10/10 Exceptional

best hotel for vacation in Myvatn, good location with brilliant view. On the first light I was lucky enough to see some northern light at the car park. Room is spacious and easy to access to the sauna and the restaurant at the hotel, and the restaurant offer good quality food so I don't have to spend time to look for a restaurant in the district. Also the staff are friendly and I had a wonderful experience during my stay.
