"Nous étions situés dans une partie qui semblait rénové. Le chambre était pratique avec un beau point de vue lors du coucher de soleil. L'option "Buffet" servi au restaurant est dispendieuse mais permet de découvrir différents mets. Bon service à la clientèle et demeure à l'écoute de nos besoins."

"We loved the hotel with the exception of our room, which was almost too small to function. The bed was terrific though. The bathroom was only large enough for one at a time. Our luggage took most of the floor space. The restaurant and bar were great, our meals were 5 star, and all of the staff were helpful and gracious. I’d stay there again, just not in room 303."

"Nestled below Snaefelles Volcano and above the Sea, this cabin has a striking location. The house is modern, quiet, clean, and comfortable. We spent one day touring the national park and another circumnavigating the northern and southern shores of the peninsula. Made for a memorable and restorative interlude."

"Unique, stand-alone apartments/suites on a scenic site. Close to a beautiful but challenging hiking trail. A little cafe is within a few minutes walking distance, as is a hotel with a restaurant and bar. There are no beverages or snacks. Check-in is flawless if you read your email from 2 days before. (We were traveling and didn’t check.) No air conditioning, but open windows cooled the room. In the end, it might have been nice to stay another night or two."
