to get started.

The location was very nice. About 10 minutes from Vik. Would have been PERFECT for seeing the Northern Lights if it hadn't been cloudy! Breakfast was delicious, as well as included. Authentic Icelandic sweaters are also for sale at reception that the staff have knitted.

The welcoming was exceptionally warm and inviting. Staff were accommodating and eager to please. The room was fantastic and location of hotel perfect for what we were interested in seeing. The dining, public area was very nice and we appreciated the Jura espresso machine. Staff kindly dried our soaking hiking clothes and served a wonderful breakfast. Had it not been for the staff recommendation, my grandson and I would never have seen the last hundreds of migrating puffins. Loved everything about Volcano.

We absolutely loved the owners and their hotel, which used to be a local school. very comfortable and large room, nice view on the ocean, great breakfast and super service! We took the excursion organised by Johann the owner: Ice Cave discovery - the experience was surreal and so well organized. Johann is a great storyteller and knows his country so well!

Loved the big room, the comfortable bed, loved the breakfast room with reading materials and coffee. Felt very cozy and homey. Loved the big windows that looked out over the ocean. Love the location, it was very convenient to a lot of the sites that are popular in the south

Small family run hotel in the middle of sheep fields with an amazing view toward the ocean from the breakfast room. In the middle of the roads leading to Dyrhólaey (spectacular) and the black beach Reynisfjara. Vik is a quick 10 minute drive with several small restaurants a good grocery store and gas stations. Very nice breakfast for such a small hotel.

We were allocated a large, beautiful room, with a view looking out towards the sea. The bed was the biggest and best I’ve ever slept on and the pillows were comfortable. The bathroom was wonderful. Beautifully appointed with space for all our things, including drawers beneath the wash hand basin. What a bonus they were. Breakfast was simple, fresh good and of the highest quality. We were so very comfortable here, loving the location and the hotel. It was perfect.

Nothing but a little bit far from downtown.
Nice breakfast buffet which served so often that you never had dried scrambled egg or tomato. And the view from the sea was very special!

This is a boutique hotel conveniently located along Ring Road. Our room was spacious and the heating made it very comfortable, especially after a long day out in the rain and wind. Bathroom was very clean. Breakfast was good. Host was lovely.
