"Unfortunately the sauna was broken for my one night stay. No one refilled the water in the spa area for hours, which was disappointing. Aside from these issues, we enjoyed our stay. Very intimate location behind a church and small. Neighborhood. Quiet."

"Lovely room, with large bathroom with robes and slippers provided. Continental breakfast provided with some hot food ie scrambled eggs, bacon and sausages. Staff were very helpful, allowed to check in slightly earlier out out slightly later.
We were disappointed with the hot pools not quite what we had expected. Saying that the sauna by them was excellent. Bring a towel to sit on a seating gets hot."

"The cabin was a remote base to explore the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. It was clean and comfortable for our family of 4 including 2 teenage boys. The geothermal hot tub was a fun treat too. The hike to Eldborg Crater was a nice adventure with great views from the (steep) summit."

"This place was so lovely! The little apartment was very clean and functional. It was beautifully decorated and had an array of amenities. The owner was very welcoming and helpful. It was definitely very peaceful and quiet. Although I only stayed one night, I thoroughly enjoyed all it had to offer."

"At Hotel A we were greeted by a very friendly and helpful employee. He gave us a map and pointed out all of the things to do in the area. The room was a great size, very clean and had a lovely view. No TV in the room, but there was one in the community lounge area. This place had a more rustic, lodge-type feel. The dinner menu was very limited, but there were not many options in the immediate area. Breakfast was included and it was decent, but not the best that we have had. This location worked well for our Ring Road tour, but not much farther along the route was Borgarnes which is a larger town which might have had more options for dining and accommodations. But overall, this was a decent stop and quite close to some interesting sights like lava cave tours, Hraunfossar and Barnafoss waterfalls, and Deildartunguhver."
"The staff were very nice, and the room was basic but comfortable. The shared bathroom was a good size, and the kitchen was great, it had everything you need. Street parking was limited but I found a spot."

"Nice well maintained quiet cabin. Campground has everything you need including hiking trails, beautiful waterfall and a restaurant on the grounds. Would definitely return and stay longer next time."
"I really enjoyed my stay! The service was excellent, the hot tub was beautiful, and the food was delicious. The included breakfast was also fantastic. I highly recommend this hotel!"
"amazing hotel, great location and very good facilities overall. only one minor complaint is that expresso coffee and cappuccino wasn’t included in the 30$ breakfast. we paid extra for that. the hot tub and sauna were really good."
"An absolute gem. A lovingly restored building and the guest rooms were beautiful with a rural outlook. A communal kitchen was really handy with full oven, cooktop, microwave and kettle. A short drive from Borganes which has a good supermarket and bakery. Tea and coffee provided as well as generous provisions to make your own breakfast.
Really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. Anna the host was really nice and added to the positive experience."
