The setting is ideal, it's such a great place to escape. The bar/lounge area is the best place to enjoy sunset with a cocktail (happy hour is 6-7 every day). The breakfast was great, the dinner was shockingly delicious. The room could use an update (our bench was broken but we didn't care enough to say anything about it while we were there so that's on us) but also has everything you need. Would stay here again!

Loved the "remote" location and view of the glacier. Staff was wonderful. Great stop along the Ring Road at a good stopping point if you're starting a drive from Akureyri.
