to get started.

The location was great with good trail running / hiking from right outside the hotel, the staff were friendly and helpful and the restaurant food was delicious. The breakfast buffet was a fantastic spread.

Ali, Australia

An absolutely superb hotel! We loved the staff, restaurant, rooms, etc.

David, United States of America

It is good to have a transfer service for airport and downtown, search it on the ION website, it might save your money if you don't drive like me.

Yun, China

Amazing hotel, such an unusual location. Great hiking right from the hotel, beautiful views. We loved the northern lights bar.

Simone, United States of America

Staffs are very nice and helpful. Two ladies at the reception helped us out when we had trouble with the car. The northern light bar got floor to ceiling window offering a perfect view. Too bad we didn't get to use the pool as it was too cold.

Preechaya, Thailand

Very good service. High End hotel in quite location.

Robert, United States of America

First impression, the hotel smelled divine! The place was gorgeous. The food was delicious and the staff incredibly courteous. While eating our superb dinner, waiter informed the guests the northern lights were visible which led to amazing views and photographs!

Michelle, United States of America

The Ion Hotel is in a great location very close to the main National Park in Iceland. It was easy to find. The rooms are very nice with great views of the surreal landscape surrounding the hotel. Even the geothermal power plant close to the hotel looks otherworldly and fits in the landscape. The food at dinner and breakfast was excellent. The hotel's giant outdoor hot tub was amazing: So relaxing to sit in there while enjoying the views.

Fabrice, United States of America

Staff and service were exceptional. Location was beautiful and the rooms were very comfortable and cozy. Slept very well!

Rebecca, United States of America

Location and proximity to popular touristy spots were our primary reasons for staying here. The fact that it was a "designer" hotel was a disappointing second reason. The place photographs well, but doesn't live up to the hype, and ultimately falls well short of a serious luxury hotel.

“A mediocre hotel, pretending to be a "Boutique Hotel"”

- • Double or Twin Room

I had high expectations of the place, as SPG platinum member, but the hotel is just a mediocre hotel, which doesn't provide anything, except a very small room in the ground floor, with no view.
The food in the restaurant was amazing.

The entire hotel smells of sulfur at all times. The hotel overlooks a power plant. Sry unfriendly staff. WiFi does not work well for guests. The spa was disappointing and the men’s locker room has been broken for months and still not fixed, so the changing room is currently unisex. “Pool” is not a pool but instead a long hot tub.
The dinner was very good.

“Fantastic restaurant and good location but room facilities and services could be improved”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 1 night
The room was below expectations for the price paid - one of our bedside lights didn't work, there was no fan in the bathroom (or it wasn't working) so it became ridiculously hot really quickly and the shower didn't drain at all well. There was tea and coffee making facilities but no milk provided. The advertised gym comprised only two elliptical machines and an incomplete set of dumb bells, with one of the elliptical machines not working. There was also no fan or airflow so really hot. We still enjoyed the outdoor hot pool and overall experience, but felt it wasn't good value for money overall as it was by far our priciest night of a very expensive week in Iceland, but definitely not the best accommodation of our trip.
The location was great with good trail running / hiking from right outside the hotel, the staff were friendly and helpful and the restaurant food was delicious. The breakfast buffet was a fantastic spread.

Lack of breakfast option. Fruits were not peeled off Refill service was slow
Property is located in national park which makes it a perfect location to come and experience northern lights. I think not a great place for summer time and breakfast is below average as compared to other places I stayed during my trip . I think property is really overvalued for the services they have

Spa was in need of repair and was not available to us on the morning of our departure do to routine cleaning. I wish the hotel published hours of operation as we planned to use the facilities the morning of our departure. If we had known, we would have stayed elsewhere. Also, all outdoor planters had dead plants in them... not appealing for a so called "high end" spa.
Amazing dinner!!!

The room was a little too compact although thoughtfully arranged. The hotel is situated in close proximity to the geothermal power plant - this, of course, is great since it provides the hotel with a excellent source of green energy.
The hotel totally meet our expectations. Really friendly staff in an excellent location. Plenty of well marked walking trails and an excellent base to explore the Northern section (where most of the sites are) of the Golden Circle.
