Hotel Glymur

Hotel was clean. Very friendly staff. Most could speak English well and those who couldn’t tried very hard. Was a pleasant stay.

Excellent stay in one of the villas. We got to see the Aurora by chance ! Good dinner (but a little pricey). Friendly and helpful host as well. ☺️

Hotel Glymur is comfortable and relaxing. I love the water and mountains. The restaurant is wonderful with excellent selections and a good wine list. We sat in the lounge afterward with a cocktail and conversation with new friends from the table next to us at dinner. Later the staff told us the northern lights were visible, so went outside and took several excellent pictures. The breakfast buffet was fresh with many selections. It’s only 90 minutes to Keflavik airport, so perfect for the last night in Iceland if you have a rental car.

Very comfortable hotel, nice room and beautiful view of the ocean. The complementary breakfast was excellent as well! They have two hot tubs outside which were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.

The 1 bed villa was great, worth the extra money compared to the hotel.

Loved the hot tub

We used this hotel as a convenient place to stay after a long day of sightseeing activities that would not be too far from the next day's activities. So we were not expecting greatness - only to be surprised by the personal quality of service in terms of politeness, flexibility, and willingness to help us. We were able to get upgrades, have the breakfast hour moved up by an entire hour, and get help with our bags. It is somewhat remote but the restaurant was very good and it appeared that many locals went there to eat. Rooms were clean but small. Bedrooms were in a loft where one had to climb up a narrow staircase to get to the bed. It was a bit inconvenient to have to negotiate one's way down to the bathroom on the first floor during the night but doable. There was ample parking and everything worked. I'd recommend the hotel.

What a charming hotel! Lots of quirky decorations throughout the hotel and in rooms. The staff were absolutely lovely- happy to help with any and all questions. We had a loft room, which was small but more than sufficient, with a breathtaking view of the fjord. We made use of the two hot-spring fed hot tubs available to guests as well. Sitting and looking out over the mountains at sunset was a magical experience. Breakfast was generous and good! P.S. If you drive to the hotel from Reykjavik, avoid a $10 toll by driving around the peninsula, rather than through the tunnel. It's an extra ~20min, and though the roads are winding the views are stunning.

Room was slightly dated but clean and comfortable, but really this hotel is all about the view!

Excellent hospitality and service; the breakfast was delicious!!!
