8/10 Very good

Overall, our stay was good and we enjoyed it. The place itself was nice and everything was comfortable. However, the breakfast could have been better. There was food available and it was alright, but for the price we paid, we were hoping for more variety and better options. The selection felt quite limited and there wasn’t much to choose from. With a bit more effort put into breakfast, this would have been a much better experience.

The breakfast selection was excellent and delicious! The front desk staff were very helpful and were always ready to answer any questions we had during our stay. I highly recommend Hotel Vellir. The rooms are quiet and comfortable, and the location is excellent. It offers easy access to the highway towards Reykjavik or to Keflavik airport, making everyday road trips a breeze.

Nice simple hotel. Great place to book for a couple of days after flying from States and before a cruise. Quiet and away from Reykjavík but not to far to access with a 15 minute drive.
