The hotel is very charming and the service is very good. Although breakfast starts at 8am they were accomodating as we needed to start earlier. Also location is very nice. I’d give it 5 but there were a couple of issues. First mouse at night. they put the smoking corner right under the front rooms so we had a few people sitting outside and being a bit load and the noise goes straight to your room. This stopped eventually but you don’t need to worry about such things when you pay this price and want a quiet luxury stay. Second they have SPA and hot tubs but you still need to pay extra to use them. Third, although this was recently built the bathroom is a little claustrophobic and very small. You hardly can put a toothbrush next to the sink. Not sure why they don’t give more space to bathrooms in such the property when you build it from scratch.

We did not stay at this hotel, but did a horseback riding tour and then had dinner at the hotel. The horseback ride was beautiful and a highlight of the trip. The tour guide was a young lady from Germany that was very knowledgeable on Icelandic horses. She helped us pick rain gear, gloves, and helmets for the ride. She stopped by a waterfall on the property for a photo op. Dinner was great and in a charming restaurant at the hotel adjacent to the stables.
