Hotel Northern Light Inn
Nordurljósavegur 1, 240 Grindavík, Iceland – Great location - show map
The Northern Lights Hotel is located about 30 minutes from the KEF Keflavik Airport right next to the famous Blue Lagoon. We arrived to the hotel quite early around 8:30 a.m., to stow our luggage with the management; however, to our surprise, the pleasant manager on duty (First name begins with an "H") had a room available and checked us into our room. The rooms were clean and the tea/refreshment area was a nice place to gather late at night. Breakfast was delicious as well. We'd stay at the Norther Lights again. Everyone on location was helpful.
United States of AmericaFredrick Einarsson went to great lengths to get us a room early, understanding our all night flight from the US.
United States of AmericaThe staff was incredibly friendly and we absolutely loved the Honesty Bar area with the cozy fireplace. The included breakfast was an impressive spread of delicious food and our meal at Max's Restaurant was one of the best we had during our stay in Iceland. We had a three person room with plenty of space and even little chocolates.
United States of AmericaWe got upgraded into the Deluxe suite and really felt spoilt- our last night in Iceland and we were treated so well. And we liked the social areas- for a group of friends this was ideal.
United KingdomIt was close to the Blue Lagoon and the airport. It was clean and well managed. The staff were very helpful.
GreeceConvenient to airport. Relaxing after our trip around Iceland. Staff was very helpful
United States of AmericaGreat Location, view would have been better if not of the Geothermal Plant and steam off of it, was not expecting that. But, the MAX restaurant was amazing and staff was very friendly and the room was very comfortable. Would definitely stay again or recommend. During our visit it was raining so we did not see any Northern lights. But many do here.
United States of AmericaLocation to the Blue Lagoon. Only about a mile from the hotel. Also the beds were very comfortable.
United States of AmericaWaffles with whipped cream and jam every day at 4PM and coffee/tea all day in a large, comfy common “living room.”
United States of AmericaLoved this place! It feels like the spa that it is near (Blue Lagoon). It's so close you could walk there but they have a free shuttle. You can also go on some nice short walks in the area through the lava fields and get up close with this natural odditiy. There is a free workout facility and Max's Restaurant is first rate! They have very creative food. Breakfast is also available starting at 4:30am for early flyers. I think this would be a great place to stay to see the Northern Lights because there is no light pollution in the area. I plan to return as a treat at either the beginning or end of my next Icelandic adventure!
