Wonderful

We made a last min booking here and could not have been happier we did! Highly recommend this very special place to visitors. Originally we had plans to head to the city. This was a much much better move after landing coming to relax and unwind in the lagoon region. The hotel staff was attentive and super helpful. Loved it.
This location is very close to the blue lagoon. The staff is friendly and very helpful. The rooms are comfortable and clean as is the entire hotel with wonderful spaces to enjoy a drink or play some board games.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Property was sterile and barren. Staff was great. Breakfast great. Restaurant great.
We enjoyed our visit to the Northern Light Inn. Convenient location for the Blue Lagoon. The hotel is really nice and a breakfast buffet is included. The only minor con is its right next to the Geothermal Power plant. Not the biggest deal just a strange view to have from your hotel. But with that said we would stay there again for sure.
The hotel and restaurant are excellent. As you drive to the property you can see portions of the Blue Lagoon. Just amazing. The only downside is the strong sulfur smell. I have not seen this comment that often in posts about the Blue Lagoon. It may be stronger now because of the recent volcanic activity that has been going on. We did not notice this smell anywhere else during our travels in Iceland this visit.
Very nice family room with a fantastic breakfast buffet. Nice location for visiting the Blue Lagoon and very friendly staff. It was halfway from the airport to Reykjavik so easy access with a rental car.
Amazing stay from start to finish, the only bad thing is that I didn't stay here longer! An amazing location right next to the blue lagoon with great views on the doorstep. All the staff from checkin, breakfast and the restaurant were fantastic, war, friendly and very helpful. I will definitely visit again. Max restaurant was amazing too, definitely try it.
15 minute walk to blue lagoon. Right next to a power station. Clean, bright. Was asked to pay in full at check in which seemed odd. Folks leave without paying. Cheapest way to get there from airport is via the blue lagoon bus. Hotel will pick you up from there and drive you 5 mins to hotel.
