveniently located for the Godafoss waterfall – we went out to that after dinner, and also to Lake Mývatn and the lava fields.

The "Hotel with a View" has just that - an amazing view. It offers such a beautiful deck to enjoy the view as well as very comfortable common areas to relax in. Sunset from the deck was aboslutely gorgeous. The room was nice sized with a lovely view as well of the fjord. We thoroughly enoyed our two nights stay here - it was one of our favorites of the entire trip. Our triple was good sized and so clean and comfortable. The breakfast buffet was great with hot eggs and bacon. Dinner buffet was amazing with excellent smoked salmon and roasted salmon for the main course. This was an unexpected treat. The owners family dog was especially friendly.

The hotel is clean and very well maintained. It is obvious the owners care about it a lot. The view is lovely. Quality of mattresses not very good.

Triste. Unico aggettivo per descrive questo hotel. Arredamento decisamente datato, e poco funzionale. Non siamo riusciti neanche a fare la doccia perché è stato impossibile regolare l'acqua bollente.

Schön gelegen am Fjord mit tollen Blick auf das Meer. Nicht weit bis Akureyri (ca. 10km) und bis Myvatn auch nur ca. 60min. Latent unsauber mit Haarbüschel im Zimmer. Handtuchwehel bei 5 Tagen Aufenthalt gab es nicht. Das Perlonal macht leider den Eindruck, als hätte es absolut keinen Spass an der Arbeit.

Abbiamo soggiornato una sola notte e salverei solo la veduta panoramica (peraltro non dalle stanze ma dall'esterno della struttura). Non consiglierei questo hotel per I seguenti motivi: Il personale si è rivelato molto incompetente e poco professionale, sia a colazione (avevamo bisogno del caffè caldo e le persone che poi abbiamo capito essere gli addetti al servizio rimanevano seraficamente seduti a far la loro colazione senza qualificarsi e aiutarci), sia per una tassa che ci hanno addebitato in aggiunta al prezzo pattuito (abbiamo chiesto spiegazioni alla reception e la ragazza che c'era ci ha risposto in un inglese stentato e scusandosi che non sapeva che tassa fosse, avrebbe dovuto informarsi ma non c'era nessuno cui chiedere; così, dovendo partire, l'abbiamo pagata e via). Le stanza sono arredate male e in maniera obsoleta e il bagno, già in sè minuscolo, aveva un lavandino talmente piccolo che non riuscivi a lavarti nemmeno I denti perchè sbattevi la testa alla mensolina. Dispersivo e caotico, la sensazione è stata di essere abbandonati a noi stessi più del normale. Troppo caro per quello che offre, meglio una guesthouse dentro Akureyri, tanto più che in islanda non mancano di certo I panorami!

Comme beaucoup d'hôtels de ce pays, l'aspect extérieur quelque peu basic ne correspond pas du tout à l'intérieur. La décoration de cet hôtel est chaleureuse sans être trop lourde. Le hall principal et sa grande cheminée, ainsi que la terrasse d'entrée avec vue sur le fjord sont un vrai plus. Les chambres et les sanitaires sont simples mais confortables. Notre chambre possédait un petite balcon avec vue sur le fjord que nous avons particulièrement apprécié. Le repas du soir était bon, mais servi en buffet. Pour le prix demandé nous aurions préféré un service à table

Mooi uitzicht over het Fjord. Het slechtste bed waarin ik de laatste 10 jaar heb geslapen! Totaal geradbraakt in de ochtend! Weinig comfortabele badkamer met reukhinder. Matige netheid. Prijs-kwaliteit van het avondeten (buffetvorm) ondermaats.

Huggulegt viðmót, ágæt herbergi og góður morgunmatur. Við völdum að kaupa kvöldverð hjá hótelinu, þ.E. hlaðborðið, í stað þess að borða á Akureyri. Maturinn stóð alls ekki undir væntingum þó verðið væri frekar hátt eða 5200 kr. Kjötið var ofeldað og sósan bragðlaus. Vantaði einhvern veginn bragðið í þetta allt saman. Mundi ekki velja þetta aftur eða mæla með því að óbreyttu!
