Ekra Glacier Lagoon
Guest House in Gerdi

Excellent
3-Star Guest HouseSummary of reviews related to the '3 Star' categoryEkra Glacier Lagoon offers a unique self-service lodging experience nestled in a breathtaking location, perfect for those seeking a cozy retreat with stunning mountain and ocean views. Though the accommodation might resemble an Airbnb in its self-check-in system, guests are provided with a code in advance to access their rooms. This lack of a traditional reception can make it challenging to seek assistance when needed, aligning with the broader trend among Icelandic hotels.

The accommodation delivers a basic level of comfort suitable for short stays, yet it may not meet the needs of families with young children due to limited amenities like a microwave and outdoor spaces. While some guests have encountered temporary issues, such as disruptions in water supply, these were resolved promptly. It's important to note that dining options in the vicinity are scarce, requiring some planning ahead for meals.

Overall, the setting of Ekra Glacier Lagoon remains its strongest allure, offering scenic tranquility that appeals to those eager to immerse themselves in Iceland's natural beauty, despite a price that some may find steep for the services offered.

Summary of reviews related to the '3 Star' categoryHali Country Hotel is described as a comfortable and practical choice in the Skaftafell area, featuring friendly and helpful staff along with clean, spacious rooms. The establishment offers a decent experience with facilities that meet three-star expectations, though some aspects such as decorations and furniture could benefit from updating. Guests appreciate the good rates compared to competition, despite some feeling the price-quality ratio could be improved. The on-site restaurant serves a fair selection of meals, although portions are kept moderate to contain costs and dinner prices were considered high by a few.

The location is well-regarded, being close to attractions and the staff's friendliness earns frequent praise. However, the hotel has an old-fashioned charm reminiscent of a youth hostel and the furnishings are somewhat outdated. Basic amenities are available, including tea and coffee throughout the day, but the overall decor feels somewhat tired and in need of a refresh.

For the budget-conscious traveler, Hali Country Hotel offers good value, especially considering free parking and an overall clean, very pleasant environment. However, those seeking more luxurious accommodations may find it lacking. Despite some minor drawbacks like low water pressure, basic room amenities and occasional light pollution affecting northern lights viewing, the hotel is functional and appropriate for a night's stay on a journey. With average value for money, this hotel suits travelers looking for a straightforward and reasonably priced accommodation option in the area.
