This hotel is very noisy with the amount of wind that blows in Iceland. On top of that … families traverse back and forth across hallways slamming doors and making too much noise all through the night. For someone who had an earlier flight the next day … I never got any sleep.

Very comfortable and convenient.

Friendly, helpful receptionists. Room spacious, comfortable bed and excellent shower room. Very quiet, and only 5 minute walk to terminal. Evening restaurant fair. Nice service with good house wine. Food served very quickly, but too quickly suggesting overuse of the microwave. Breakfast served from 4am but we didn’t take it, so can’t comment on it. If you want a nice room at a good price, very close to the terminal, this is ideal.
