    I loved this place.

    I loved this place. It was perfect location for different places to visit such as Geyster, Pingvilllar (National Park), etc. The accommodation was cosy and lovely. The owners were friendly, helpful and thoughtful; always informed me and my friends about the weather and issues with the hire car. We loved the scenery of the lake especially visiting the hot geothermal bath nearly every night. the last night before we returned to the city, we saw Northern Lights! that was the highlight of the short break. We would go back and stay there again. Loved it.

    We chose it as a night stop between golden circle and Vik; village has thermal baths but we had already had thermal spa at blue lagoon, so we didn’t try these baths; There are at least three places for dinner :) The village is not worth for a longer stay or you can find a more attractive place ;)

    Extremely quiet place.. not much to do.

    Extremely quiet place.. not much to do. If you want a quiet place to recharge and do nothing, this is your place. We stayed 2 nights which is maybe too much for this little spot. Enjoyed onion ring burgers at Goodburger!

    My guesthouse was comfortable and pleasant.

    My guesthouse was comfortable and pleasant. I wished I had more time to enjoy the Fortuna. My hike at 10pm was delightful. I cannot recall ever smelling fresher air. The lupines, birches and pines were lovely. It was easy to get to all of the sites on the Golden Circle from there. Would gladly go back.

    The hotel is beautifully located on top of the hill side overlooking the lake below and the wonderful nature. The hotel has small but comfortable rooms and we stayed in a room that shared a bathroom in the hall. It is all very clean and the house is decorated in an old vintage style which goes well with its history. Very comfortable beds. We did not try the restaurant or the breakfast but enjoyed a drink in their bar.

    Nice to have breakfast provided in the morning with a cute little shop to peruse. Bedrooms/bathrooms were overall comfortable and clean. Location was awesome coming from Reykjavik and spending the day at Thingvellir National Park. Cute little town with an awesome hot spring, Laugarvatn Fontana, and delicious dinner food at the hostel down the street.

    This cottage is in the golden circle area, very close to Fontana thermal spa. It’s out in a field amongst horses and farmland. We enjoyed two rooms, private bath, and a kitchen. The deck with pastoral views was lovely. What’s not to love? WiFi connection was great.

    Found this farm hotel while traveling. It was casual, clean, cozy place. Room was tight 3 twins, but that was all we needed for the one night. Location was near to several Golden Circle attractions. We will consider a return should we be in the area again.

    We liked the beautiful views, being near nature and close to places we wanted to visit in the Golden Circle. It was very windy some days and it was really amazing to experience the powerful Icelandic winds and see the sky clear for the stars at night!

    I stayed one night on my journey around the Golden Circle. it’s walking distance to the Laugvartan Fontana hot springs and numerous restaurants. My room was clean, check in easy. And the place was affordable in a notoriously expensive country.

    We had a super comfortable private room for our family of four. The staff was polite, the food was way beyond our expectations (possibly some of the best lamb and pizza we’ve ever had). Nice short walk to the Fontana hot springs as well.

    This is a unique experience to stay at this farmhotel run by a family. It was incredibly cozy and charming, dinner and breakfast were great, loved looking over the cows. The floors are heated which I love. The ice cream is amazing!!

    The location is very close to Laugarvatn Fontana Spa (3 mins walking distance). The room is very spacious and all the amenities were available. The mudroom to ensure the cleanliness of the apartment. Self check-in was very swift.

    Beautiful cottage with stunning view from the terrace. Also the surrounding area is worth it, especially Laugarvatn Fontana and Þingvellir. It would be nice to come back someday.

    Given how remote most of Iceland is, this turned out to be quite a convenient spot - just a few minutes from Laugarvatn.
