Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is a lovely harbor located in the north fjord, offering a comfy stay with vintage furniture and attentive service. While the dining may not be the best value for money, the location is perfect for exploring the town.
The service was very nice, providing useful local information and even a cell phone number for emergencies. The location is fantastic, close to local bakeries and restaurants. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel, despite a few minor drawbacks. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, perfect for our group of four, although the translucent bathroom wall was a bit disconcerting. The service was top-notch, with informative staff and great renovations throughout the property. The location, while lovely in the north fjord, could feel a bit intrusive in the busy restaurant area. The dining experience in the local bakery was a highlight, offering the best breakfast I've had in Iceland.
The hotel has wonderfully odd but amazing furnitures in the rooms, which are cleaned, quiet, and comfortable, decorated with cute elements. The service, highlighted by a Moroccan chef, goes a longer way than the rooms for me, being very friendly in a hands-off kind of way. The location by the lovely harbor in the north fjord is great for easy walking to restaurants and shops. The dining experience was great, though a bit too expensive for what is offered.
The hotel had spacious and comfortable rooms, although the bathroom setup was a bit unusual. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff offering an array of amenities. The location, while central, could get noisy during the evenings. The dining experience fell short in terms of value and satisfaction.
