Absolutely loved this property. The artwork in the lobby alone was captivating in how it used historical elements from previous versions of the hotel to tell the story of the hotel. Great cocktails and a lovely breakfast buffet all situated in a great location. If you are here, you are probably doing the Ring Road, only a short drive from the thermal areas of Myvatan and walking distance to both the lake and some off the beaten path thermal caves you can enjoy.

The hotel itself was nice, good room and spa, the restaurant had good food. But the smell was HORRIBLE. Beware it smells very strong of sulphur outside the hotel and in the water. As soon as you turn on the sink or the shower, you get smacked with a horrible stench. And there was a loud screeching noise all night that was annoying. Other than that, the actual room is decent and the hotel staff was very nice.
