United States of AmericaNorthern lights spectacular. Food excellent. Location very good for scenic southeastern iceland.
United States of AmericaClean and the staff were exceptional and the food. I don’t like fish and presto but I tried the cod dish and it was divine!! At check out, we were late with breakfast with the jet lag and they were able to whip up a tray with crossaints, bacon, yogurt, ham and cheese and hash browns to serve us. Thank you:)
United States of AmericaThe view as well as the amenities made the stay phenomenal.
United States of AmericaThe staff was exceptional. One of our activities got canceled and the front desk made sure we had a day filled with fun activities. The property is nice and remote but right off the main road making for wonderful views but easy to get to things.
United States of AmericaHotel Ranga exceeded our expectations. Everyone was amazing from the people at the front desk who helped us plan our days and navigate the weather to the dinning room staff. The complimentary breakfast was hearty and yummy and dinner was exceptional. Fridrik Palsson, the owner is charming and has created a wonderful hotel to use as base camp while exploring Iceland.
United States of AmericaThe staff is really friendly and helpful. The location is in the middle of nowhere, a plus point for the northern lights. Clean and comfortable. The floor heating is really nice.
GermanyFood was excellent, location for viewing northern lights excellent (although we didn't get to see them due to cloud cover).
United States of AmericaIt felt like home! The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The views can't be beat! The food was delicious. I highly recommend Hotel Ranga!
United States of Americawonderful hotel. The staff was incredible and extremely helpful. The food in the restaurant was the best I had on my trip. Everyone must try the wild mushroom soup! The towels were thick and fluffy and so cozy! The bed could have been a little bit more luxe given that it was a four-star hotel, but it was still very comfortable. I loved the wooden lodge theme. Would definitely stay here 100 times again.
