The hotel offers compact, nicely decorated rooms without views, and the wet room bathrooms can be a bit damp. However, the location is exceptional near Thingvellier Park and Golden Circle attractions, albeit the lack of a proper swimming pool. The dining is enjoyable but not included in the high room rate.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms with a stunning view of the countryside were basic, but those facing the other direction were fine. The service left a lot to be desired with staff appearing inexperienced and unhelpful. The location had its ups and downs, being scenic but also next to an industrial plant. Dining was hit or miss, with limited options and some disappointing food choices.

The hotel offers very nice rooms with great views of the surreal landscape surrounding the property. However, service was efficient but not the most friendly or accommodating. The location is in a spectacular part of Iceland, but not that convenient for major attractions. The dining experience had a great selection of hot food, but was quite poor for breakfast options. The facilities were well equipped.

Even though the rooms are very small, the hotel's service and location make up for it. The dining options are a bit limited, but the facilities are well-maintained. Price might not match the overall experience.

The hotel's rooms were very comfortable and hip, but unfortunately too congested with no views. The cleanliness and comfort level were satisfactory. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, especially accommodating vegan diets, although some instances of lack of friendliness were noted. The location was a mix of disappointment and convenience, being close to Thingvellir National Park but lacking expected luxury elements. The dining experience was a mix of enjoyable moments and shortcomings, with high prices being a notable downside. Overall, a stay combining both positive and negative aspects.

The hotel offers clean and sleekly designed rooms, which were roomy enough for us, but the lack of exercise equipment was a letdown for a fitness enthusiast like me. The service was a mix of attentive gestures like offering Champagne on arrival and off-putting behavior such as being quite hostile at times. The location, though unusual with its proximity to a geothermal plant, provides easy access to the stunning Icelandic wild terrain. The dining experience, albeit not very fresh, was sufficient for a good breakfast, but with room for improvement. Overall, the facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.
