We loved this hotel. The staff was very welcoming. The food in their restaurant was excellent. We loved the breakfast that was included. They have a latte machine for the morning and were nice enough to boil me some oat milk to make a latte. Probably the best coffee we had while in Iceland was here. It was an extremely convenient location for exploring the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. We would gladly stay here again in the future.

The Breakfast is good with many selection and the homemade bread is delicious. We had dinners at the restaurant and the food is well presented and worth the price we paid. The big bonus is that we were able to see the Northern Lights right outside our hotel room which is certainly a great plus given the freezing cold.

Great Stay
We had an amazing stay here. The room was cozy and had all the amenities needed for our overnight stay. The cafe on premises was great with a nice selection of items and the breakfast in the more had all the items needed to fuel up for a day of sightseeing. We would definitely stay at this property again.
