Gistihúsið - Fljotsdalsherad

Edit! No chance to really sleep! Maybe on the top floor, but my room was under another room. Every step and every movement echoes through the building. Flat cushion, itching beds and booming steps until late and then again before sunrise. Everyone on foot makes more noise! Small room, even smaller bathroom! I understand that it is an old building, but mention other reviews that their rooms were not too small. This is smaller than most dormitories and the bed is hardly a cot. The bathroom reminds me of train cabins. Clean, but so small. This was reserved as a superior room.

I think the only hotel that was open at the end of December in Egisstadir. But that does not matter, because it is a very good alternative (even if more hotels are open). The lobby and the restaurant are very cozy. The breakfast was one of the best during our trip. The spa area is very well maintained. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I can fully recommend the Lake Hotel.

The restaurant was delicious! We had their vegan nuts steak and vegan soup! And it was so good! So happy to find a nice restaurant with vegan options. A must try! Also a vegan cheesecake. Your coffee latte was also great.

Was only able to spend a night here, but everything was absolutely fabulous. Beautiful spa that calms the ashes from hiking. Soft robes were available. Our room was quite large to Iceland standards and very comfortable. It had the best bathroom on the trip with a large shower!!! The biggest surprise was our dinner. It was spectacular!!! My daughter and I shared a small plate of Celery root that had just layered so many wonderful aromas in the plate. Then we both have the car. From plate presentation to taste everything was great!!! I regret being able to eat here only once.

Cosy room, very strong water smell. Breakfast was great. They also have a restaurant for lunch and dinner, but the waitress we had was not nice and she rushed before we could finish a sentence.
