Absolutely Wonderful - Extended Our Stay

10.0

This was our best accommodation experience during our week in Iceland. We hadn't booked accommodation for our last night and decided to extend at Umi because we loved it so much. The staff were all so warm and welcoming from the manager to the housekeeping team, reception, and the restaurant - and they didn't make me feel bad for breaking a wine glass in our room. Great location for exploring. We especially loved the big breakfast spread, cozy robes and slippers, and we had some fantastic Northern Lights viewings right outside of the hotel. Definitely make it out to the black sand beach while you're there! Thank you Umi team for being a highlight of our honeymoon, we hope to return!

Horses Under the North Lights

10.0

My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights, during which we got engaged. The staff was so lovely, from the front desk keeping champagne cold in our room for our return by changing the ice every half hour, to another staff member point out the Northern Lights, to the head chef presenting us with each dish at the restaurant and his lovely wife, a waitress, sharing stories about Icelandic life with us. The setting is beyond beautiful, and we had horse visitors snuffling at our open window one night. We will never forget how we felt in this magical place.

Amazing property

10.0

From the beautiful architecture, furnishings, lovely staff, Michelin star restaurant, and setting this hotel had everything we wanted. The hotel was within 15 min of Reynisfjara Beach, Vik and Black Sands Beach. Skógafoss was also within driving distance. Their Michelin star restaurant did not disappoint, we enjoyed every bite. They have their beach that we didn’t get to enjoy but will be back!

Amazing Value for an Amazing Stay

10.0

We had an excellent three night stay with the Umi Hotel. The food was amazing, the rooms were lovely warm and the free access to the yoga room and Sauna were a plus! The views of the mountains were stunning and the location is so close to many tourist locations. We will be back again!

A great hotel.

10.0

The hotel is lovely, very modern and relaxing. Amazing food quality and surroundings — beach and mountains. The staff was definitely the best thing about it, so personable, so accommodating and friendly. Definitely on our list of revisits next time we visit Iceland!
