Average place. A few things to feedback. 1. Room heater not all functioning. For cold weather this is not good. 2. Kitchen provides dish detergent but no sponge for washing. Hope in future can provide. 3. TV only has one working channel. Not sure why there is a need to have a blue Ray dvd player as people doesn't usually travel with dvd. Hope this can improve. 4. Laundry prices varies across whoever is doing reception. We asked the night we arrived and it was 2000 including drying. Next morning we bring over the price is 3000 including drying. Overall stay comfort wise average. Location is good though as we got to see aurora borralis within 100m of the cottage.

Serviced apartment on convenient route near Golden Circle area. Within 1 hour to major sights including Kerid Crater, Thingvellir, Geysir, and Gullfoss. Nice view of the countryside, but far from any restaurants or stores (20+ min) so plan ahead before you return for the night. Apartment itself was recently renovated and felt very new. Kitchen had refrigerator and everything we needed to make our own breakfast. You are texted a code to the door ahead of time which felt a bit sketchy, but very simple upon arrival. Each unit has its own door with a key pad. Towels were replaced during the day. South Central Apartments was our favorite accommodation (and largest, only one with fridge) out of several across Southern Iceland (including 2-3 star hotels).

Wow, solo wow! Cercavamo un posto unico e lo trovavamo. Era sempre un sogno di rimanere in una lampada e penso che fosse abbastanza vicino! Il processo di check-in e check-out era facile, la stanza è comoda e ben attrezzata. Le scale possono essere rumorose, ma essere metalliche all'esterno, comprensibili, il vento può anche essere rumoroso, ma ancora una volta è parte di essere in quel luogo stupendo. Siamo stati fortunati a vedere le strade che abbiamo tutti chiarite, c'era un sacco di ghiaccio nel parco gatto, ma i pneumatici invernali si sono mantenuti bene. La stanza al di sopra della torre offre una vista sorprendente e speciale per i tramonti e le risate, siamo stati molto fortunati a vedere anche le luci settentrionale 😀

I’ve never stayed in a place like this before. We stayed in both bubble hotels, Hrosshagi and Olvisholt. Both experiences were wonderful. A few of things to note… 1. Check in times are 5-8pm. There isn’t someone on site all night. Just be aware that you cannot check in whenever you want. Plan accordingly. 2. This is a very luxurious form of “glamping”. Each bubble doesn’t have its own bathroom. However, there are two heated bathrooms as well as a common area with two more restrooms and two showers. There is a small area with a sink and coffee pot and a table to enjoy breakfast or play games with a group. I’m not particularly interested in being without good accommodations. These were excellent and there was never any issue with the restrooms or showers. 3. Bring crampons/ice spikes. It can be slippery. Now for the good stuff… The bubbles are incredibly comfortable. It was cold when we were there (around 0 C or 32 F). The bubbles are warm and cozy. The beds were comfortable and warm, as well. They have a heated pad on there that you can adjust to make sure you’re warm. The experience was just like nothing else I’ve ever done. I didn’t see the northern lights at this one (I did at the other). But the views were spectacular, nevertheless. I slept incredibly well and made sure to just enjoy the night and the morning. There are several great things to do in the area. It’s not far at all from some fantastic sights- Secret Lagoon, Gullfoss, Bruarfoss, Faxafoss, Kerid Crater. Try the food at Fridheimar and Efstidalur. It was excellent.
