It is, as are most things in Iceland, expensive for what you get. There is little central lighting. Though half the year it is light until almost 11pm they do not have blackout curtains. Phone was flashing and broken. Room alarm went off for 10 seconds every time I walked in the door.

The convenience factor is what matters here; 3 min walk to airport; free parking if you want to check in then return car later and head out for the evening to dinner or blue lagoon; room was nice enough with a view of the runway (ask for an even number room). Unfortunately the bed was not very comfortable (lumpy, ?old) and no hooks or towel racks at all in the bathroom except for one right beside the toilet (yuck) despite there being lots of free wall space for same! This seems pretty basic.

This hotel is very convenient for flying out of KEF, but I’m not sure if the convenience is worth a cold shower.

At check in, I was told I’d received a complimentary upgrade to a “superior room.” Unfortunately, the room had no refrigerator, the hair dryer had a burnt tip and smelled like it was burning while I used it, and at 4am while getting ready for a flight, I discovered there was no hot water.

The hotel later said I should have called to change rooms, as if getting dressed, packing all my belongings, and moving rooms at 4 a.m. before a flight was a reasonable solution. The third party booking company contacted the hotel about the issue, but I still did not receive a refund.

Had it not been for the cold shower, I probably would have given this hotel 4 stars. Unfortunately, for a $450 room, the lack of hot water and the response afterward were unacceptable.

We picked the Aurora for our last night in Iceland because of the easy access to the airport. We had an early flight. The airport is an easy walk across the drive to the terminal entrance. Being an airport hotel they have double windows to control the jet noise.

This was a great spot to stay for a short layover. The staff was helpful and easy to communicate with before I arrived. It was easy to make arrangements to store my luggage before check in. They added breakfast to my stay as a courtesy. It may not have been the most luxurious hotel but it was clean and quiet. The showers were hot and refreshing after an exhausting day. And the convenience of staying steps away from the airport for an early morning flight is priceless.

Nice and convenient to the airport for our late-night arrival. It was a little hard to find even though it wasn't dark out. The room was adequate however the bed was uncomfortable. It was two twins pushed together and there was no padding for the crack. The comforters were thin so difficult to feel adequately covered/warm. The shower spewed water everywhere leaving the floor very wet. The included breakfast was good. Overall, it is an adequate hotel however the cost is so high the value is lacking.

We stayed here as an overnight on our way home. Our flight came in at 2 AM and we had a 15 hour layover. We were able to walk over to the hotel (still daylight this time of year) without issues and we were checked in and in our room quickly. We had the buffet breakfast which was diverse and very good. All the staff were very pleasant. Check out is noon, which was nice for our schedule. Made the long overnight layover very pleasant!

Very clean hotel! Friendly staff especially Ismiel at the front desk. The breakfast was amazing with healthy choices and delicious pastries. The restaurant was also fantastic. There are no ice machines so you do have to get ice from the bar. The beds were comfortable, and the bathrooms were sparkling clean. There are no thermostats in the room so you have to open a window if you want air but I think this is common for hotels in Iceland. I recommend staying here. Walking distance minutes from the airport so you avoid the expensive cab fees.

The hotel is located conveniently close to the airport, within walking distance. A couple of things took us by surprise, such as that their lounge doesn't open till 4pm, and breakfast is only available if you prebook with reception, or have it included with your room reservation. The restaurant is also only open for dinner.

Otherwise the staff were friendly and helpful, the room and facilities were clean, and we enjoyed dinner in the restaurant on our final day in Iceland.

The location was ideal for our early departure but, sadly, the hotel was lacking in several areas. The room was hot and we couldn't control the temperature without opening the window (not ideal at an airport), the curtains were not blackout so the room was bright all night (land of the midnight sun), the TV channels were unwatcheable (interference/poor reception), we wanted a snack but the restaurant/bar did not accommodate this and we noticed that several guests walked over to the terminal building to eat. And, finally (and worse of all) the shower was only luke warm so we were unable to shower. So, overall, we were very disappointed.

We planned Aurora because we wanted to spend time in Reykjavik but due to time constraints we didn’t make the trip. Be aware that Reykjavik is up to 1 hr each way. Also know that even if you have a connecting flight you have to go through additional customs once you get to Iceland and what they allow is different from the UK. They will also measure and weigh your luggage so make sure your carry on meets the restrictions.

We had a late flight into Keflavik, so staying at this hotel was super convenient. It's walkable from the terminal, and this allowed us to pick up our rental car the next day to save some money. The beds were not that comfortable, and we were given one pillow each. No washcloths. The room was quite big. Our bathroom had a walk-in shower with tiled floor that we found challenging, but the water was warm! Breakfast is not complimentary. The food selection for breakfast was good.
