Lakefront calm with Reykjavik within reach

Hotel Kriunes trades downtown noise for a small inlet on Lake Elliðavatn, with wide water views stretching to distant mountains. Interiors keep things warm and rooted in local culture, while an unexpected hacienda-style entrance sets a playful first note. When the city calls, downtown Reykjavik is an easy 15 to 20 minute drive away.
