A Very Nice Stay

Best hotel in the area in my opinion. Definitely would recommend if you're travelling through. Breakfast was nice and the evening restaurant food was very impressive. Only issue i found was the price tag on using the sauna, very expensive, hence why i didnt use it.

Beautiful boutique hotel in a stunning location! The service provided by the team was above and beyond. So grateful for the “wake up call” service when the Northern Lights were present as this was a bucket list experience for me. Excellent area to stay for exploring the waterfalls, exploring Vik and going on a glacier excursion. I highly recommend and thank you to Umi for a dreamy stay!

Quite a disappointing experience given the stellar reviews. We were very excited to visit. When we got there, we were given a twin bed room (vs double) without asking which really ruined the experience for us on the first night. While they fixed this quickly day 2, the biggest disappointment was that we signed up for a wake up call to see the northern lights and they didn’t knock on our door. We travelled thousands of kms to come see it and while they appeared that night (as confirmed by the reception) they missed knocking on our door. If they didn’t offer that service we would have been alert on our own but we depended on the hotel and was disappointed by the service.
