We spent 2 nights and booked 2 rooms. The hotel was stylish and the food was excellent. We had breakfast, dinner in the restaurant and took their packed lunches for our visits and hikes in the area. We enjoyed their sauna and hot tubs.

We had an excellent one night stay at this location near Diamond Beach. The hotel was clean, comfortable, modern and the staff were excellent from the front desk staff to the wait staff. Only regret is that we had just one night. Breakfast buffet was also outstanding! Highly recommend!

The hotel was beautiful, amazing location, the food and the breakfast were amazing. We had a room with the view over the parking lot and this was a bit sad. The bed was too soft.

Great overnight pit stop after our glacier hike! The hotel provided a complimentary drink voucher to use at the bar - perfect after a long day. The room was spacious, clean and well stocked (robe and slippers provided). Lots of free parking outside. Would stay again!

Gorgeous location, friendly and helpful staff, and we loved the outdoor hot tubs! The spa downstairs is lovely, and the breakfast was also very good. The one downside was in the bathroom it was an open shower with no lip or raised area, so the whole floor got wet. As downsides go it was minor. This is a great location for reaching Diamond Beach/Jökulsárlón.

The hotel was amazing overall—truly the life you deserve. The staff were incredibly nice, the property is beautiful, and the bed is very comfortable. The bathroom is spacious, and the spa being open late is a great bonus. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I wish I had stayed there one more day. This is the perfect hotel to end your South Iceland route.
