The entire area was out of power overnight and into the next morning, but the staff did an excellent job of making us as comfortable as possible. Their location within a 30 minutes drive to Jokularsalon Glacier Lagoon was very convenient.

Everything! Our room was cozy and we had a huge window with view towards the south. Staff was very friendly. There was a long power outing one evening and the hotel offered a cold buffet to all guests. Location is perfect to explore Skaftafell national Park and the glaciers.

Amazing, high-end hotel by Jokularson Lagoon. The rooms were extremely clean and modern. It was easy to drive out and try to catch the northern lights. Best hotel I stayed at while in Iceland and would definitely stay again.

Restaurant was ridiculously expansive with and overly ambitious menu. I strongly recommend checking out the menu before planning to eat there. We ended up not having breakfast or dinner, just ate sandwiching.
Beautiful rooms. Changed our room to one with a better view when checking in. Perfect location to get to glaciers.

The hotel was great. Even in the winter season busy, but it didn't bother us. We have had the best dinner there on all our 15 days stay in Iceland. Opted for the set menu with matched wines, and we were not disappointed. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was good and quiet. The view from the room is very nice, even we didn' enjoy it much due to the short days in winter.

Breakfast was international and ok. Unfortunately there was just one toaster for all people there which caused some waiting time. But as another guest mentioned to me while we were standind there and waiting... you shouldn't be in a rush during breakfast time and just relax. Basically complaining on a very high level :-)
We had a suite with great view to the mountains and the ocean. There was a small problem with the exhaust system in our room, and without asking, they did offer a 2nd room for us (as their technician was already gone home) for the first night in case we cannot sleep and on the next day they directly fixed it. Furthermore we got a voucher for some drinks. That's how to manage such issues. Thumbs up! Furthermore the dinner was excellent.

I really enjoyed to stay in this hotel, but there is some room for improvement: 1) I expected the breakfast to be more varyed for this hotel category; 2) there could be more light in the room.
The hotel is beautiful! Its location is rather good and our room had a view to the front/beachside. There is a sauna free of charge and "alarm-service" in case northern lights appear in front of the hotel. The restaurant is highly recommended. It is not cheap, but the portions are much bigger than expected and the food is delicious!

It was overpriced. Breakfast wasn't great - a lot of the food was cold and the Dinner was average but overpriced. Staff were fine but not the friendliest and were a bit funny about the fact my wife handed in the second key 10 mins after me.
