Terry set up our trip just as we wanted.
Iceland

May 22 - May 29, 2023
Terry came up with a plan for our trip after gathering information from me via text and phone call. She answered all of my questions promptly and was easy to reach. While in Iceland one of our tours was cancelled due to bad weather and the representative,Michele, located in Iceland corresponded efficiently with us to try to come up with alternatives. Every hotel we experienced was superb. We especially enjoyed the Fosshotel Hellnar where we had a larger room. The Arnarstapi/Hellnar trail hugged the water and we walked the trail from Hellnar to Arnarstapi and had dessert at a restaurant in Arnarstapi before heading back to Hellnar. The free breakfasts at all of the hotels were more than adequate and each hotel had a restaurant where we often ate dinner. At Fosshotel Lake Myvatn, we found Carlos to be especially helpful and very professional. At each hotel, our check-in was seamless and the staff was lovely. I highly recommend working with KimKim and especially with Terry.
Hotel Reviews
I highly recommend this hotel. The room was clean and comfortable and the staff was very friendly. One front desk employee, Carlos, stood out as especially helpful, friendly and polite. He always greeted us with a smile and went above and beyond to answer our questions about the area. The hotel has a sauna that looks out over beautiful landscape. The breakfast that came with our reservation was delicious, plenty of items to choose from. We stayed here for 3 nights and felt very comfortable there.
The room was large and cozy and the staff was lovely. The restaurant has good food as well. We enjoyed our stay.
This was our second time staying at this hotel and we especially liked the location. It is at the end of the Main Street in downtown Reykjavik. It is quiet however. The breakfast is a delicious spread. The hotel staff is always helpful and accommodating.
The Berjaya Hotel Akureyri was clean and comfortable. However, the bathroom layout was a bit odd, with the shower on one side of the bed and the toilet on the other. Some people might not like this, but it didn't bother us too much
Activity Review
I absolutely loved the Myvatn Nature Baths. It was such a relaxing experience, and the warm water felt amazing. We did however prefer the Forest Lagoon hot springs to the Myvatn Nature Baths.
Hi Lynne, Thank you so very much for the wonderful review. It was so much fun planning this with you. The 11 months flew by so fast. I look forward to helping you with your next Iceland trip (to either the Westfjords or to the Highlands) whenever that may be. Warmest regards, Terry
