We had money stolen out of our locked suitcase, substituted for another currency so we only realised when we got home . Be careful with this property, terrible.

“Fair, but dissapointing that when we were snowed in or restricted by the weather, no TV.”
Staff were fantastic and as helpful as I would expect for a venue of this price.

“Lovely Hotel”
The style of the hotel is warm and welcoming once inside. Like many buildings in Iceland they look nothing special from the outside. You must step over the threshold to explore. The bedroom was comfortable well appointed and had tea/coffee making facilities. Comfy beds. Batheoom & toiletries provided, hand or body cream woukd have been perfect in tje gold hsrsh weather of March. Communal areas comfy sofas, a library, bar area. Great location to walk into town. Free parking too
