10/10 Excellent
"We loved the Siglo Hotel! It was so quaint, clean, quiet and perfectly located. Check-in was great and Filip(?) was very helpful with all of our questions. We were taking the ferry to Grimsey Island the next day and he and his coworker (Helga?) were able to print our tickets for us, which we forgot to do prior. The hotel had a great restaurant which we ended up eating at later. We wanted to eat at the bar, which was so cool, but they didn’t provide food there. I think they would get more business if they offered food options as not one person was there. We explored the town, which was steps away from the hotel and in a beautiful fjord setting with mountains all around. The hot tubs looked amazing tho we did not partake of them. We didn’t have time to dine in for breakfast the next day as we were short on time, but it looked great and we managed to snag a couple croissants as we headed out the door. Unfortunately, take out coffee is not a thing in Iceland. We would love to come back when we have more time to enjoy this lovely property!"
