Nice shared bathrooms, small kitchen. Sleeping pods in shared room nice with storage, light, curtains and convenient power outlet. Window was only ventilation for the room. CO2 levels unacceptable with three people in room (3000ppm) after roommate closed window when wind outside caused door to rattle.

Midgaurd Base Camp was the perfect location after a long day of travel, between the Golden Circle and the rest of southern Iceland. Parking was easy, delicious dinner and breakfast, comfortable beds. I stayed for one night and have no complaints, great value for money

Great stay at Midgard

This was an amazing hotel. It is perfect for persons going on excursion/trip. The rooms are simple but the beds are comfortable. They have a hot tub outside, which was more than welcome. The staff is very nice and accomodating.

Felt really modern. It was clean and fully featured. The shared bedroom was nice, with dedicated drawers to put our stuff (could be locked if you bring your own). There was bed curtains to block light and get some privacy. The hottub looked enticing, but it was fairly small fitting maybe like 6 people. I decided to skip because it was full with another group. They also had a tiny “kitchen” that isn’t mentioned anywhere which was convenient. However, note that it’s mainly just microwaves, and a kettle, with plates and other cookware. No stovetop or oven.

Family of four

Very clean and simple design. Plenty of space to keep our things. Comfortable mattresses and good choices of food. The kids, 6 and 8 loved the rooftop jacuzzi. Beautiful surroundings and friendly staff.
