Comfy and close to attractions

This is such a beautiful hotel perched high on the hills with a fantastic view of Mývatn lake below. The hotel is exquisite and luxurious. The rooms were comfy and spacious. There is a restaurant and good selections for a paid breakfast. It's close to the attractions. Get there early as parking is limited.

Very crowded at check in. Got to room and it was over 90 degrees in room. Tiny window with no air flow and no air conditioning. Small fan in room circulated the hot air. Asked for a different room, a second fan, or an extension cord to put fan in window - was told “no”. Unusually warm in Iceland (72 degrees F) was explanation. Also safe and one light didn’t work, but that was the least of our problems. This was most expensive hotel of our ten day Iceland adventure ($460USD) and worst night sleep, simply laying on top of bed uncovered without sheets. Miserable. Got up early and left

This hotel seems to be a bit unorganized. We had one breakfast there and it was a disaster. There was not enough dishes, guests were cutting loaf of bread with bare hands, eggs were dry, there is no freshly cooked food in the breakfast buffet. It’s definitely of substandard compared to the Fosshotel at glacier lagoon. Will not recommend.
