Iceland Golden Circle ⭕️ Quality Hotel 🏨
It faces Geysir Hot Spring 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Walk across the street and you can see the Geysir Geysir Geysir Fountain at any time 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. If the room is in front of the hotel, you can still see it spray once every 10 minutes or so. However, this is natural. The mysteries of nature. But my room looks to the back🥲.
The hotel room is super large and super beautiful. There are also local scented tea bags. Nice little gift 👍🏻👍🏻. Take it yourself🤪🤪
Superior location for all the attractions in Golden Circle.
Because I booked the snow mountain motorcycle experience, staying here is really convenient.
1) Opposite Geysir Hot Spring
2) Gullfoss waterfall 10 minutes drive.
3) Snowmobile meeting point, 5 minutes drive.
4) Faxafoss waterfall is another 10 minute drive.
5) Kerid Crater, 35 min.
Isn't it absolute 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I brought my boy friend here for a weekend. Open fire, cooking and realxing. What better place to do it than a A-frame cabin!?
