It's highly modern, with a spacious lobby, big rooms, and a stylish outdoor hot tub right next to the marina. All rooms have ocean and mountain views, and all guests have access to their hot tubs and sauna.
You don’t need a boat to reach the gorgeous town of Siglufjordur. It is one of Iceland’s hidden gems, slightly off the beaten track but easily reachable by car. It is situated on Trollaskagi (Troll Peninsula) in the north of Iceland, not far off from Akureyri, Iceland's 'Capital of the North'.

Hotel chains in Iceland
There are a few hotel chains in Iceland. Foss hotels have 12 hotels around the country. The newest one, Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon, is a 4-star hotel that opened in 2016 in a gorgeous location close to Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon. Another one of our favorites is Fosshotel Vatnajokull, which has a great view of the stunning Vatnajokull glacier.
Another chain is Berjaya Iceland hotels, with a total of 13 hotels dotted around the country. Our favorite is the hotel by the harbor in Reykjavik called Reykjavik Marina hotel, a stylish hotel in a beautiful setting. Note that breakfast is not included in the prices at Berjaya Iceland hotels but can be purchased when you book.
KEA hotels have a total of 8 hotels around the country, thereof 5 in Reykjavik, 2 in Akureyri, and one by Lake Myvatn. The KEA hotel in Akureyri has a perfect central location, right next to the iconic church and the ever-so-popular Akureyri swimming pool. However, our favorite has to be the historic Hotel Borg, opened in 1930 by Icelandic wrestler Johannes Josefsson, it has retained its beautiful art deco style with a great location by Austurvollur square. If you want to treat yourself to a great meal in Iceland, check out nearby Apotek restaurant as well.
Center hotels have 6 different hotels, all in Reykjavík. For a stay in Reykjavík, any of the Center hotels are a good option as they are all centrally located, and stylish, but still good value for money. Check out the Ský Lounge Bar at Center Hotel Arnarhvoll for the best view of the Northern Lights from Reykjavik city, as it is situated high up above the streetlights.
Edda hotels are Iceland's oldest summer hotel chain, now with 11 hotels around Iceland. The hotels are only open during summertime, and most of them close in mid-August.
The chain hotels are mostly good value no matter which hotel you pick. The newer hotels are more stylish, are more likely to be 4-star hotels, and may have more amenities, such as spas or gyms. The older hotels are cheaper and have a certain quirky charm about them.
Luxury Hotels in Iceland
The general emphasis of luxury hotels in Iceland is on the surrounding nature. Even the most luxurious hotels in Iceland won’t offer much more than friendly service, a good restaurant, and bar, comfortable and clean rooms that are en-suite, continental or buffet breakfast, and possibly a pool, spa and/or sauna. Perhaps even a small gym.
So if you’re used to a 5-star hotel luxury, take note that your Icelandic luxury will be a bit more rustic, wild, and intimate. There won’t be multiple pools or restaurants anywhere or champagne breakfasts. Some hotels may not have the possibility to get breakfast in bed. Some may not even have room service. Others may only have shared bathrooms. They’re pretty much self-service. And you can forget about a pillow or a duvet menu!
On the other hand, many hotels are family-run, and they strive to provide you with good and friendly service. Many new restaurants are popping up that use fresh Icelandic and local ingredients, and most hotels in the countryside are ideally situated, surrounded by stunning nature.
Iceland is rich in minerals and hot springs, and if the hotel doesn’t boast its own spa, it may be situated very near one. Whereas most hotels don’t have a gym, they may have a nearby mountain to climb or various hiking trails. Or horses on-site to go horseback riding. And Reykjavik’s hotels compete with each other in good design, good restaurants, and cocktail bars.
On top of that, many hotels have their own cute and quirky charm that you can see in small details.
For a romantic getaway break, you might also want to look into booking your own personal countryside cabin. Icelandic summer cabins, or cottages, can be found all over the country, varying in amenities and luxury. Many of them have a hot tub and are situated in amongst the spectacular nature, tranquil and secluded. There's no better way to enjoy the Northern Lights than from your own hot tub, far away from any light pollution - it really is the best seat for the show!
