We had donner and breakfast at the hotel. The dinner menu was limited as it was out of season but the beefburger was nice. Breakfast was good. Only reason I gave it 3 stars as it was really noisy. A number of cars parked in front of reception and I was awoken at 1am by a bunch of noisy people having snow ball fights and making alot of noise. They were there for a really long time.

Our stay here was fantastic. The owner was wonderful and helpful and the dinner was delicious. We stayed here on our last night in Iceland and it was the perfect spot. We saw the Northern Lights and it's right near a beautiful waterfall. They have a troll walk you can do around the property which features different troll games. I don't have kids but if i did this would be a great spot for them. They had a basketball hoop and a cabin full of games, etc. Highly recommend!

An absolutely amazing local hotel, restaurant, and campground. Everyone at the hotel was friendly, courteous, and helpful, and we loved every aspect of our time (two nights - wish it could have been longer). The food at the Rock-n-Troll pub was excellent and the views of the surrounding natural beauty were peaceful and magnificent. 6 stars out of 5 (and no, I'm not being paid for this review)

The property is in a beautiful location right above the troll, but is pretty dated. Ratty towels and old beds and rooms, might be a good place for a family looking for a deal. The trolls and rock ‘n’ roll theme were a little off, but again fun for kids. Nice to have a hot tub with geothermal water at the end of the day, but there were no views and bright lights in the hot tub area, not very relaxing. Breakfast was decent.

Cozy country lodging

Ok, this is a \"country\" hotel. It is more like cabin buildings with multiple rooms per each building. The room was clean and comfortable with heated floor in the bathroom....nice. This hotel also has a cooking area in case you wanted to prepare your own meals along with a restaurant (which we did not eat at). It was comfortable and cozy and the small waterfall in the back of the reception building was nice.

We chose this hotel for its location, in the middle of nowhere, to see the Northern Lights and we achieved our goal, we just walked behind our room and it was dark enough to enjoy the lights. The hotel is surrounded by nature, there is a nice waterfall that you can enjoy from the restaurant of the hotel and a trail. Close by there are more waterfalls, all of them beautiful.

If you don't stay at this hotel while in Iceland you are missing a gem! It is located in the country, but not far from village amenities. The property is surrounded by walking trails and is perched on the side of a river with rushing water and falls. The restaurant serves a great dinner too! WE had traditional Icelandic fish and lamb. The rooms were cozy and the hot tub was a delight. Plenty of parking. There are also little camping cabins. The staff were friendly and responsive.

What a great property, they have a cute walking trail all about trolls. Dinner was very good and so was breakfast. The staff were very nice. The spas could be a bit hotter, but we loved our stay here. We couldn't get into one of the pods, which I thought would be fun, but very happy with where we stayed.

Our favorite of the 6 properties we stayed at when touring Iceland. Located by a river with a small falls. Beautiful sunset. Dinner from the restaurant was very good. We also liked the troll garden.

Great place to stay in Iceland. We were fortunate to be in room #1 with the best view. Included breakfast is totally worth it.

We had an amazing stay! Staff was super nice and very helpful.
Property itself had a lot to offer. Nature around it was amazing, we even saw aurora borealis there. It has an amazing story inspired by trolls, which gives another dimension to the surroundings. All in all, we highly recommend it. 🤗

Great staff. Really nice spot for Northern lights. About 20-30 minutes from nearest town. The smell of the sheep nearby and creep in with the wind, not there fault. Enjoyed there breakfast very much.

The hotel has a restaurant attached, we arrived pretty late, tired and hungry. The owner actually got us something to eat even though the restaurant was closed. We sat and chatted with the owner telling us about the area and the Hotel. The Rock N Troll restaurant has much symbolism. The owner even wrote a children’s book about the trolls for sale in many languages. The owner even signed one for us. The site is on a waterfall that was outside our room, be sure to look for the troll when sitting for breakfast, he resides in the side of the rocks. There is a great spot to view the northern lights as well if the timing is right.

The area around the hotel is beautiful, and we wished we had more time to explore the trails. We booked two cabins (two couples) and both were comfortable. The cabin was equipped with kettle, fridge and even a microwave. There was also a heated towel rack. The breakfast selection was adequate.

Amazing stay. We were there for one night whilst travelling up north. I called as we’d arrive after check in closed. It was no issue. He told me my accommodation room number and I was open for our arrival with the keys left inside. Lovely, clean accommodation with really comfy beds. If I was coming back I’d certainly book a couple of nights here

Highly recommended

Typical Country Hotel with each room having its own access to outside. Lots of 'Troll' information and trails overlooking a beautiful waterfall. Food was good and very reasonably priced, and the excellent breakfast was good quality - the first time we have had real sliced ham for breakfast instead of pre-formed, fruit was very fresh, warm bread etc. Facilities were very good, access to well equipped kitchen if you wanted to self cater (as well as the fridge and microwave in the bedroom) and showers and toilets for campers and hot tub users were very clean and comfortable. Excellent value stopover with everything you need.

Good location to see the northern lights

We stayed here for one night on our trip round the ring road. This would be a good location for northern light spotting if the weather was right.
Our room was overlooking the waterfall and had everything you would expect including a mini fridge and TV.
There are hot tubes on site and troll walks.
There were no evening meals when we stayed, but we were given access to a self catering kitchen and took advantage for the free breakfast the next morning.
