Hotel is a ways from any dining or grocery options (groceries at the gas station), about 26 minutes. Not far from hiking (crater Hverfjall) and the lava fields (Dimmuborgir), about 45 minutes to Hverir and Krafla (Viti crater). Great scenic views from the hotel lounge. Dinner not served till 6pm, and no other options on site till then. Breakfast was included and had all the necessities. This is a hotel heavily frequented by tour and bus groups, so expect busy times at the restaurant. We found the food would have been much improved if it didn’t have so much rich sauce (arctic char), and so much cheese (lobster pasta). Rooms are comfortable and clean, it would be nice to have had a small fridge (but this doesn’t seem to be a thing in this country). Passing the laundry room en route to the rooms, afforded the sulfuric smells redolent of the thermal plants up the hill. Overall a comfortable stay.
