“Views of the lake from the room. Room was Spartan but functional and clean.”
“Very nice view of the lake, very friendly and helpful staff. No problems with the wifi the other reviews mentioned.”
“They have an okay restaurant at the hotel. Better than nothing. I was so hungry when I came in that they made me toast. That was the best toast ever.”
“Storutjarnir means 'The Great Lakes' and is a kind of dry joke as the two lakes nextdoor to the hotel are relatively small. They create a beautiful view, however, from the dining room and the bedrooms on that side of the hotel. The hotel is excellent as an en route overnight accommodation choice because the Godafoss ( 'Falls of the gods' ) waterfall, the Sprengisandur ( 'Bursting Sand' ) mountain trail through the wilds of central Iceland, the Myvatnssveit ( ' Midge Lake District' ) tourist sight, the Krafla ( 'Crawler' ) volcano and the Dettifoss ( 'Tumbling Falls' ) waterfall are all within easy reach.”
“Near godafoss waterfall.good breakfast. Lots of bathrooms .”
“Good for a stop over on the ring road. Staff went out of their way to accommodate our late arrival.”
“Great location. Rooms are dormitory type but comfortable. Staff is very helpful. We had a great view from our room.”
“This was the best property we stayed in entire Iceland. It had an indoor basketball court, a swimming pool and was just next to Godafoss.”
“love the idea of school/hotel, the employed are very nice, love the landscape..”
“They have a great gym you can play basketball in and also a small weight room”
