We loved everything about the Umi hotel. During our trip to Iceland we stayed in 10 different hotels while traveling around the island. The Umi hotel far exceeded our expectations and was far superior to the others hotels we stayed in. The hotel is ideally located for viewing the Northern Lights, offering an exceptional setting with minimal light pollution, which enhances the chances of seeing the aurora. After a long day of hiking and touring Iceland’s breathtaking countryside, the hotel provides all the comforts you could ask for. Rooms are spacious and luxurious, designed to make you feel at home while you unwind. The robes provided were soft and cozy combined with the luxury bath products gave us a spa feeling. The staff were friendly, professional, and very attentive. The hotel’s restaurant was fabulous, offering a breakfast buffet with a wide variety of options, sure to satisfy every palate. Whether you’re looking for Icelandic specialties or international cuisine, the buffet has something for everyone. Dinner was perfection, with expertly prepared dishes that showcased local ingredients. From fresh seafood to farm-to-table offerings, each meal was a highlight of the stay.

    Iceland is a very expensive place to travel and this guest house was average price for Iceland but the quality of the rooms were low average. Our room had such a bad slope on it we had to sleep at the other end of the bed with our heads above our feet. The bathroom had a toilet in the middle of the room, you had to walk around it to get to the shower and even though the room came with breakfast included it was very poor quality.

    Great place in south of Iceland. The town of "flowers" is a good name for this place, as it is the warmest place in Iceland, where they grow flowers and enjoy life. It has the best swimming pool of the whole country, with an amazing "steam room" that is heated with steam straight from the vulcanic core of our planet.

    I am sure there will be more activity and beautiful place to see in a nice day or summer. We are luck to get good temp in our trip (most day above the freeze and one day reached about 10C). We are not luck since there is no sun in all the trip except when we fly back to US. The mountain and beach are great even with cloud and frog.
