The location is unbeatable. Convenient to a lot of attractions. Friendly staff and breakfast is included. It’s an older hotel so the room does have a mild smell but otherwise it’s great

Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Fantastic room allocation and continental breakfast. Decor in room was fresh and clean. Food and service in restaurant was great. Scenic location with free parking. Please Note: Good Wi-Fi but due to it's remote location there is no national TV reception and you can only use the TV with a smart phone and/or with a subscription plan.

Staff were very helpful. We had dinner there once and two breakfasts. The food was very good. The weather did not cooperate. However, we traveled to the north side of the Snaefellsnes peninsula and had decent weather there. There is much to see in this area. Its location is very rural; thus, other restaurants, grocery stores, swimming pools, etc. are some distance away.

This property is in a great location at a crossroads of exploring the Snaefellsness Peninsula. The staff were so nice and also very helpful, particularly James in the restaurant. Breakfast was delicious and substantial. A couple of minor complaints were that the bathroom shower drain and extremely high shower curtain did not keep the bathroom floor dry. And our room was quite a distance from the parking.

Hotel staff who oriented us to our room was charming. The room was clean but quite hot with the sun of the season and the heated floors. Would have liked a fan. Breakfast was fresh and delicious. I liked the rainbow flag and show of support to gay couples.
