What Our Guests Say
Real reviews from real travellers
"I planned to stay 1 night but stayed 3 in the end. The staff was really friendly, the kitchen was so well equipped, the hot tub was amazing, the rooms and showers very clean. Perfect base for the Golden Circle!"
"The dorm doesn't have bunk beds so your sleep won't be interrupted. Bathrooms are beautifully designed. The kitchen has so much equipment. The hot pool in the garden — free for all guests — was my personal highlight!"
"Lovely room, lovely staff, excellent location, very good value. The kindness and professionalism of the staff stood out. Facilities very clean, modern and nicely decorated. I definitely recommend."
