Enjoyed my stay here. The hotel is located in a quiet residential neighborhood that’s located close to the airport. I also really liked the on-site kitchen as it was very well stocked with a microwave, refrigerator, stove, kitchen utensils etc.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was nice but very small (the bathroom was mini size but is sufficient) with a very good bed and pillow. No TV but a tablet was available to browse the internet. The location is a little strange, on the edge of a industrial park. We were concerned about this when we drove up to the hotel but the nights were very quiet and it is close to the airport which was the main reason for us to choose this hotel.

Location is convenient to the airport and well placed as a base for exploring Iceland. The room was spacious and comfortable and the shared kitchen is well equipped and conveniently located to the rooms. The managers were friendly and helpful. In short, a great find. We would certainly go there again.

Not the best.

This is not a hotel in the usual sense. Rooms are very small and sparse. No grocery store that we can see. Only one small restaurant nearby. Too simple for my tastes. Would never stay here again. Overpriced.

Liked the community kitchen… great for eating take out as a family.. the room was nice… beds cozy and parking was spacious and readily available…. Poor communication on how to take advantage of the paid breakfast also appeared to have a hot tub but not filled or open… tried to get our room made after the first night but not certain how to make that happen. The local restaurant called Kim Yongs wings was great for takeout and the owner was very personable

A Gem of a Place!!!

This is a jewel of a place. Lovely rooms with super hospitable owners. Very clear instructions sent ahead to us. Very comfortable beds, extremely clean, with attention paid to details. A wonderful spot to land on our last night before we board a flight to leave Iceland. Would highly recommend.

We have a great experience stay at the newly built hotel. It is clean, quite. The host is very kind and give us warm welcome. He helped me doing the laundry late in the night. This is definitely a good choice before flight out Iceland.

The place is small, simple and clean. Plenty for 1 or 2 people. It’s a nice property in a quiet location for a good price. There are no shops or restaurants in Vogar; but presumably if you’re thinking of staying here you have a car, and Keflavik and Reykjavik are a short drive away, so you just need to plan ahead. All nice with good communication.

We booked a single night here to recover from jetlag after a transatlantic flight, and have been longing for the soft beds and weighted blankets every day since checking out. In the span of a week here in Iceland, we've checked into half a dozen emergency hotels (our car camping plan has been roundly defeated), and none of them compare to the delightful aesthetic, luxurious comfort, or detailed amenities of Arctic Wind. My wife checked for open rooms here every time we stopped for the night anywhere on the island's Southwest corner.

A fantastic place to stay.

Communication from the property was exceptional. I knew everything I need to know and queries were responded to rapidly. The property is exactly what is need and as described. A perfect place to stop over for the night , a kitchen and hot tub! Everything in the room needed to fix a hot drink. The bed was very comfortable and I enjoyed a good nights sleep. Located a few minutes from the main road you can’t beet the convenience. There is a small store across the road and a lovely walk around the harbour wall just down the street.
