A very nice lux cabin with access to hot tub. Very considerate front desk people who accomodate our request by going out of the way (I forgot the lady name from the morning while checking out). Awesome spread if breakfast to meet vegetarian dietary needs. Closer to Borgarnes where you could get additional food options.

had a great experience at Hotel Hamar. From the moment I arrived, the service was excellent. Ines at the front desk was especially friendly and welcoming, making check-in easy and helping create a positive first impression. The restaurant staff were also very friendly and attentive, and the breakfast was good with a nice variety of options. One of the highlights of my stay was the hot tub, which offered beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. It was the perfect place to relax and enjoy the scenery. Overall, this was a wonderful stay with great service, comfortable accommodations, and beautiful surroundings. I would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Ended up staying here twice on our trip since we were passing that way again and needed a place to stay. This isn't the most amazing hotel you'll ever stay in, but it's solid. Comfortable beds, nice staff, decent food, and not a bad price. Sure the interiors are a bit dated, but it's not bad by any stretch. It's a solid option for a place to stay in the area!
