Aurora Lodge Hotel

What guests think

At Aurora Lodge Hotel, travelers highlight the scenic, quiet setting with wide views and good chances to spot the Northern Lights, cozy but often small rooms with views, and consistently friendly, welcoming staff.

Hot tubs with valley views and a relaxed lounge/bar area add to the appeal. Common downsides include thin walls, small bathrooms, and a little wear or minor maintenance issues noted by a few guests. Breakfast is widely praised and several guests enjoyed dinner and drinks, though one guest found breakfast average and another noted limited restaurant service at times. Expect a relaxed, countryside stay well suited to quiet nights and sky watching.

Lovely quiet location. The room was cozy and welcoming. There is a wonderful view of the landscape from the lobby/bar, making it a perfect place to relax with a cocktail in the evening and do some birdwatching in the morning. Great breakfast included.

Enjoyed seeing the amazing view of the Northern Lights every night we were there. First from the hot tub, then above my cabin. The next night from the main lodge! I had an amazing Mojito while I enjoyed the view! The staff were kind, and accommodating, breakfast was very good also. Thank you for a great stay!

The area is okay, but can tell the property is a little bit rundown with creaking floor sound and thin walls. Certain parts of the floor are also rotten and old. Toilet is very small as well. But the reception area is beautiful and the breakfast is the best we had throughout our trip. The staff are rather nice as well.

This hotel was a great find! The location feels so far away and isolated all by itself - the peaceful nature is great yet town is only 5 minutes away. We had room 14 which faced a wide open field and lucky for us, we could see the Northern Lights from our room - our bed, actually! Great to be nice and warm and pop out onto the deck to take photos instead of being out in some random field. The room was very clean and modern - a nice woodsy feel. The only negative would be that the walls are pretty thin - every movement next door sounded like was in your own room. But we were able to get over that given the amazing view and niceness of the property. The breakfast was good - a mix of hot and cold foods and the staff was friendly. Definitely recommend this spot!

L'hotel si raggiunge con un breve tratto di strada non asfaltata, è circondato da prateria e la vista è spettacolare. La stanza è piccola ma confortevole, con ambia doccia e ottimi prodotti da bagno. La colazione è di buona qualità e ricca. Sono anche disponibili due vasche di acqua calda con vista panoramica. E' stata una magnifica esperienza.

When we turned off the road toward the property, we thought our GPS wasn't working. It looked like we were going out into a beautiful, remote area with nothing but views. True, except for the wonderful cabins and main area of this property. Really nice and quiet and remote with beautiful views everywhere. A short drive to local eateries and a great stop on the tour of Iceland
