4/10
It was a very mixed experience to be honest. To put the positive sides first: If you're looking for a great variety of drinks and various kinds of foods you'll find an Icelandic Eldorado here. From Hveragerði there's plenty of opportunities to visit the typical marvellous places of the Golden Circle and many more. There are shops inside the hotel where you can buy clothes, souvenirs and more. There are shops around the hotel as well.
But there have been more disturbing things about it in our opinion. The rooms were very basic and not very comfortable. They became quite hot during day and night, an open window couldn't handle that problem. Every night we had screaming people on the hotel floor next to our door, slamming doors and preventing sleep till late at night. We checked out before the actual end of our stay and fortunately got another hotel. The last day we had dozens of black flies in our room leaving as many itchy bites on our skin.
Breakfast was below standard, if you want more special items you have to pay for it.
Our conclusion: if you're a young hipster who loves to party all night, meet many people and just need a simple room you're at the right adress here. If you enjoy coziness, comfortable and cool rooms and prefer a good night's sleep we would not recommend it.
