The perfect pitstop

Lovely warm welcome on arrival. Quickly checked in and offered a complementary coffee (we also bought a delicious homemade cookie). Left a bag of laundry with reception which was ready before 8am the next day. The walk around the grounds is beautiful. The breakfast is a nice variation from the typical, we really enjoyed it. Thanks to all the staff.

Warm and welcoming! They have a great common room where you can sit and enjoy the amazing views. Coffee and tea are available 27/7. Breakfast was full of variety - fresh breads, fruit, cereals/granola, butter, jams, Nutella, and peanut butter, cheese and ham. **For a small fee you can pack your own lunch from the breakfast supplies!! Fresh cookies and giant cinnamon rolls available for purchase. Staff was outstanding.

No hand towels, cramped breakfast buffet, location9km from Eglisstadir on the road to nowhere
PETER, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good pit shop on our ring road itinerary. Breakfast was good and family room size was decent. Enough bathrooms. Having tea and coffee available 24x7 is a big plus. It’s 7km out from city center so u do need a car.
