The property feels a bit outdated, without yet having that classic charm. The staff is very attentive. We took the walk to the beach — highly recommended — and the service was excellent; they even dried our sneakers overnight so they’d be ready the next day. The food was very good, with a great dinner and a nice breakfast. ##### Alexander jacob Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katy 21 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved this remote hotel with its outstanding views, comfortable rooms and delicious food.

Pros: excellent location, beautiful view, quiet surroundings, beautiful walk down to the black sand beach (though be weary - it is not so much a beach as a stream, but still beautiful), polite staff. Cons: The noise in the hallway bordered on unbearable - people talking even in the most respectable way, carried and echoed all the way down the hall, and the doors did not close well so there was a lot of slamming. There is \*technically\* room service available, but there are NO PHONES in the room, so if you want any, you have to walk down to reception (which is literally beside the restaurant) and order it, which really defeats the purpose of room service (though to be fair the food was delicious), the hotel itself was more run down that the online photos suggest. All in all, the location really made this stay for me, and the limited occupancy made parking and such always very easy. However, the hotel itself, and what it offered, was generally underwhelming. It wasn't horrible, but it wasn't as unique an experience as I was hoping for. ##### Vanessa Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Diane 1 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities A gorgeous property. The black sand beach was incredible. The restaurant was first class. The breakfast was plentiful. I prefer showers with lips so that the water doesn’t flood. Very enjoyable, albeit pricey. ##### Diane Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Avery 13 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wonderful property with amazing views!

The location is absolutely beautiful, with easy access to the beach just a short stroll away. It’s also conveniently close to plenty of great restaurants, shops, and local attractions. Perfect spot for both relaxation and adventure. Highly recommend! ##### padmaja Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 10 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent property with friendly staff and delicious food. ##### Michael Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen 15 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The hotel is remote but has everything you need including scheduling a massage. The rooms were comfortable, the bar and lounge area are exceptional, and we had the best food of the trip in the hotel restaurant. Truly exceptional. ##### Kathleen Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ryan 20 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wonderful location and fantastic food! ##### Ryan Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emily 19 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing hotel. Views and beach walk was amazing. Easy drive to vik and beyond. Restaurant was delicious but eclectic. If you want somewhere more casual to eat you have to go into Vik. Sauna was gorgeous and staff was great, highly recommend! ##### Emily Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Joseph 22 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A Very Nice Stay Best hotel in the area in my opinion. Definitely would recommend if you're travelling through. Breakfast was nice and the evening restaurant food was very impressive. Only issue i found was the price tag on using the sauna, very expensive, hence why i didnt use it. ##### Joseph Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrea 15 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Food was amazing along with the service of the staff. ##### Andrea Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 9 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful, small boutique hotel in great location off the Ring road route near Skógafoss and 30 min from Dyrhólaey and black sand beach. Staff is lovely and dinner is great. It is somewhat isolated so dining at the hotel is the easiest as it’s probably a 40 minute drive to Vik. There is a 15 min private walk on property to black sand beach with virtually no one in sight for miles - stunning. At night horses came from the nearby farm to drink from the little pond outside our window and guests were feeding them. A great, peaceful hotel. ##### Susan Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 26 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing facility, great food, bathroom work Amazing facility and grest location with beautiful mountain and ranch views. Great food. Friendly staff. Bathrooms a bit dim and need place for hairdryer. Could offer regular sheets when comforter is too warm. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sunil 26 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice clean modern hotel with helping staff. ##### sunil Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### June 7 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing views around and has private black sand beach, excellent location for northern lights ##### June Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Blue Hotel Fagrilundur - On The Golden Circle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blaskogabyggd-Hotels-Blue-Hotel-Fagrilundur.h67447523.Hotel-Information) > > [Bis Hotel Varese](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Varese-Hotels-Bis-Hotel-Varese.h1331177.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with a Bar in Barry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barry-Hotels-Hotel-With-A-Bar.0-0-d601592-thotelwithabar.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Cottages Little Bavington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Little-Bavington-Cottages.d3000472518-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels near Sitges Beachfront](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sitges-Beachfront-Hotels.0-l3000662397-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Gesthús Selfoss](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Selfoss-Hotels-Gesthus-Selfoss.h21124190.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Bristol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels.d688.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Trebarwith Strand](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trebarwith-Strand-Hotels.d3000425514.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Hill Hotel at Flúðir](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hrunamannahreppur-Hotels-Icelandair-Hotel-Fludir.h1404760.Hotel-Information) > > [Golden Circle Domes Glamping Experience](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Selfoss-Hotels-Golden-Circle-Domes-Glamping-Experience.h91053978.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Playa Blanca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Playa-Blanca-Villas.d553248635976948700-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels with Connecting Rooms in Edinburgh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Hotel-With-Connecting-Rooms.0-0-d7814-thotelwithconnectingrooms.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Torfhús Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blaskogabyggd-Hotels-Torfhus-Retreat.h34449003.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Connecting Rooms in Verona City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Verona-City-Centre-Verona-Hotels-Hotel-With-Connecting-Rooms.0-n6200772-0-thotelwithconnectingrooms.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Family-Friendly Hotels in Tenby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tenby-Hotels-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d182887-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Florence (FLR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/flr/manchester-to-florence) > > [Flights from Lusaka (LUN) to Hounslow (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lun/lhr/lusaka-to-london) ### Cars > [Car hire in Townsville](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Townsville.d5657428.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Packages > [Algorfa Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Algorfa.d6125174.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Oxford Circus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Circus-London-City-Centre.d6187968.Attraction) > > [Gold Souk](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gold-Souk-Downtown-Amman.d553248627519143399.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Cathedral City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cathedral-City.dx6789) ---
