"Convenient location with comfortable room. The restaurant is excellent for dinner, the included breakfast was great with fresh baked bread daily.
We enjoyed the hot tub next to the river, including the quick dip in the river (November)."

"Just wow!!! The view and how the owners managed to build such a tiny cabin (as per the description) while using every inch of the cabin to make it useful and easy to use! Great job and we wish we stayed more than one night!"

Loved staying in this beautiful, peaceful hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful and we enjoyed sitting in the outside bar area in the evening. Breakfast was delicious and the room was immaculate.

The rating is actually 4.5 and its just because on our first day, our towels smelled so musty so we had to have them replaced. Also the corridors can be very noisy especially since the doors are heavy and slams if not guided to a close. If your room is close to the Spa, the geothermal smell (sulphurish) can be smelt in your room though that is not the hotels fault at all.
The reason I continued to give it 5 stars though is because these things are bearable and is not entirely a deal breaker...

We were so pleased we chose Hotel Grimsborgir for our stay. It is in a beautiful location, easy to get to lots of different places of interest and the scenery is amazing. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the accommodation was so comfortable and warm. The hot tub was a lovely addition.

Combining wilderness and luxury, you couldn’t feel cosier inside the small hotel with views ready to strike wonder at every turn.
Part industrial hipster warehouse with cement, part luxurious soft furnished grandeur, part nordic chic, you can firmly sink into comfort while the wilderness sweeps over you with breathtaking power.
Drink matcha ginger green smoothies and a hot breakfast whilst a blizzard sends storms of snow barrelling past the ten foot glass around you, or the sun rises on the...

This trip was a gift for my wife, to say she was pleased would be an understatement!
Having never been to Iceland before and not really knowing a lot about the country, I used the reviews on Expedia to make my choice of where to stay.
My wife and I were both very pleased with the accommodation at Frost and Fire. I opted for a superior suite, as I read the standard rooms are on the small size. Our room was very pleasant and clean, with a buautiful view of rivers and hills from the balcony....

Hotel Laxnes is located in Haholt which is about a 15 minute drive from Reyakvic. The views from the bedroom was stunning and there are plenty of facilities close by e.g. supermarket, pub and bakery. There is a bus stop just outside of the hotel and the number 15 and 6 go into Reyakvic, so it's easy to get into Reyakvic. The hotel was very clean and was cleaned everyday during our stay. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good and there was always plenty to eat at...

Very easy to book , good value and excellent communication all the way to check in, very comfortable, clean, modern and spacious with everything you could need. Excellent parking, very easy to find and in a nice quiet location with some great scenery and lots to see close by. Hot tubs are a bonus and are a perfect place to relax in the evening.

We stayed one night at the guesthouse, after a day around the Golden Circle. The room was clean, spacious and comfortable and it was so lovely to use the hot tub and sauna after our long day of sightseeing. The staff were very helpful and I would recommend staying at this guesthouse.

From the moment we arrived, until the minute we left, we were treated as valued guests. The hotel is based on a working horse farm offering a variety of rides and the horse theme is carried throughout the hotel, with rooms named after horses and even horse shoes for curtain tie backs which is a lovely touch.
The rooms are spacious, warm, comfortable and have most of what you need. We were loaned a hairdryer during our stay and there was a flat screen TV with more than usual satellite...

The views and amenities for this place are amazing. The apartment had absolutely everything you could want. The host was very happy to show us around and made us feel very welcome. The hot tub was just the "icing on the cake" for us - many thanks.
I have never slept in such a comfy bed!!
I would highly recommend both apartment & location x
