They had a small continental breakfast available by 4am for those of us leaving on the super early flights out of KEF which was appreciated. ##### Scott Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn 31 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent spot if you need to be near the airport, although harder to get to if you haven’t rented a car. Lots of room and the breakfast is available from 4am which is perfect for early morning flights. ##### Kathryn Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zachary 14 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great staff very helpful.

I did not realize it is on the old military base (we drove through the old gate). Yes, it's an older building, but it's very well kept up. It was clean and quiet. Parking was convenient. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room had lots of space (we had a room with a private bathroom). Great location for getting to the airport at 6am next morning. ##### Gelita Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeffry James 6 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean room, fresh sheets , good breakfast Close to airport....

The only thing I would recomend is considering renting a car to get there and back, as the taxi was not particularly cheap even though it is close to the airport (15 min max). ##### Emma Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hali Country Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reynivellir-Hotels-Hali-Country-Hotel.h18172586.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Kriunes - A city hotel by the lake](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Kriunes-A-City-Hotel-By-The-Lake.h6647410.Hotel-Information) > > [Dis Cottages](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grundarfjordur-Hotels-Dis-Cottages.h22438369.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Laxnes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Laxnes.h2391825.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Natura - Berjaya Iceland Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Icelandair-Hotel-Reykjavik-Natura.h12750.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Reykjavik Keflavik Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Reykjavik-Keflavik-Airport.h42318954.Hotel-Information) > > [Cavendish Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Eastbourne-Hotels-Cavendish-Hotel.h1222750.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Búrfell](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Burfell.h27054242.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Vík í Mýrdal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Vik.h35767873.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenhouse Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hveragerdi-Hotels-The-Greenhouse-Hotel.h63857923.Hotel-Information) > > [Northern Light Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Northern-Light-Inn.h12320638.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Örk](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hveragerdi-Hotels-Hotel-Ork.h1543128.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Keflavik by Reykjavik Keflavik Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Hotel-Keflavik.h119429.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in New Zealand](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-New-Zealand-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d133-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Frost and Fire Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hveragerdi-Hotels-Frost-And-Fire-Boutique-Hotel.h8098545.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fagurholsmyri-Hotels-Fosshotel-Glacier-Lagoon.h12794262.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Mexico](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Mexico.d117.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Reykjavik Keflavik Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Reykjavik-Keflavik-Airport.h3243.Hotel-Information) > > [Lava Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lava-Lodge.h46039652.Hotel-Information) > > [201 Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-201-Hotel.h20522120.Hotel-Information) > > [The Retreat at Blue Lagoon Iceland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-The-Retreat-At-Blue-Lagoon-Iceland.h33987034.Hotel-Information) > > [Aurora Hotel at Reykjavik-Keflavik Airport Terminal KEF](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reykjavik-Hotels-Aurora-Hotel-At-Reykjavik-Keflavik-Airport-Terminal-KEF.h6567348.Hotel-Information) > > [Hörgsland cottages](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirkjubaejarklaustur-Hotels-Horgsland-Cottages.h37136632.Hotel-Information) > > [Magma Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kirkjubaejarklaustur-Hotels-Magma-Hotel.h19532793.Hotel-Information) > > [Black Beach Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Black-Beach-Suites.h21959953.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Kría](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Kria.h22847314.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Grimsborgir by Keahotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Selfoss-Hotels-Hotel-Grimsborgir-Your-Golden-Circle-Retreat.h3644141.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Chauchina (GRX)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/grx/london-to-granada)
