Nice hotel, rude staff

The cleanliness of the room and hotel were very good. Unfortunately, the front desk employee at check in was rude and condescending and not helpful at all. The only food options were from the restaurant menu and very limited. I would suggest having a full meal elsewhere before arriving here.

Beautiful location. Walked to the beach twice and it’s super close, convenient and it was empty both times. Room and hotel is very new and nice. Our bathroom shower floor was crackers/chipped and should have been repaired but other than that hotel and restaurant are excellent.

Many thanks for another wonderful stay at Hotel Buðir. Best location on the Snaefellsnes peninsula, spectacular views in every direction. Rooms are comfortable and well appointed with amazing views from every window. Either you're facing the mountains or the sea, or both. Best part - Hotel Buðir has the best bed linen and pillows of any hotel I've visited to date. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and professional. They went out of their way to ensure I had the best possible experience. Most importantly, the restaurant. The restaurant at Hotel Buðir is legendary for good reason. The menu showcases seasonal Icelandic cuisine, it is paired fown to the essentials. They offer both à la carte, and tasting menu (3 or 5 course). IMHO, the cuisine at Buðir is on par with any Michelin starred restaurant. The dinning room service is efficient, attentive and well informed. Don't miss the breakfast buffet, well curated- nobody goes hungry. Looking forward to my next adventure at Hotel Buðir.

A touch of luxury in an out-of-the-way location. Very quiet and peaceful, with views to the ocean and the tiny church. Dinner was delicious and breakfast very satisfying (although a bit expensive).

Sub-standard, overpriced, food mediocre, seemed to be a tourist trap. Stayed 2 nights, awakened by drilling and hammering every day. Won’t be back to Hotel Budir

I think this hotel is massively overrated. The food was average, and breakfast was low end and very expensive. The immediate grounds around the hotel are shabby and in disrepair. Our “superior” room lokked out over the trash dumpster and construction garbage. Active hammering and sawing woke us up at 7 am. I would never stay there again.

Fantastic location, rooms and atmosphere. Nicely refurbished and really nice rooms. The only minus was that our dining experience was not up to the standard that the rest of the hotel represented. 3 of us had the fish and it was dry and overcooked. One of us had the lamb and it was mostly fat. When we told the waitress, she shrugged her shoulders and offered us an extra napkin… I would stay here again, but I would plan dinner somewhere else.
