There is parking in their garage for a fee but honestly the street parking around the area is really easy and convenient. The hotel itself was excellent location, easy access to the routes necessary to explore ring road and the golden circle. Sauna access was super and included breakfast was a win.

Super cool design and the restaurants were very good. The beds were amazingly comfortable and the shower water was powerful and hot! Nice walk out to a veranda and ability to open window and doors set the room up for a personal experience.
