Stayed for New year. In the middle of nowhere. Felt like we were on the moon. Geothermal pool and sauna were great. And northern lights bar very smart.
This eco-friendly hotel, 30 minutes’ drive from Reykjavik, is surrounded by nature in the town of Ölfus.

Great place for family vacations involving horseback riding, but also a great place to spend some quiet time and decompress. We used it to recover from jet-lag for a couple of days. Breakfast was fabulous. Dinners were also great, albeit expensive.
The Greenhouse hotel has 7 restaurants and a bar in its food hall, Icelandic designer stores, Icecream and a local food market.

I was hoping for a lot of cool plants but the vast majority were fake! The concept was cool. The food was DELICIOUS and the vibes was nice! It was good that they included tickets to the local pool.

Staff was really nice
We enjoyed the restaurant
There was a cute cat that entered our room
It’s a perfect base for exploring the golden circle and the south coast. There is only 4.3 mi to Hveragerdi and Selfoss, cities with a wide range of shops and restaurants.

The property was lovely- well maintained and easy enough to find. The room was as expected- we enjoyed a nice warm shower and comfy beds! Staff were very friendly as well. Would recommend!

Everything you want and need from a getaway guesthouse/apartment, not too far from Reyjavik. Easy to access all the south coast stops without the hassle of the city traffic. The apartment was cozy and separate from their other units, which were also very nice, but this one was perfect for a couple. The hosts made every accommodation request we had and even let us use their vacuum for our airtight clothes bags! Very charming and overall what a great place to stay while visiting the Icelandic scenery.

The place was lovely, very quiet in the middle of the nature.
Very short drive to Selfoss (less than 10min) and very easy to access.
We got lucky and saw the northen lights :)
Thank you to Sabine for preparing the room before the storm ;-)
Stunning location in the national park with fantastic views out of the hotel. Bedrooms are super stylish and mine had a great view as well. The thermal pool was amazing and ideal to relax in after a busy day of activities. Hotel is very close to hiking trails and the staff were welcoming and happy to help with any questions.
Having read some of the reviews on here before the stay i was slightly concerned as to how it would be but it honestly exceeded my expectations hugely both on the quality of the accommodation and also the setting.
Although we did not get to see the Northern Lights (which is why I booked this hotel), we very much enjoyed our stay! The scenery on the drive to the hotel is spectacular (if not a little scary if you're in wind/rain/snow), and the hotel is very, very cool! We enjoyed getting into the warm geothermal pool and sitting in the Northern Lights lounge after dinner. The food is fantastic and the staff was more hospitable than anywhere else we had experienced on our 10-day trip.
Isolated location with great facilities (geothermal pool and sauna looking out to the hills). The staff were accommodating with transferring us to their hotel in Reykjavik. Not only that, the hotel in Reykjavik messaged us on WhatsApp if there was an early check in available (which there was). They went above and beyond with our situation. If you are travelling in winter, make sure you have logistics organised or know how to drive in their tough conditions.
Probably the best hotel I have ever been to! both the location and the hotel were incredible. We got a room with very nice views. The pool has hot water and is very relaxing after a day of walking. The restaurant is fantastic and not too expensive in comparison to other places in Iceland. We were attended by a really friendly waitress who made our dinner very pleasant and enjoyable. thank you! if I come back to Iceland I will definitely come back
The design and modern architecture of this hotel was stunning, as was the scenery it was set against. I am not sure I can think of a cooler hotel I have ever stayed in. I loved the stilts and the spa that my son and I layed in at night watching the stars and hoping for the northern lights. The double ceiling bar was also super cool. The food was exceptional and were the cocktails. Staff were super friendly.
fantastic location with amazing views of snowy mountains that could be enjoyed while Kyiv in bed thanks to the massive bedroom window. The thermal pool is fantastic and is open until 11pm so we really enjoyed sitting out looking at the stars. We ate lunch in the restaurant which was simple and delicious. a really special place to stay and we will be back!
The reception staff were very helpful (and super helpful when our hire car door locks froze open) check in was smooth and facilities are lovely. Hotel was very empty when we went so we had the lounge to ourselves (but with no staff serving any drinks at all) The hot pool was great fun and would be amazing on a clear night. Room was warm and comfortable
Very cool hotel, just like the photos. We were greeted by friendly staff and were offered a welcome drink. The room was a nice size, no issues there. We enjoyed the hot pool as well. We loved the northern lights wake up call option, the hotel staff called in the middle of the night to tell us northern lights were visible! A nice little service!
Absolute dreamy stay at the Ion adventure hotel. We only stayed one night and made good use of the spa and restaurant. This is the most relaxed I’ve been in a long time, with the cosy rooms, relaxed staff and stunning countryside views. Had a little walk around the area too and wish we’d stayed longer to make the most of the local hikes.
The hotel is very well equipped in terms of facilities and most amenities, with the staff being very friendly and helpful at all times. The breakfast and dinner meal options are generally very good and the Northern Lights bar is a highlight. Finally, our room was absolutely fine - comfortable bed, very clean and well equipped bathroom.
Complete luxury. Sauna and pool are incredible, attention to detail is impeccable. Location is incomparable, we even got a beautiful snowfall! Do yourself a favor and visit the bartender for a Fury of Iceland and food recommendations for Reykjavik, you won't be disappointed!
Very cool location, and the hotel itself is just really cool! The bar area is very nice to sit and have a drink, and the spa pool and sauna area is gorgeous! I loved the decoration and the front desk staff were very helpful and nice.
The hotel was lovely and comfortable. A few staff were surly, otherwise, everyone was very nice. Seems those who came here to work from another country were more polite.
Outdoor geothermal pool and the location of the property.
Seeing aurora from the hotel was highlight!
Staff went above n beyond to make us feel comfortable!
