The property has a modern design with very spacious rooms & public spaces. The leisure spaces (bar, restaurant) are superbly fit and the services are impecabile, with some of the nicest personnel we have met in Iceland (the have made dinner reservations for us, presented us with complimentary drinks in our last night and so on).

Loved this hotel. Modern rooms, lovely bathroom! This is the only place we stayed in Iceland that had a fridge in the room which was great to have. Loved the self check in process! Makes it so quick and easy to check in and out. And you can arrive any time then. This is great if you’ve been out sightseeing all day. Included breakfast was nice. We got some views of the northern lights above the hotel (although a little bit harder to see than other spots with the light from the hotel) Restaurant mika that the hotel recommended was really good.

The location is a good base for travellers doing the golden circle. They offer northern lights alert. Though we weren’t able to see it in our stay, I imagine the hotel would be a perfect place to see the northern lights.

We stayed at the Frost and Fire hotel from the 28th December - 1st January. From the time we arrived until the time we left, the staff couldn't do enough for us. They were very friendly and approachable. Marianne even made us a packed lunch as we had to leave before breakfast for the airport. We really appreciated it. The views are breathtaking. We were very lucky that it snowed during the time we were there. The natural hot springs baths were an added special extra! We took a walk from the hotel up the mountain (the hotel will give you a route). We really recommend you do this! It took around 2 hours! We booked to go on a northern lights tour. You should definitely do this, but know it isn't guaranteed to see them. However, we saw the lights from the hotel on two evenings, so there is definitely a chance you can for that! The room was spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. We could see the sunrise every morning! Wow! The food needs to be mentioned. It was delicious and worth every penny. We had breakfast and an evening meal twice there. The Icelandic buffet on New Year’s Eve was amazing! Also the fireworks were out of this world! 🎆 We walked up the mountain path to see them and would definitely recommend you do that!

Love the little cottage - we felt very safe and it was like a nice home to come home too. I wished we stayed more than a night. The dogs were very friendly and came by to play in the morning as we were building snowmen. We were able to cook dinner with all the supplies and it was great to have a dishwasher. Bathroom was clean and warm - everything was wonderful.

The shared facilities were very nice (massive kitchen, lounge, sitting room), since it's for 12 rooms to share. There were only a few guests when we stayed so it was nice and quiet, but can imagine it getting noisy (not the property's fault). Very clean everywhere.

Great place in south of Iceland.

Great place in south of Iceland. The town of "flowers" is a good name for this place, as it is the warmest place in Iceland, where they grow flowers and enjoy life. It has the best swimming pool of the whole country, with an amazing "steam room" that is heated with steam straight from the vulcanic core of our planet.

Centre of Fludir has grocery store, a gas station and 2 hotels - all four located very closely across the street. So we could get full tank of gadoline to drive further and wr had really good breakfast in hotel, but for the evening got some food in the shop. We didn't spend much time there and sayed only for one night driving through from one destination point to anothes as we dind't find any interesting object to visit in this town.

Geyser area is a popular stop in Iceland.

Geyser area is a popular stop in Iceland. Although I was skeptical of a hotel, located at a tourist, attraction, the hotel impressed us. The facility was new. The restaurant was top notch. In the evening After the tourist flow slows down, it is awesome to have so close to a cool attraction

What I liked most was the location and the cottage itself. It was in fantastic conditions and modern styled which made it feel very luxury. We ate at the restaurant which has the same owner as the cottages, and though it was a great selection of food - it was not the best for me who's gluten intolerant. However, they were super helpful and made sure I got something as well.

Lovely home full of character and spacious living area. Garden was beautiful and we used the hot tub every night. Loved it. Do your food shopping before you arrive as there are no local shops. Selfoss is a good place to stock up. Make sure you stop into Skalholt- good views, nice archeological sites and a good bistro.
