I’m sure this guesthouse is quite busy in the summer but it was so quiet and nice this winter! The room was bigger than expected and the bathrooms and showers were clean. It was nice having everything to ourselves. We also had a vegan lasagna in the restaurant area and it was delicious. Thanks for a great stay!

We had a very nice stay here. Staff were friendly and helpful. Everywhere was spotlessly clean. the bed was comfortable. Tasty breakfast with plenty of choices. It was a short stroll down the hill to the Fontana geothermal baths.

This was the only "hostel" we stayed at while in Iceland but we did have a private room. The view was beautiful, everything was clean and the staff was amazing. We ate dinner there (not many other options nearby) and were pleasantly surprised! Definitely would recommend if you're in the area!

This is not a hotel and it does not have a pool. Showers are only on certain floors and usually locked. So you will have to take a shower at an odd time of day. Pics are of neighboring Lantana wellness center with pool for additional $40/ day. Worst hotel out of 500 hotels that I have ever stayed in. I asked for full refund due to fraudulent advertising, but was rejected. Motel 6 is better. Also, tiny bathroom towels.

This is a hostel. I did have a private bath but I was not expecting a hostel. It was VERY expensive and the online add was misleading with photos of a pool and hot tub. They were advertisements/photos for nearby hot springs that charge $50 per person to use and that's after the discount from the hostel. Would not return.

This is a unique and interesting place to spend the night. Beautiful location by the lake and walk to Fontana geothermal area.
Our room was small, clean and comfortable.
Restaurant has delicious pizza.
Shoes off at the door, shared bathrooms were not a problem.
We would definitely recommend it.

The only issue we had was the noise in the hall coming through the door and walls till everyone settled down at night. Otherwise a nice stay and location. Hot spring pool just down the street. Also several restaurants close by.

Very relaxed casual atmosphere. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel and enjoyed them both. Nice blackout blinds in the room. Very close to the Fontana spa which is very convenient.

Very convenient location if you are visiting sights along the Golden Circle. The staff were friendly, and the check-in process was very smooth. The restaurant was great - our pizza was delicious! Would recommend to anyone traveling along the Golden Circle!
