Charming hotel! Friendly staff l.

It was cold and rainy yet a wonderful experience.

Clean, spacious rooms with a "mudroom" like area to unload all your winter gear. It was warm, close to the hotel that served breakfast and also close to a lookout area for Aurora hunting and star gazing. The bathrooms worked well and good amount of parking.

It is a bit of a drive down a smaller road off the highway, which in the winter was slower going because of the snow. The road however was plowed despite it having been snowing right until our arrival. The guesthouse was very clean, the kitchen was well stocked with spices, and best of all there's a second sink so you can brush/wash your face while the bathroom is occupied which saved us time as a group. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The room is a bit small at the entrance without anywhere to really put wet boots so getting in/out was a bit tight and a challenge to keep socks dry. There's a loft area for some of the beds which gives you some more space although the staircase is a little tight for larger luggage. The room was clean, the breakfast is close by with tea and coffee always available. There's a lot of storage by the room entrance which was nice and the loft provides some extra room without having to bend.

A lot of fun and a unique experience. The guide double checked all our gear and made sure we were safe but able to enjoy the walk. She also helped us take lots of pictures including stopping in areas with good views to give us a chance to take pictures. Highly recommend

The ice cave is amazing. Absolutely gorgeous and our guide made it even better by encouraging us to turn off our lamp lights when we were all safe to let us experience the cave naturally. However finding the start of the tour was a bit of a challenge (it wasn't the vehicle as stated on on reservation but near an ad sign where a worker found us as we were trying to figure out where to go) and the vehicle was failing to start up at the beginning until our guide got it working. But once we were moving it was absolutely enjoyable and very fun.

This was an activity that I underestimated and had booked for something to do, not necessarily because I really wanted to do it. We had visited The Lava Show in Reykjavik which gave us some education regarding lava tunnels and it was actually a really cool experience.

The ice cave was very crowded and was a lot of stopping for prolonged periods of time before moving to the next area, where you waited for a very long time. Our group was small, which was nice, however we had a few individuals who were always lagging behind to take photos and it really slowed us down. What could've taken 30 minutes took more than over an hour. I feel like there were too many people inside the cave and that it would've been better if the tours were more staggered so you weren't constantly waiting around. Another tour that we did had a nice idea of bringing us to the end fairly quickly while still being informative and not rushing, and then gave us all the option of exploring and making our way back at our own pace. This way people could take photos and take their time if they wanted to while others could make their way back quicker. This doesn't exactly work with the ice cave tour as they transport tour-goers to and from base, however maybe there could be a couple of options for departure from the cave.

I described the Snaefellsnes Peninsula to my friends as the dark side of the moon. Isolated, surrounded by snow and ice. The hotel was warm and welcoming . Dinner was excellent as was breakfast. I wholeheartedly recommend.

A little tricky in the snow and ice.

Crazy but so much fun

Definitely a hike but worth it! The glacier was astounding and climbing was a treat. Sara our guide was fabulous and understanding.
