We stayed in one of the cute cottages. Very nice stay. Enjoyed dinner in the Hotel dining room. Breakfast was also very good. I’m so glad I changed my original plan to stay next to the canyon.

Rooms comfortable. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast tasty.
This is a super nice hotel. Really lovely staff, comfortable bed, easy check in. Really cute dog.
The hot tubs are nice, the view is great.
The breakfast was really nice. We also thought the lounge is really cozy and it was nice to be able to take a drink there and relax.
One of the nicest hotels of our trip, really great.
Excellent property with amazing views. Very good breakfast and there is a bar, as well. They have a hot tub, but we did not use it. Rooms are very small, but manageable. Parking is easy. We love everything about this property, but it’s a good 15 minute drive to the town of Akureyri, where the restaurants and shops are.

Our room was nothing like what was pictured on Expedia. No views from hot tub. I will say, breakfast was delicious.
The room was very clean, spacious and well lit with comfortable beds, two chairs and a long table with kettle and complimentary tea and coffee. Staff was very helpful and the hot tub most relaxing. Our complimentary breakfast was amazing for taste, variety and abundance!
We had a wonderful overnight stay here. The cabin was really lovely - cosy and warm, with all the facilities you could want. The evening meal was very good, and everyone working there was incredibly friendly and helpful - thanks so much to you all. It was great to meet the gorgeous dog too!
This was a nice and simple place to stay for 1 night. We did not get a cottage, but stayed in the hotel section. The rooms were bare, but good enough - clean and everything was working. The manager was really nice. The hot tubs were lovely, but the sauna was not working. The buffet was good and well worth the stay. It is only 5 minutes away from the town.
Clean and cosy rooms. Two hot tubs outside to soak in. Nice dining room. Dinner menu looked good but chef was on holiday when we were there so no dinner available. Lots of restaurants nearby so not an issue. Breakfast buffet was very good

We got a cabin room. Not the cleanest and there is a sulfur smell in the water. Location is nice.
