Restaurant was great - the service was wonderful. We had dinner and the included breakfast. We got in much later than expected but would have liked to try the hot tubs. The bed was very comfortable.
United States of AmericaOur stay was fabulous - the meals (dinner and breakfast) were wonderful - best breakfast we had on our week-long trip. We got the wake-up call for the aurora (faint but visible), though I wish they had turned out the parking lot lights to see it better. The location is great - isolated but an easy stop between Golden Circle and southern coast. Great staff as well, and we appreciated the free drink with our check-in!
United States of AmericaReally excellent restaurant. Nice amenities and a few seating spaces. Downstairs bar next to the restaurant and another upstairs that we didn’t go to.
United States of AmericaWe loved the staff, service, food, facilities and location. We even got to see the northern lights from there!
United States of AmericaEverything about the Ranga was excellent. The rooms are beautiful-either looking toward the north for a glimpse of the Northern Lights or to the south toward the nearby Ranga river. The included breakfast is amazing and the service was outstanding. A true luxury experience from the restaurant, to the hot tubs, to the common areas with pool table and great seating areas. The best thing about the Ranga is that owner Fridrik Pallson personally greets every guest and makes you feel like a valued and welcome guest at his hotel.
United States of AmericaOutstanding breakfast with buffet plus you could order. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable.
United States of AmericaHot tubs & restaurant were amazing! Beds were very comfortable! The ATV tour is a MUST!
United States of AmericaThe photos online don't do it justice. It is such an unusual place. Loved everything about it. Worth the price. Breakfast was the best we had in Iceland. Ate at restaurant, everything delicious. The Cod was stellar.
United States of AmericaBeautiful hotel. Great breakfast buffet and delicious dinner meals. Bar was very well stocked. Great selection of scotch and wine.
United States of AmericaElegant, low key, quality bedding, great food and terrific location. It’s gotta be one of, if not the best hotel in Iceland.
