Additional Information
Around 2 hour drive from Reykjavik. 3 hours from Keflavik Airport. The geography of the local area makes the hotel a hotspot for seeing the Northern Lights. Some local roads can be treacherous so a 4 wheel drive is highly recommended. Hotel staff were able to arrange in advance a shower chair with wheels (pictured) for our stay.
