I was most pleasantly surprised by this hotel. We stayed here the night before an early flight, and walked to and from the terminal in a crazy burst of wind. The hotel was a welcome haven in the wild weather. Once there, we enjoyed the cozy room, a sweet happy hour, and satisfying meal. We were fortunately that the restaurant was not over run. We had a chicken burger and veggie burger with fries and found them both quite good. After a quick night's sleep, we were off!

We had a late flight into Keflavik, so staying at this hotel was super convenient. It's walkable from the terminal, and this allowed us to pick up our rental car the next day to save some money. The beds were not that comfortable, and we were given one pillow each. No washcloths. The room was quite big. Our bathroom had a walk-in shower with tiled floor that we found challenging, but the water was warm! Breakfast is not complimentary. The food selection for breakfast was good. This hotel was very much worth the stay.
