I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious with a great mattress and a huge bathroom, and having tea and coffee available was a nice touch. The service was top-notch, from housekeeping to the welcome drink and tour assistance. The location was ideal, right off the main road before entering the stunning Snæfellsnes peninsula. The dining experience, with indulgent pastries, was a delightful treat. The facilities were excellent too, providing everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
