It was nice to have everything already planned. Having breakfast included with the hotel was very convenient. The three lagoon experiences were all unique and refreshing. The directions for driving and time allotted were adequate. It was helpful to know ahead of time what the highlights were and how long we should stay at each stop. It took the stress out of trip planning and having to arrange for hotel stays as well as excursions.

Centrally located, but our room was across from the tavern and so it was noisy until late into the night. Breakfast was good with many options.

Hotel Hvitserkur
Hvammstangi
The room with the bathrooms include included, was located in the basement and smelled of mold and horse manure. Window could not be open as there is no screen and flies will get in.. bathroom was tiny the size of a bathroom on a cruise ship. The Plz look more like a trailer home than a hotel but I guess given the location there are not many options. It was nice to see the horses right outside the window because it is a farm.
Authenticity & Character
Nice to see the horses right outside the windows in the mornings and evenings
Staff
Friendly staff who helped us with extra utensils and ice when we made our own meal
Cleanliness & Comfort
The rooms in the basement need to be aired out and maybe a dehumidifier as it felt moldy and musty down there
