Lovely hotel on the golden circle. Really easy to check in, rooms and beds were very comfortable and the breakfast was good. The restaurant Mika across the road was very good and convenient. Hot tubs were a nice addition.

    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!

    The accommodation is very well located, next to all points of interest on your trip To Iceland - before or after exploring Golden circle and the perfect stop to continue your road trip from/to the South. The cabin we booked was very clean, the bed was very comfortable, the bathroom as well, and equipped with a private kitchen as well. We recommend it 100% and will definitely book there again if we come back to Iceland

    The location is amazing, mountains all around. The windowview was incredible! Lots of amazing sightseeing nearby, including the brúarfoss waterfall that is only a 5 to 10 minute drive. The food and ice-cream from their own cows was also so so good! The first day I had the best sirloin steak I ever had! Not to mention the room which was so beautiful and cosy with all the wood :)

    Location ,breakfast,reception,place value everything was more than perfect also the staff were more than friendly and co-operative. Furthermore, they helped us with our plan which we did for the activities and the place we want to see by booking and advising. The hotel is in the countryside but you will find a markts and resturats along with gas stations very nearby.

    Good Location to visit golden circle. You will find everything you need to cook. They changed the towels on our second day (nice gesture, not really needed) My husband loved their dogs and played with them even when it was windy snowy and very cold. We had troubles at our arrival unlocking the door and they came and helped us. (The owners live around there)

    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.

    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.

    We had an incredible 7 night stay at Elín & Börkurs property! The view of the river is extremely beautiful, so relaxing and the perfect setting to enjoy the hot tub and some Aurora spotting. We travelled as two families, a group of nine in total, and the property was perfect for us. The two shower rooms (one en-suite) and four bedrooms worked well. The hot tub is always ready to go so really handy not to have to wait for 30 minutes - 1 hour for it to heat up. Washing machine and dryer available to use, just need to bring some washing tabs / liquid. Plenty of toilet roll, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash available to use, as well as kitchen towel and cleaning products to keep things tidy during our stay. Plenty of spare towels and bed linen available which was appreciated whilst travelling with children. A travel cot and high chair were made available for us to use on request. It was a fantastic base to explore the golden circle, the secret lagoon and all that South Iceland has to offer - we even managed a day trip to Jokulsarlon ice lagoon and the diamond beach (four hours away), with a couple of stops along the way. The local pool in Selfoss, recommended by Elín, was a hit with the children, especially the slides, diving boards, and indoor pool. The adults loved it too - we would recommend it! And finally the pre-arrival information was really helpful. Elín & Börkur were very patient and on hand to help with anything we needed during our stay. We will definitely be back, thank you!
