The Hill Hotel at Flúðir

Very good hotel. I will visit it again

We stayed here as a family for one night on our journey along the south coast of Iceland. The rooms were spacious and clean. There is a wonderful restaurant attached to the hotel. They have two hot tubs in the middle of the hotel courtyard, which we enjoyed after dinner. Our only tip is to make sure that the radiator in the room is turned off in summer unless you really like the room to be toasty! We turned our off.

We arrived here early, and the hotel was very accommodating and allowed us to check in early. The rooms a very large (compared to other Iceland hotels) and very comfortable. In the centre of the complex are two spa pools (if you don't have your own private pools) and they were simply relaxing and clean. After the relaxing spa, it was off to the bar and restaurant. The waiting staff made us feel really welcome, and the menu had a wide variety with different price points. The quality & quantity of the food was just right. I did find an unusual piece of decor amongst the pleasant art throughout. I would definitely stay here again.

Very nicely done hotel, with modern and elegant furnitured rooms. It feels really cosy and homey. There is a hot tub in the garden, which is open from early morning until late in the evening. There is also a good restaurant on site. Staff was very friendly. Location is strategic:few minutes away from the Secret Lagoon (where you get a discount as a hotel guest), within an hour drive to Geysir and Gullfoss.

Great service after our first room had an issue with the shower. Great evening meal. The hot tubs were fantastic.

This is not the review I wanted to write - unfortunately I cannot recommend staying at this hotel if you are a person of color. For context: my partner and I are American, I am white and my partner is visibly brown. After our stay I cannot help but feel the hotel was ******. Check in was fine at first but something felt off. The front desk attendant would not make eye contact with my partner, and whenever she asked a question, the desk attendant turned and told me. The real issues came when we came to eat at the hotel restaurant. My partner was the only non white person at the restaurant when this happened. The service we received was evidently worse than the tables around us. One table sat 30-45 minutes after us and got served before us. One of their entrees was the exact same as ours and the other entree we got was an appetizer from the starters menu!!! They got a hot entree. We did not get served for at least 15 minutes after them. We sat as servers went around checking in with each table and just walking past us. When their plates were cleared they got asked about dessert, ate it, and then left all before our plates were cleared. When they came to clear our plates they did not bother to ask if we wanted dessert and we continuously tried to get the server’s attention but they didn’t even look at us! The couple that sat at the same time left an hour before us. At first we thought maybe this was some kind of anti-American prejudice, which is understandable, I guess, Americans can be obnoxious. But nope, the table behind us was American, and they received doting service. In the end it’s that disparity in service that really got to me. If the kitchen was slow and the servers didn't have time to check on tables that would have been fine. The food was pretty good and we would have been okay waiting for it. But the clear difference in the way every other diner was treated in the restaurant from the only table with a non-white diner was impossible to look past. I hope it was something else but going over it again the only rationale I can think of for the way we were treated was racism.

Hotel was conveniently located along our route while visiting Iceland. It was reasonably priced, rooms were clean and the dining options were good - they were very flexible. My sister is vegetarian and they had no issues making up a dish for her (that wasn't on the menu). I highly recommend this property.

Ideal location to see Golden Circle and secret lagoon. Decent sized rooms cleaned daily. Two hot tubs available. Quiet and local shop nearby. Parking onsite.

Nice accomodation with cool inner garden with hot tubs. Comfortable beds, clean.
