Really nice property. However a really poor experience at the end of our stay spoiled it. Do better ‘The Retreat’.

It wqs very clean, the room was big with private bathroom. No reception but the instructions to get the key and check-in time was very well communicated. Common space with kitchen to share with other guests was clean and nice.

The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The free breakfast was a literal feast. There was so much food and so many options. Dinner the previous evening was very good. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful. Very professional.

beautiful space, rooms are very well done all around (bed, bathroom, design) & the rooftop hot pool with invigorating wind is bliss after long flights — staff are kind & super helpful on arrival, ride to the airport was great for our family & we slept deeply & well & got going with a bit of good coffee in the AM.

Nice assortment of eggs, meats, cheese and bread juices and coffee
Great location 10 minutes from the Blue lagoon. We stayed here on our first night in Iceland going straight from the airport to the Blue lagoon then checked in.
Not a lot here but there’s a pretty church here
Tip: don’t buy supplies in the airport shop - we stocked up & it cost us a fortune. There’s a Netto in Grindavík

Grindavik is a small, beautiful fishing village close to the Geldingadalur volcano (but not too close) and the Blue Lagoon. It has many excellent hiking opportunities and great restaurants. Grindavik is surrounded by a beautiful natural landscape. Whale-watching, fishing, mountaineering, very friendly people, safe environment, you name it, Grindavik has it all!

Great location for Meradalir.
Great location for Meradalir. Fabulous fish and chips at Papas - Grindavik is a fishing town, so all fish is fresh that morning. Lovely walking around the town. Very peaceful. Great for exploring south coast and peninsula. Only 25 mins from Keflavik.

We stopped for one night during our Iceland tour to visit the Blue Lagoon and Fagradalsfjall, the volcano that erupted in 2021 and is still smoldering several months later. Grindavik is a working fishing village with a few local restaurants, grocery store and pharmacy, so is a really good spot to stay for a day when touring Iceland. It is not touristy though so don’t expect lots of shops selling the usual.

Grindavik is a lovely town with a huge fisherman history.
Grindavik is a lovely town with a huge fisherman history. It's super close to the Blue lagoon and volcano so, there are many options for hiking or relaxing. There's a grill place with a super nice man who told me a little about the history and life of Grindavik's people and he also sells awesome hotdogs. Wish I could've stayed longer but a huge storm came so I had to run away :)
Check in process was clunky as no staff was present for assistance. There were no instructions as to check in process. No in-person assistance was available during our stay. The host did answer the phone readily when we called upon arrival. The room was large and well appointed. Accommodations were clean. Only one of the three beds was made up. Grindavik is a small town so location is not an issue.
We have a neutral rating due to not being able to stay here. There was an evacuation for grindavik which ultimately meant we had no accommodation. Both myself and booking.com have tried contacting the property for a refund however we are yet to get any response, it is understandable for the circumstances but would still appreciate being contacted back when possible
We had just discovered that our property was not there anymore and headed to the Hotel Grindavik. The staff was super friendly and prepared us a room in 5 minutes. The room was very large and so was the bathroom: everything with a sea view. The place has a very friendly and familiar atmosphere and a very nice restaurant as well. We were very grateful to the staff
A perfect stay in order to visit the Blue Lagoon and get up early to go to the airport which is only a short drive. A well equipped kitchen means you can buy some food from the supermarket just down the road and cook for yourself. Grindavik itself doesn’t have much else to offer! The owners allowed us to check in early and were very friendly.
it was absolutely glorious! Well presented, spacious, comfortable. Close to a supermarket, The Blue Lagoon and a number of restaurants. It was the perfect base for us to explore Reykjavík, the Golden Circle and the Blue Lagoon. A truly authentic Icelandic experience.
You will not be disappointed if you stay here! it is immaculate.
Loved this house! The husband and wife are super nice and fun to chat with. Right next to a playground and a grocery store. Plenty of dining choices nearby, as well as the blue lagoon. The woodwork was done by the owner, who has a shop downstairs, and they even put some drinks and chocolates in the fridge.
We were pleasantly surprised by this modern, warm and charming hotel! While the restaurant upstairs is very traditional, the hotel rooms are modern. This was THE largest room of all the hotel rooms in which we stayed in Iceland. Added bonus - beautiful original art in the hallway and the room.
Very roomy room with nice facilities, large bathroom, well-equipped kitchen, and plenty of functional space.
Good location and parking out front (Grindavik is very walkable).
Remote check-in/out system worked well, but you need internet access for codes.
Good Iceland value.
The accommodation is situated close to the Blue lagoon (20 min by car). Quiet neighbourhood and parking spot for the car in front of the house. The host was friendly and has recommended us great restaurants nearby. The kitchen is well equipped, the bedroom is big enough and cosy.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Spacious room. Location wise very good of you plan to visit the Blue Lagoon as it's very close (less than 5 minutes drive). Facilities was good, especially the loungue area for hotel guests, there's board games for families to play.
Location was great when going to and from the Volcano and Blue Lagoon. Very convenient with restaurants and supermarket around the corner, and the harbour is just 1min away. The cabin was clean and neatly organised (even the towels and kitchenware were aligned!)
Dagmar and Hjalti are very responsive and friendly. It was convenient for us to stay at Grindavik guesthouse because we had an early flight in the morning. The place is quiet, very clean and comfortable. Lovely place to stay and very hosting landlords.
Super clean and very Scandinavian modern. I loved the location (only 7 minutes from the volcano, which is why I stayed in Grindavik) and incredibly comfortable! I slept for 11 hours the second night I was there...amazing bed and quiet location.
Location was good for us. Easy self check in process. 11am checkout was nice. Room was clean and adequate. Shared kitchen space was also nice if you need it. Really close to Blue Lagoon and the Kef Airport which was great on our travel day out
I’ve travelled to 50 countries in total. Stayed in most 5 stars hotels and one seven star hotel. But this retreat, is just the best hotel/retreat on planet earth. the staff, food, facilities, our room, spa, and everything was just perfect
Great value for money considering how expensive hotels are in Iceland. The staff were really lovely, we had a small issue with our room and they came and sorted it out immediately.
Perfect place for watching the live volcano. Btw the name has changed to Volcano Hotel. One complain was there was no hot water in my after coming back from hiking at midnight,🥲
