The hotel is very nice, the water comes directly from the thermal water of the Myvatn area. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast was good.

Alejandro Italy

Right across the street from the lake, great lamb chops, attentive staff

Joann United States of America

Nice room in a quiet location. Hotel has an elevator. My bathroom had heated flooring and towel racks. The staff was very helpful with directions.

Vicki United States of America

Beautiful place to stay, close to spring pools. Awesome staff, that informed us aout upcoming Northern Lights - we had a chance to made a few pics! Delicoius breakfast and dinner options. Room was big and comfy. You have option to use sauna as well.

Karol Poland

Food and breakfast were very good. They have a cafe and gas pump outside. Right next to the craters and the lake

Kp United States of America

Great location, friendly staff, clean and comfortable.

Jamie United States of America

Very nice location, next to Lake Myvatn and a series of walking paths around it. The room was big and newly furnished, the bed was comfortable with nice sheets. The breakfast was really good, with lots of options. There’s a nice ice cream place next to the hotel that I recommend, they have local homemade ice cream.

Mihaela United States of America

Great hotel, friendly staff, very large rooms, food was awesome (mainly the dinner buffet), cool pool table, and once again - great staff.

Boaz Israel

Great location on the south shore of Lake Mývatn. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and spacious - even the en suite bathroom is fairly large. The property is convenient to all the major sights in north Iceland; it's close to a major road, but set back far enough that traffic noise is not a problem. The breakfast buffet is the best in the area, with a wide choice of foods and plenty to go around.

Christopher Iceland

Room was very spacious, great breakfast and friendly staff.
