The owner and staff were so helpful as we arrived early from our cruise ship and they were very accommodating. Lots of nice general areas for us to relax as a group waiting for our rooms and in the evening after a wonderful dinner at the restaurant. Hot home baked bread at breakfast was a treat

If you've ever flown into Iceland, you know the international airport (Keflavik) is 45 minutes from Reykjavik and not conveniently located at all (because it was built as a NATO base and not a commercial airport). This hotel in the small town of Gardur is much closer to the airport and is in a very quaint setting a few hundred yards from a beach and a classic lighthouse. We chose it deliberately having visited Iceland and that lighthouse the previous year. Although Reykjavik is worth a day trip, most of the natural wonders you go to Iceland to see requires driving far away from the city. This hotel was perfect for our purposes. The room was nice, the staff friendly and the price significantly less than in Reykjavik.

This property was better than I thought it would be when we booked last minute on Expedia. Super clean, and we were greeted get a warm and friendly staff person in the evening. Breakfast was also excellent. Great option to stay at for the night before your flight versus the airport hotel options… super peaceful to look out on the ocean and the horses next door. Perfect finish to our trip.

This is an excellent location either to begin or end your visit to Iceland. Quiet, clean, spacious, friendly and welcoming staff, close to the airport. We enjoyed our last Icelandic supper at the EOS table. B.C. our compliments to the chef for the quality, quantity, freshness, presentation of the plate! Best Icelandic Cod.

Nice overnight stay after flying into airport at 1800. Didn't feel like navigating into central city after trip so opted for something closer to airport. Comfortable, nice overnight stay.

Clean & spacious room. Instant coffee available in room and lobby. Very friendly staff, helped arrange a taxi for us to the airport. Lighthouse Inn restaurant nearby, food was great. Only downside of our stay was that the room was very warm/unable to adjust temp or get any airflow, and we were unable to sleep.

Staff were very friendly. Room was clean. Our checkout was before breakfast was being served, front desk staff ordered us a bagged lunch so we would have something to take with us on the road. A nice little perk. Thanks for a great stay.
