The food was amazing. They must have a great chef. The room was warm - would have liked to be able to cook it down but only one small window. The hot tubs were fun especially in the 40 m/hr winds one night!

Hotel common areas are nice enough— couple of large hot tubs outside, a sauna, tiny gym and very nice bar lounge. The included breakfast is good. The room we had was very small and basic for $500 per night. Food and drink expensive even by Iceland standards. The hotel is not super close to anything (about 15 miles or so to glacier lagoon for example). I expected more and usually get it for these prices even in Iceland.
