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.

Big very nice rooms. Well planed and nicely designed. It gave me a home feelingI. I could easy “live there’. Great place to stay many days at and use as a base to travel around in the area. Nice big swiming pool and table tennis.

Great location to tour the Golden Circle. Convenient to have a restaurant downstairs and a grocery store within walking distance. Host was very personable and helpful.
Hveragerdi is like the story of Goldilocks - not too far...
Hveragerdi is like the story of Goldilocks - not too far away from the major cities and airport in KEF / Reykjavik. Not too remote nor too busy. Plenty of dining options and bars and yet not crowded. Not too quiet nor too bright with city lights. Almost the perfect spot if you want to explore anything in Thingvellir National Park. And, close enough to some easily accessible spots if you are hunting for the elusive Northern Lights.
Reasons to stay at Hveragerdi: 1) You just landed in Iceland and don't want to drive too far fighting jet lag. (2) You want to have a base for exploring Thingvellir / Golden Circle (3) You want to step away from the busy Reykjavik and also have options for restaurants, bars and bakeries (4) You want to stay at a spot not too far from KEF airport to catch a flight the next day
Reasons not to stay at Hvergerdi: (1) Your main points of interest are farther south and southeast Iceland (Vik / Jokulsarlon / Hofn) or farther west and north Iceland (Snaefellsness / Western fjords / Akureyri)

A great base to explore South West Iceland, the Golden Circle, and other sights. The little town is easily walkable. We ate at Matkráin which was recommended in the information pack at our accommodation and were not disappointed by the Danish smørrebrød. We also tried The Greenhouse which had a really good atmosphere and is set up as a food hall.

Fantastic little hamlet with a dash of everything Iceland has to offer including hot springs, geysers, nature trails, waterfalls, swimming pools, warm lagoons, etc. The geothermal park was an unique and amazing experience.
We had an amazing time!

The location is good at the beginning of South Iceland.
The location is good at the beginning of South Iceland. Everything we wanted to see was within 1h 40min drive. Still the small town has a big shop and the basic services that smaller places further out don't have (except Selfoss)

This location was truly magical.
This location was truly magical. It was quiet but close enough to amenities. The walks around our hotel were beautiful, including the walk to the village. Nearby you can do the mega zipwire and the hike to the hot river. We really enjoyed both of these activities. The town of Selfoss is busier and has some great restaurants, it's around 10 minute drive. We also visited the Lava Tunnel which is about 15 minutes away. However, this was pricey for what it was. Be prepared to spend quite a bit of money as Iceland is expensive.

Great place to visit.
Great place to visit. Excellent hike to hot springs and geo thermal river for bathing - wasn't spoilt by being busy.
Are out one night at the pizza and brewery in town which was reasonably priced, delicious pizza and lively atmosphere.
A very smart hotel with comfortable rooms and beds. Good facilities, including swimming pool, table tennis and pool table. Breakfast was included in our room rate and was good. We had an evening meal in the hotel restaurant which was superb but expensive (by UK standards). The hotel is opposite an indoor food market with restaurant and shop. Nearby is a small shopping centre with supermarket, pharmacy and bakery. Easy drive to Selfoss and the Golden Circle.
Amazing hotel, very nice vibe, great location for visiting the Reykjadalur geothermal park. The hotel room was very comfortable and is equipped with all the necessary amenities. The hotel has got a food court with 5 different restaurants, a bar and a cafe. There is also a very nice shop where you can buy souvenirs. The staff is also very friendly and helpful. I would really recommend this hotel and I would definitely stay here again.
- very clean. the picture looked old fashioned so I was expecting something… different. but incredibly clean!
- cozy atmosphere inside the hotel, due to the « relaxing corner » with coffee and tea, the kindness of the staff, the fact all rooms are on level 0 so everything is uncomplicated
- easy to find, right by the road
- quite
- the restaurant is very good and not so expensive for icelandic standards
The apartment was spacious and beautifully designed - apparently one of the owners is a well known interior designer and she has demonstrated her talents with these apartments. Lots of additional touches such as bathrobes, extra towels and flip flops for the hot tubs and steam room. We stayed in some lovely hotels in Iceland but this was the best value and extremely comfortable.
The hotel is very easy to find, on the main street in Hveragerdi. We stayed here on our last night in Iceland, on our way back to the airport. The main reason was the proximity of the Reykjadalur Hot Springs River. We were even lucky to see the northern lights just outside the hotel. Really liked the food court downstairs with their take-away stands. Food was very good.
Our favourite accommodation during our stay in Iceland (and we stayed in 9 different places!). Very comfortable, excellent facilities, and exceptionally decorated - it's very telling that the owner is an interior designer. Well placed for the Golden Triangle and Hveragerði is well served for eateries etc.
The hotel is designed and planned beautifully. I liked the functionality and design. Staff were super friendly and happy to help. Room was clean and inviting. The restaurants at the bottom floor and the ice cream! Shower was great too. Liked that they offered free pass to the pool.
Friendly staff. Warm and cozy room. The view is just like no where else on earth. Below Hot springs and under northern lights at the right time. Just amazing.
Even though the restaurant is separate to the hotel it was very accommodating given the 2 menu choices available.
Loved the location - gorgeous hot tub looking at the River and thermal vents on the hills. Let us check in after hours, we’re available for questions after hours, towel rental for thermal River hike, (trailhead was 6 min drive from hotel) friendly staff. comfortable beds.
The steam bath! That's a once in a lifetime experience. The water is literally boiling under your feet.
The northern lights were visible the night we stayed at the hotel, but it's better to drive out of the town to see the lights stronger.
owner faced an overbooking challeng and provided an instant alternative in a nearby costly hotel. a great room waited for us without need to add more payment.
thank you for true quality service especialy in the face of such a challenge
Reception staff, especially Anna, very professional,efficient, friendly, hard working young lady!
Restaurant- dinner menu was limited, but very well prepared, all fresh ingredients, we tryed almost everything, thank you chef!
Room is spacious and a great value. Friendly staff. Decent sound insulation, didn't hear my neighbors. Bathrooms are a little larger than your average European hotel. Breakfast was good, a fairly diverse spread.
Wonderful lady that runs the place. She meet us at the door, checked us in and talked to us for a while about the best times to see the northern lights. Wonderful small cottage without the big hotel experience.
Clean and nice place in Hveragerdi near Reykjadalur Hot Springs. We didn't see anyone from the staff but everything worked out well. Parking by the entrance, keys and door code as instructed.
Clean and comfortable. Good breakfast at the Eldhestar Hotel close by. Perfect place to stay when we were going on a riding tour 9 am. The stable and horses were just out the front door.
