    spacious rooms
    hot buffet breakfast

    fantastic access to breathtaking landmarks and stunning park views

    I really enjoyed the spacious rooms with lovely rural views and the hot buffet breakfast that gave me the energy I needed for my city strolls to nearby attractions, like Skutustaoagigar, which is just under 3 km away and perfect for some leisurely hikes along the serene landscapes.

    limited menu
    room ventilation

    The restaurant's limited dinner menu needs more variety and later hours!!! Room ventilation struggles lead to stuffiness, and the absence of personal towels like washcloths falls below standard expectations!!!

    modern hotel
    comfortable rooms
    annoying midges
    unwelcoming staff

    The hotel is beautifully modern with comfortable rooms that include nice amenities, but the midges can be a serious annoyance. Despite enjoying a delicious dinner at the restaurant, a little empathy from the front desk staff would have gone a long way towards improving the experience overall.

    Comfortable Stay with Stunning Views

    Enjoyed our family stay in a lake-facing room. The view was breathtaking, especially at sunset. Quick service resolved our late check-in issue, which was a relief.

    attentive staff
    comfortable beds
    outdated ambiance

    great views but some minor issues

    The staff were unusually attentive and eager to help. I also appreciated the comfortable beds which made for a restful night.

    The quick check-in experience was nice though the overall ambiance could use some updates.

    spectacular views
    limited dining options

    Gorgeous view with cozy comfort

    Waking up to spectacular views of the lake was pure magic! Each sunrise was a picture-perfect moment. The big window in our room let in bright natural light, making everything feel inviting.

    Though it felt isolated, the limited dining options meant we had to plan meals carefully. The only restaurant on-site had long waiting times during dinner.

    helpful staff
    beautiful view
    cozy atmosphere
    lack of privacy

    Helpful staff save the day!

    Had a fun stay with a super nice staff! We got stuck in snow while checking out and Fionn from the front desk literally came to the rescue. The view from our room was sweet too. Just wish they had better curtains for privacy since we faced the parking lot. But overall, nice place with good vibes!
