Literally just miles from the Arctic Circle. This hotel is run by a brother sister combo. They are very friendly and even helped me with a car issue. Within walking distance of arctic henge this hotel has a very nice field, very roomy rooms and a clean bathroom. The restaurant serves excellent food, and will cater to any whim. Did I mention the owner was very nice? Love this place.

Perfect location to see The Arctic Henge which is within walking distance of the hotel. Wanted to take pictures at sunset and sunrise so this worked out perfectly. Simple, clean, and friendly staff. Had a great salmon dinner in the hotel restaurant. Had hoped to see some northern lights but the night was cloudy and quite foggy.

Overall nice place. Room was very clean. Staff was very friendly. Normal breakfast for what you get in any Iceland hotel. Very quiet and was able to get a good nights sleep. There was no television in the room but the WiFi worked very well so you are able to get by without a tv. If your Iceland travels have you needing a room in this remote location a good place to stay.

Notalegt hótel
Mjög notalegt að dvelja þarna, fengum hlýlegar móttökur. Góð rúm og góður matur. Vingjarnlegt starfsfólk sem því miður talaði ekki íslensku og það er óheppilegt fyrir marga eldri borgara.
