I had an incredible stay at this hotel, where cleanliness was impeccable, and the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The location was perfect, providing stunning views of glaciers and easy access to glacier walking and ice cave exploring. I loved the cozy little kitchen, which was furnished with everything I needed, allowing me to prepare meals during my stay. The comfortable bed and peaceful environment made it a fantastic retreat after a long day of exploring.

We loved the stunning location, as we were perfectly situated between the glacier lagoon and Skaftafell, which made exploring easy. The modern facilities were top-notch, and we appreciated the cleanliness and homely touches like the well-equipped kitchen. Watching the Aurora Borealis from our window was an unforgettable experience, and the owner was incredibly helpful in providing local insights and recommendations.
