Hotel berhampiran The Elephant Ljosastapi, Vopnafjordur

Notre chambre est composée d'un lit superposé et d'un lit simple, assez petite mais avec un lavabo. Sanitaires à partager très propres. Accueil très agréable. Nous avons pris le repas du soir dans leur restaurant. L'agneau est leur production privée, le poisson péché et livré par le voisin, le renne est chassé par l'hôtelier, bref hyper local. C'est très bien cuisiné et bien présenté.

Standard icelandic hotel whereby no toiletries provided. Good location easy to find. Nearby has petrol & groceries for top up of necessities. Reception is professional but not friendly and warm.

Freundlicher und hilfsbereiter (Tischreservation in einem anderen Restaurant) Empfang. Zimmer sind OK, für eine Nacht war alles vorhanden was benötigt wurde, Platzverhältnisse für Alleinreisende ausreichend, zu Zweit wird es etwas eng. Frühstücksangebot entsprach dem normalen, nichts ausergwöhnliches, alles von guter Qualität. Parkplätze genügend vorhanden (vor- und hinter dem Haus).

This hotel is very charming, clean, and has a lot of history. Situated on a lovely lake, the grounds are gorgeous plus they offer some spa services and a full restaurant. We stayed here during our ring road tour and wish we had more time to enjoy the town and this wonderful hotel. Hopefully next time! The complimentary breakfast was also very good with a large variety for every palate.

While the lounging and dining area was large and bright, the kitchen was tiny and poorly laid out. There was no way to have two groups prepare a meal at the same time, the sink was in the way of the fridge and the conduction cooktop did not respond to touch. One of the three days, we had no towels to wash or dry our dishes ( which were hand washed by the guests,poorly!) The bed was hard, lumpy and saggy. The bathrooms were adequately clean, but the air circulation was very poor if the door was shut between users as it often was. Their smells persisted for at least ten minutes after they left the room. The hallways and dining area was extremely echo-y. There was no way to carry on two conversations in the room at the same time. We arrived at the usual time guests would arrive - 2 other parties arrived while we were waiting - we had to ring up an employee who was off site and had to wait quite some time. We had the feeling this place was all about the owner making money and nothing else. They charge 5,000 ISK for one load of laundry! Our smaller room did not have information about the services in town but the larger rooms had all the usual information one would expect to welcome you into a new town. Despite the good breeze outside, the windows did not open enough to let enough air flow through to ventilate the rooms. We decided to leave the guesthouse one day early and forfeit the cost to get new accommodations.
