The hotel was great, in a beautiful setting, and with excellent amenities. The bar/lounge area was so nice and the staff was friendly. My only complaint is that the dinner menu is limited and the chef was rigid and would not

Nice hotel, rude staff
The cleanliness of the room and hotel were very good. Unfortunately, the front desk employee at check in was rude and condescending and not helpful at all. The only food options were from the restaurant menu and very limited. I would suggest having a full meal elsewhere before arriving here.

Sub-standard, overpriced, food mediocre, seemed to be a tourist trap. Stayed 2 nights, awakened by drilling and hammering every day. Won’t be back to Hotel Budir

I had visited Iceland 10 years ago and stopped here but it was booked for a wedding. Glad to be able to stay. The location is beautiful and a 10 minute stroll to the beach. We stayed in the newer section and it was lovely and pampering. Food was excellent and there are plenty of gathering spaces. Definitely recommend it.

Fantastic location, rooms and atmosphere. Nicely refurbished and really nice rooms. The only minus was that our dining experience was not up to the standard that the rest of the hotel represented. 3 of us had the fish and it was dry and overcooked. One of us had the lamb and it was mostly fat. When we told the waitress, she shrugged her shoulders and offered us an extra napkin… I would stay here again, but I would plan dinner somewhere else.

Beautiful property, very quiet when we stayed in winter. Absolutely picturesque setting. Perfect place to watch the stars from, even if you have to hide behind the little church to get away from the hotel lights - it would be nice if they turned off their outside lights when the aurora is on display. Good vegan options in the restaurant, but would be nice to have more options at breakfast.

We had the superior room and it was worth the price. Beautiful interior, comfortable bed and lovely bathroom. At the lobby is a great fireplace to stay a while in front of it. Tasty food and good selection of wine in the restaurant. If you are around, stay in this cozy hotel, you will not regret it for sure!
