We just stayed at this hotel, and we cannot understand all the great recent reviews. Sadly, we followed these reviews and made the mistake of staying here. Let me describe in detail our experience (we just checked out this morning): 1- This is a large hotel, by Iceland standards, with barrack-like housing. The pictures might look charming on the Internet,... More

The hotel was our base for two nights while we explored the south coast. It was very comfortable and we enjoyed the breakfast and the buffet dinner also. It's just a couple of kilometers from Vik so it's easy to visit Vik's grocery store, restaurants, and beautiful beach.

We chose this hotel as it was in the middle of things we wanted to do on our trip to Iceland. During the booking process, I had accidentally entered the month as April, not May, so I was surprised to receive a call at home from the hotel checking if we were still coming! After the error was explained, they... More

Absolutely loved our two night stay at hotel Katla. The rooms were huge with a large en suite facility. They had great black out curtains (which is ideal in Iceland and something which is missed in many places!). There was plenty of car parking available with great wifi facilities. The breakfast was a large buffet style set up with a... More

Stayed here in March 2013 as part of a small group on a photography holiday/workshop. We arrived late but the staff were very flexible and an evening meal was noty a problem. It was good food too! Huge buffet breakfast. Large clear rooms with tea mnaking facilities which were eventually found in the wardrobe. I'd be happy to stay here... More

Great room, great service and great food! We are just spending one night here on our way east. All the facilities have a good standard, and you can even fish in the hotels own trout ponds ( if you have your own rods, unfortunately we didnt). Overall a good experience.

When we drove up I thought I had made a mistake booking this hotel but was most definitely proved wrong. The staff were so friendly and so willing to be helpful. Lovely! The room was large and so was the bed with lovely linen and decent 'sun shutting out' curtains, with TV (some English speaking) and tea/coffee making facilities but... More

To be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect from the hotel when we booked, however, I will say that it topped all of my expectations and ended up being a real gem! Our room was large and clean with a comfy bed and the service was really great. The restaurant serves great food ( they didn't have a huge... More

We arrived at this hotel really late because we were stuck on the westman islands. The reception was super nice about it and even had the closed kitchen make us some food. She also suggested some places we should go. The hotel is a little outside vik so we thought we had missed it. They gave us a really nice... More
