“This hotel makes an ideal base for exploring the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon and Skaftafell National Park. I noted that the architectural design echoes the glaciers nearby, and the on-site dining aims for a gourmet experience, though some may find simpler fare more satisfying. The inclusive hot tub and sauna access tips the scale toward relaxation after a day of adventuring.”

the staff offered a northern light wake-up call, a really nice touch. restaurant staff proved very cute and the food, delicious. the room included modern design, ample space, and great cleanliness.
i found the northern light wake-up call was not always reliable. this could be improved with a more consistent system. i did miss it a bit.

The restaurant provided perhaps the best meal I had on my entire trip. Breakfast offered plenty of variety. The staff at the front desk were helpful upon my arrival.
The rooms were crazy hot. Only a small window could open, which proved inadequate. I feel the room should have had better ventilation.

our ocean view double room offered fine views. i loved the spacious layout with two separate sinks in the bathroom. rainfall shower was particularly refreshing after a day of exploration. the hotel provides free parking, a definite plus.
The hallways could benefit from additional soundproofing. Noises from other guests were sometimes noticeable.

the hotel provides easy access to diamond beach and the glacier, important factors in my decision. the area is dark enough that i saw a sky full of stars. it.
