Icelandic Apartments by Heimaleiga

8/10 Good

"very clean room. good sound proof. parking is easy. location is convenient with a breakfast bakery and grocery near by. It was extremely helpful to have a small kitchen. Laundry is available in each floor but unfortunately the one on our level was broken."

"Amazing place to stay"

Camp Boutique- Glamping

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place & incredible stay."

Aurora Igloo South

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent and we had a wonderful stay! The only thing I didn’t love was that our igloo didn’t have a private toilet or bathroom, and the shared facilities were about 100 metres away. I didn’t feel comfortable walking there alone in the middle of the night, so I waited until morning. If you’re particular about having easy access to a bathroom, I definitely recommend booking an igloo with a private toilet and bathroom. Otherwise, everything was great!"

The Greenhouse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel with amazing views and very friendly staff. The restaurant had so many options and every staff and other customers were very friendly. The whole experience was amazing"
