Reviews of Hotel Glymur 4*
This was BY FAR the WORST hotel we have ever stayed at. The owner must have asked relatives to write any positive review. There is NO manager on property at night, so if you need anything, be prepared to ask the bartender. The regular rooms are disgusting, filthy, old and have rust everywhere. The worst part is there is NO FOOD unless you happen to make a reservation for dinner before you go. AND the water smells like egg (sulfur) which, although told this was normal. We did not experience any where else in Iceland. It was so bad that we had to switch rooms and even that did not help. RUN AWAY! It is not worth it! The owner should be embarrassed. The villas may be beautiful, but there has been NO MONEY put into the regular hotel since last century.
Very interesting hotel. The original owner furnished it with furniture in the common areas with pieces from around the world. The rooms are split level with the beds upstairs and a cozy seating area below with a counter to sit at if you need desk space. The fridge was also handy if you needed to keep something cold. It is out of the town in country so very quiet with nice views. Recommended!

Not a 4 star hotel anymore. It used to be one for sure but it needs more TLC. We definitely overpaid when we booked 2 months ago. Today's price is more than half what I just paid. Today price of about $160 a night is fair but I paid $337, which is unfair. That's why I give 1 star. I would give 3 but some of the reviews are definitely rigged.
