Family Hotels & Resorts in Olafsvellir from NZ$180

"We adored our time at hotel Grimsborgir! I’m a travel advisor from the US & will highly recommend this hotel to my clients. It’s beautiful. We had building 8 all to ourselves, which also meant the hot tub was very private for us. The building was in a great location away from a lot of lights. One thing to note, there are outside building lights that can prevent you from seeing the Aurora. We actually used the blanket on the bed to cover the lights outside & we were able to have an amazing Aurora show two nights in a row! I also want to know that the hotel did not call us to let us know that they were visible, we just so happened to track on the Aurora app & spent time in the hot tub waiting for them. A few guests at breakfast the next morning were pretty upset that they missed them as the hotel did not give them the call they requested. I would highly recommend tracking them yourselves and not relying on the hotel. The rooms are very spacious(deluxe) w/a decent sized refrigerator, a ton of closet space, VERY comfortable beds, great shower + bath products and hot water pressure! The rooms also have a cute little balcony. The community area also had a cooking area and refrigerator with lots of dishes available. There’s also an outside grill so you could totally make your own meals there to save money. The breakfast was outstanding!! Lots of options, But the same repetitive options each day. Totally worth it to stay here to explore the golden circle and south coast. "

"The hot tub and sauna was a nice touch. Good bar and restaurant. "

"I had an amazing stay, I cannot WAIT to go back. No doubt about it all be back"

"Very comfortable hotel. Very helpful and nice staff. Breakfast has a ton of options including more traditional American options (eggs). "

"The cottage was spacious, well appointed and very comfortable. We greatly appreciated the private hot tub on the deck. The staff was professional, service focused and friendly. While we did not eat at the restaurant, we did enjoy some nice evening beverages there."
