Hotel Hamar

We stayed in the bungalow which was very new and clean. It looks exactly as presented in the pictures. Staff were helpful. Breakfast was decent. The bungalows have their own outdoor hot tub and sauna area which was nice. There are about 12 bungalows total (I think), so it could get crowded in that hot tub and sauna when the hotel is busy given they weren’t very big. It seems like a good place to see northern lights, we just didn’t get lucky during our stay. Only downside from our stay was no smart tv (unless we just weren’t able to figure it out), but you can easily plug in an Amazon fire stick. Also, due to some issue, the hot tub was more like a warm tub. We recognize things happen so we won’t let it affect the review, but still disappointing. Overall would recommend

We got upgraded to the deluxe cabins which were fantastic for star gazing and northern lights viewing. The room was big and clean. Only thing is the room was not warm enough even with max heater on. However, it was a very nice experience overall.

Ok

Our room was upgraded to a cabin and it was absolutely amazing. We had access to the hot tube and the sauna and we even saw northern lights. One of my best hotel stay ever

Clean and roomy, breakfast buffet was quite delicious too

Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms are dated and repairs seem to be sub par. Beds are odd and it seems to be impossible to get a true double room vs 2 pushed together (also, short). Location is pleasant outside of town with a good view and porch.

Everything was great

I love this place. When I checked in they give me the option to choice see aurora or close hot tub. They called us for aurora when aurora show up. You don’t need watch by yourself .

The staff were friendly, the room spacious and the meal offerings were comparable to other places we had stayed.

Great location. It was super convenient in relation to the main road. The hotel was clean and tidy. The cabins made for a wonderful stay. Truly a great place to stay.

The room was clean and has everything you need, the shower is the typical European style that has a small piece of glass to prevent the water from splashing outside but it doesn’t work (worst design ever). The staff wasn’t very friendly and seemed a little cold. They didn’t provide much info about the stay/breakfast schedule/hot tub/etc until you asked them. The hot tub wasn’t on at the time of my visit for whatever reason and there was no sign (it was during running schedule). The steam room was off too. The gym room barely has any equipments. The good: - clean - good buffet that was included - near a golf driving range (not very well maintained but it’s not part of the hotel) - near a golf course - has a large parking space The bad: - hot tub and steam room weren’t working - parking lot is very dark at night that makes you feel unsafe - shower is a little weak and a bit dated - front desk staff not very friendly Rating: 3.5/5

Very nice hotel and resort. We have traveled Iceland for a few days. Every hotel has been very nice. Good rooms great breakfast and really nice Is particularly hotel is associated with a golf course. Room had a great view. I would highly recommend staying here. Great place to see the northern lights because it is a couple mile from town

Staff here is amazing. Hotel is very nice and a wonderful breakfast was waiting for us this morning. The young lady at the front desk was particularly kind and helpful.

Great stay at Hamar! The property is well appointed, breakfast was great, and the hot tub and sauna overlooking the golf course and mountains cant be beat. Wonderful place to see the northern lights as its away from the city and the gold course provides great views of the sky.

We stayed two nights (Aug 26 & 27) and booked the Jr. Suite and two luxury cabins (3 rooms), and would suggest either of these two rooms in lieu of the standard smaller rooms. All three rooms were wonderful, very large and overlook the golf course and mountains. The sauna is directly outside the patio of the very private luxury cabins. Natasia & Ines at the front desk are both amazing and go out of their way to make sure everything is perfect. They called us in the middle of the nights to let us know the Northern Lights were out. The restaurant food and staff were excellent. Hotel has a great warm feel to it. Highly recommend the Hotel Hamar!

Beautiful hotel, great staff nice breakfast, Recommend to all!!

Beautiful property on a golf course. Great views of the lake. The rooms were nice. Good food in restaurant. After all travel we picked this hotel for the hot tubs and steam room which were out of order.

There is no sound proofing so you can hear other guests in the hall taking and slamming doors. Not a restful experience.

Definitely will recommend to my friends.

Enjoyed the hot tub and breakfast buffet
