This property was just a quick layover for me and my family. We checked in late, around 10:30 pm and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We also checked out really early at 6:20am and the staff on the phone was excellent also!

Really nice family room. Could be better sound proofing though as we could hear nearby doors closing all night. The staff at the restaurant could be more attentive, never checked how our meal was and took literally forever to get our bill. Overall, pretty nice place to stay.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The alarm went on at midnight for no reason. It wake me up. Phone in the room was not working. No staff in the front desk for the fire drill instruction. Everyone stood in the lobby and feeling anxious. We didn't know who to call since we didn't have the emergency phone number of Iceland. In fact, the bed fitted sheet was worn-out and made me itching all night long. Additionally, there was no heat in the room. This is the most expensive room who changed almost $400 per night making me had a terrible experience on this trip.

Hotel was fantastic, friendly staff, excellent breakfast, rooms are nice and big. However there was a disconnect between the hotel and Expedia, not sure whose fault it was: we are a family of 4 with 2 teenagers over 12, when booking the hotel, the only option we had was to book 2 rooms. However upon check in, the hotel put us in a family room, which had a main room with king bed and an adjoining room with a single over double bunk bed, it would have been the perfect size for our family. Instead we paid for 2 family rooms, complete waste of money! I want an explanation from either the hotel or Expedia and expect nothing but a full refund for the extra family room. Other than this issue, everything was perfect. The hotel is out of the way, not much dining options around 30 km radius, you’ll need a car to get around.

Great location and amenities
For wanting to see the lava tube and the falls, this location was perfect for us. It all worked out well from a comfy bed to a nice breakfast. Dinner was also excellent. The only downside I can think of is that the rooms seemed a bit smaller than we experience at the other Fosshotel. Other than that, I highly recommend it.

Staff was extremely friendly and competent. Definitely eat the breakfast buffet, beyond amazing, and nothing like breakfast buffets in the United States. Have dinner, unbelievable, everything from scratch, and the service was impeccable. And yet the drinks are all handcrafted and absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this hotel, and it was an extremely good value for the goods and services.
