Everything was wonderful at the hotel and spa. Unfortunately there was a family there that had a small child and the child came to our table several times at dinner with the nanny chasing after him. We also had breakfast with the same family - so again, not super relaxing.

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel and spa, really well presented building and the rooms were clean, well equipped and quiet. The breakfast was excellent. The staff were very attentive and polite. OK it's a little pricey but well worth the experience overall. The only negative for me was from the Lava restaurant where I had probably the worst steak ever especially given it's hefty price tag.

This was the nicest hotel I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. It was beautiful and so nicely kept. The staff was amazing. The Blue Lagoon at The Retreat was very private and quiet. Truly amazing trip. The Retreat was $$$, but worth every penny.

Stanley, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

One of the most amazing hotels in the world, hewn out of a 600-year-old lava field and connecting with the Blue Lagoon. This is not only Iceland’s number 1 hotel, but totally world-class. Stylish, fantastic service, fluent English by ALL staff, super-modern rooms (lighting can be a bit confusing), keyless entry to room via wrist device, extraordinary spa, good food - what more can one ask? Our only complaint: service in the restaurants is s.l.o.w.

6/10 Good

We were told all the food/wine/coffee/drinks on the fridge and cabinet were complimentary and free but we were charged for the 2 beers we took from the same fridge where all the drinks are kept. Its a lie! Inaccurate information considering how incredibly expensive to stay in this particular hotel. It is not worth to stay for four nights as we spent most of our days outdoor.
Edna, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

From the moment you enter, your stress dissipates as you see the blue silica waters and everyone walking around in spa robes. Your host provides you with a personalized check-in and itinerary review along with a tour of the retreat and spa. It is critically important that you reach out DIRECTLY to the retreat to book activities, meals and spas services as they don’t seem to get Expedia messages. Also, check-in is 4pm or after or there is an early fee of $500 (the sister limited hotel w/private lagoon does not charge for an early check-in). Check-out is at 11am or a fee applies. I would recommend 2 nights to enjoy in full. This retreat has a private lagoon that you can enjoy after hours all well. There is a meditation room with a ceiling waterfall and fireplace room that is so calming along with the spa fully body ritual. I would highly recommend the floating massages. A once in a lifetime experience. After you check-in you just need a bathing suit along w/robes and spa shoes they provide for the rest of your stay. A must is a room with the lagoon view as you will have seen plenty of lava fields. The shower in the room is one of the best ever. The stocked mini refrigerator is a nice touch and it is restocked with turn down service. The bed needs to be firmer with softer sheets. The breakfast was standard but eggs came out cold. The spa has nice food options for lunch. Moss is a safe and pricey Michelin star restaurant, enjoyed Ox and Dill way more.
