8/10 Very good

Cozy Stay Despite the Age

The hotel is a bit dated, but overall it’s a cozy place to stay — especially given the great location right by Lake Mývatn. Don’t expect warm smiles at the reception; the front desk staff were rather expressionless. That said, the restaurant and bar staff were more pleasant and helpful. If you’re traveling around Iceland, it’s best not to expect typical hotel service as you’d find elsewhere. Still, this place was comfortable enough for a short stay and provided the basics I needed.

10/10 Exceptional

This was such a cute stay during our trip! Very clean and the staff was pleasant, check in and out was very easy. Definitely had the best breakfast spread out of all the hotels we stayed in during our trip. The view of the lake and craters from the window was amazing, and the horses next door and local doggos are very friendly. I’d stay here again!
