What's nearby

  • Iceland is a magical place. I've never seen so many rainbows in such a short time. Single or double, every day we had a show!  The glacier near Höfn is quite grandiose, but this rainbow with dark skies and great sun kinda stole the show!

We stayed one night with four adults in a room with a private bathroom. Bathroom and shower were very nice. The room was a bit tight with luggage but we were able to make it work. The kitchen facilities were good with lots of seating for eating a meal. Would definitely recommend and would stay again.

I had a private room with my own washroom. It was lovely and clean. The bathroom was spacious and the shower had plenty of hot water (that was desperately needed after all of the hiking and driving that day). The kitchen had everything needed to make food and the lady at reception was really nice. I would stay here again.

We had a great time and fully enjoyed the HUGE kitchen assortment of pots and pans and utensils. The bathrooms are shiny new and impeccable conditions. We stayed in a basement room with 6 beds and the air got a bit stuffy by the morning, but we kept the window a bit open to freshen up. We enjoyed the free mini golf on the water nearby, the public pool and the few restaurants in town to try langoustine. We definitely recommend it.
