Hotel Vík í Mýrdal
10/10 Excellent
"Very friendly staff and incredibly accommodating after our flight was cancelled they went above and beyond to arrange a room for another night.
The reception staff were very knowledgeable and informed us of a road closure for the next day so we were able to adjust our trip in advance and reduce stress.
They didn’t have to do this but made us feel very welcome and we very much enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend! "
