Wonderful stay at the hotel in Arnastapi, Iceland! The food was delicious and plentiful. The hotel room was clean and comfortable. Loved exploring the scenic walking trails and taking in the stunning ocean views. Highly recommend!

The area by this hotel is amazing. It was clean and nice, though on the smaller side. Hot water is limited but shouldn’t be an issue if you take quick showers.

Hotel is next to the shore so if it's a nice day, you can walk and the view will be amazing but if it's raining, have in mind that the walk to your room is open space (no roof). Btw, the apple map drives you further, the hotel reception is at the restaurant.

Loved our stay here. The property was clean and modern. The exterior access to the rooms was unique. A couple nice dining options. Direct access to hiking was very convenient.

Great location, walking distance to several sightseeing places. For check in, we had to wait a bit as the staff also work at the restaurant . The room is clean, a bit small for 3 people. There is limitation on hot water usage which is understandable.

This was the best hotel in our entire stay in Iceland.
The little wooden building with our room was kind of rudimental simplistic from the outside but very nicely equipped and comfortable. The view from the large floor to ceiling window was astonishingly beautiful. The restaurant was also nice, and they served good traditional Icelandic food too. I would recommend this hotel to any of my friends. I would like to go back sometimes hopefully in the near future. :)

It was a nice room. We had a family room that had a king size bed and twin in one room and a twin bed in another room. Also had a small fridge, microwave, table and chairs, and small couch — best part was two bathrooms. The location was awesome, such beautiful shoreline and mountains. Only complaint is breakfast wasn’t included.

Good in the end 😀
Rather strange place. Long way to walk in the snow to my room even though Hotel was not busy. Check in even though I was there before 2200 hrs the reception was closed and I had difficulty contacting anyone. Did not get an email regarding the key box code. However room was ok. Clean and comfortable. Breakfast expensive though the staff were very nice and helpful. ( from Ukraine)

This hotel is a little gem situated in a naturally beautiful part of Iceland. Walking distance from the hotel one finds themselves surrounded by the ocean, volcanic cliffs, birds, mountains and Waterfalls. Jump in the can and explore even more, and if you have a 4X4 take the F-Roads up toward the glacier and see the natural marvels this area offers. There is weather, so pack or wear protection against rain and wind — but this is Iceland, so you are proibably already equipped.

A small table where you can eat or use your laptop would be nice. We had 2 chairs but no table. Check in was quick. We were given our keys and nothing else. No other information about the area or anything else.

We liked this hotel. It was very clean and comfy. Nice bed. We saw the aurora borealis just outside our room, that was amazing!
We didn't have the best experience with the breakfast. Eggs were gone and when we asked the lady about them she wasn't very nice about it.
Otherwise I believe they are a very good choice to stay around the area!

Very nice!
I recently stayed at this hotel and had a pleasant experience. The room was nice and had a good atmosphere. It was clean and modern, leaning more towards basic rather than chic. The location, though, was truly beautiful and perfect for witnessing the mesmerizing Aurora Borealis.
One thing to note is that the restaurant closes at 9 pm, so be sure to arrive before then or have some food with you, as there are no dining options nearby. Other than that, it's a great place for nature enthusiasts and Aurora chasers.
